What's with the notion that we should root for Floyd just because he's a boxer?

      sorry hectari, just because you and hype job are doing that doesn't mean I would. I am a boxing fan and would root for the boxer regardless.

        Literally makes our sport a laughing stock and a joke.
        fair enough, lots of others seem to share your opinion so im in the minority. just cant say i'd be embarrassed by it but i think theres no chance of it happening.the whole thing is a circus anyway and people can always say oh floyd was old and inactive. wish the event had never happened, inevitably its going to be a one sided beatdown and people are gonna moan about being conned. its overshadowing the legitimate fights. noones talking about GGG v canelo

          I agree with that but at the end of the day the best thing that can happen is Floyd beat McGregor and in style. Hopefully by KO..

          So everyone knows that oh, this sport is easy? No it's not easy now **** off back to UFC where you belong with your black eyes and this is a message to any UFC guy in the future.

          Mayweather losing would be the total opposite effect. Oh Conor just walsted in and beat the guy that no one else could? 20 years and no one could beat him and Conor walks in with no experience at any level and does?
          So maybe I can do it it's that much of a joke of a sport. Maybe we all should just come over and beat these jokes who "aren't real fighters" in their "easy sport"

            perception is floyd is still the best boxer in the world so if mcgregor won people would think the skill level of fighters in boxing is relatively low ,

              Watching Mayweather get knocked out by McGregor would be hilarious. And then watching other MMA fighters come over to boxing thinking they can do the same, only to get beaten every time, would also be hilarious.

                Boy I don't have time to trawl through posts but I've praised Thurman, Broner and even gave Ward props after Kovalev.

                  at first i didnt care much but now i do want to see floyd toy with mcgregor and make him look ****** before putting him away it would be a beautiful sight

                  the way mcgregors talking im not surprised some casuals are thinking he will win but then you watch the sparring footage and the striking ability of the people he beat and you see the reality floyds on another level

                    The boy deserves to be humiliated, it would be fantastic if McGregor knocked him out.
                    This has nothing to do with boxing vs MMA to you.

                    All you see is black vs white. Literally
