    They don't test really overseas. Would still like to see it.

        What's wrong with a fighter making a bit of cash in an exhibition? People act like this is a new thing. Retired fighters have been doing exhibitions for a very long time. Mike Tyson had an exhibition tour.

          You know exactly why they have a problem with it. They attribute it to one man...he who shall remain unnamed.

            At least it's only an exhibition, not a fully sanctioned fight like Benn's going to have.

              Just noticed his son's quote at the bottom, "the Bible don't tell no lies", lol. I know plenty other storybooks featuring mystical bearded dudes that have a similar level of believe-ability, but people don't worship the likes of Gandalf and Dumbledore (at least I hope they don't).

                Japan loves the freak fights See Bob Sapp, Akebono, Hong Man Choi, Giant Silva, Gabi Garcia vs way smaller and older opponents etc.

                This is only an exhibition though, so its not a big deal I guess

                  If these fighters didn't lose so many brain cells from their fighting career they'll be smart enough to invest the money they've made for they want have to do these exhibition fights

                    lol...He's showing people how to get paid! What's wrong with that? The guy's a brilliant businessman. If the people of Japan are willing to pay for it, then screw what everybody else thinks or says.
                    Each poster on here that would honestly turn down a opportunity to make $9M in a nine minute boxing exhibition speak up.
