Support boxing this weekend

[Sparked_26]

I am a Conor McGregor fan but still want him to lose, and lose resoundingly on Saturday by stoppage.

At the same time I am annoyed with Mayweather for giving us this terrible fight. It's a disservice to boxing. As a fan of the sport of boxing you can't be pleased with this.

Fair enough to McGregor. I don't really see the thought process between him taking this fight and any one of us. Obviously he has the profile to make the dream come true but your average man, actually even woman, would fight Floyd for a $1 million never mind whatever Conor is getting.

But..........the one good thing to come out of it would be a definitive full stop to these kinds of bouts in the future. In which an elite MMA guy will hop into boxing into a megafight queue-jumping viable contenders in his boxing debut. It is just ridiculous.

As boxing fans we get involved and spend time and money in knowing the narrative of contenders and potential match-ups that can be made so to have someone who isn't even a boxer steal a march on them is rubbish.

I personally wish Floyd didn't come back. I can't see any real upside for boxing. Unless he's going to plough money earned into his promotional company or something

The Cotto fight.

There isn't anything else on TV that night worth watching.

Good!!!!!!!!!

Yes a fight that will have a big say on people's perception of boxing . Particularly with casual fans who will think ufc is better than boxing. Love or hate them casual fans bring money into boxing.

Dude, any fool who has boxed for 4 months will kick Conor's arse, this is not a fight, this is a farce!

Bet you will watch the fight?? Who is being conned?? Everyone knows the record of both fighters.

Nope Cotto/Kamegai then Cancel/GGG 24/7. Better than anything else on TV that night.

The casuals expecting a good fight are being conned. I have a better chance at the lottery people to re-draw the lotto numbers and win that jackpot that was already won than Floyd having an exciting fight.

I would if I was Conor.

The fight for him is literally 'here's $80 million'

For Floyd it is here's even more money but you have to exploit people
