Should NSAC be held accountable...

[Ray*]

NSAC will be crucified if something fatal happens. Not only they "sanctioned" a best 49-0 boxer to fight a newbie 0-0 boxer, they even changed the rule for the normal 10 oz. gloves to be replaced with 8 oz. gloves. A dangerous exception to the rules.

Boxing has the dumbest fans in all sports. They eat the s.hit fights the boxing orgs, promoters, cherry picker boxers served them. Worst of all, these dumb boxing fans even supported and will buy this $100 joke, farce fight.

Yes Boxing fans are dumb but they are NOT that dumb in regards to this fight. I feel a lot of MMA fans are been taken advantage of though.

As normal, your an imbecile, this wouldn't be going ahead if the NSAC didn't sanction it, 49-0 vs 0-0, this fight has been sanctioned for one reason, CASH, if Connor gets a brain bleed, how will explain why this was allowed to happen, considering they said Rohan Murdock WBO#6 was too much of a mismatch for Andre ward, everything will land firmly in the lap of the NSAC should something go wrong

The same NSAC approved 25-3 Ramirez against 0-0 Lomachenko. Should that fight have been sanctioned given the records?

NSAc had no choice given the amount of money this thing looks to be generating.

I agree that a lot of MMA fans will buy this joke fight but some boxing fans will buy it too... For example in this forum alone ...

I think thats more debatable as Loma had a wealth of amateur experience + 2 gold medals. Same sorta situation with Floyd Patterson vs Peter Radamacher back in the day. The RJJ vs MMA guy of a year or so ago would be much much more questionable as I don't believe that guy had any recent amateur boxing experience & was a pretty sh^t MMA fighter at that with a 6-3 record in a bs mma league.

Idk if there is an exact science to it, but I'd suggest anyone without any recent amateur experience probably shouldn't be fighting any top 50, top 100 boxer in his pro debut.

And I can see an argument that suggests anyone whatever their level of amateur success shouldn't have been fighting Floyd Patterson or the guy Loma turned pro against.

Idk about this. I mean thats clearly whats driving the car right now, but its not like they couldn't kill it in its tracks if they had wanted to. I mean if Donald Trump was trying to fight Anthony Joshua I think there'd be solid money to go check that out too, but they'd need a pretty high level of no f#cks given for the safety of NSAC licensed boxers to allow that fight to go down.

This is so dumb. Conor's health isn't in any more danger than it normally would be just because he's 0-0 in boxing; There's no logical basis to that at all. Besides, Conor wanted the fight.

Yea the switch in glove size is gonna look BADDDDDD if something happens to Conor. Or hell even Floyd for this specific item. I think this one looks bad & unnecessary that they changed the rules if anything happens to either guy for this one.

Although listening to the actual hearing it sounds like they pulled the oz needed for certain weights completely out of their ass & they may even be switching them at some point lol so idk wtf is the big deal with oz on particular fights after seeing that. Seems like you should be able to legit get MMA gloves in a boxing match if you merely ask & both fighters want it just about.

That doesn't matter. If something bad happens people will connect dots that may or may not make sense. Its a bad look & there are bread crumbs leading to a bunch of mfers that favored money over safety with this fight & that'll be problem for the NSAC if something bad happens to Conor (or hell even Floyd with the switch to the 8oz gloves for no real reason like I just brought up).

[Zaroku]

What if.... the impossible happens and Floyd gets seriously effed up... He wanted 8 and got 8 oz gloves.

Sure, some questions would be asked and they wouldl take some heat but it wouldn't change a thing. Mismatches are made in boxing all the time even when the money isn't huge. Conor isn't a pro boxer but he is a rugged pro fighter who has proven he can defend himself and take punishment. I have no problem with them allowing this fight and would have been disappointed if they didn't allow it. I expect it to be a one sided win for Mayweather but I am still very interested to see how the fight actually plays out. Conor has scored enough brutal KOs with his fists in cage fights to be taken seriously. Mayweather is training hard for this fight as usual. Floyd Patterson once defended his world heavyweight title against an amateur champion boxer who had never had a pro fight. Many didn't like it but the fight was allowed and it was no big deal. Patterson was knocked down before he knocked the guy out.

[GhostofDempsey]

Considering the NSAC has turned down fights in the past they deemed mismatches, yes, they will have blood on their hands and she be held accountable. Boxing is not a game, and it is not a sport that should be exploited because of how many zeroes are on the end of a paycheck. But we all know Nevada is corrupt as hell, likely one big reason Floyd won't fight outside of that state.
