As I'm sure everyone here realises, it all about the money; when it comes to this, Mayweather, Pacquiao, McGregor, they're all the same. They'll do, say or act however is required to maximise their revenue. This is the "sport entertainment" business.

I don’t believe a second Mayweather vs McGregor fight will generate huge amount of money. The majority of people who paid to see the first fight believed McGregor would knock Mayweather out, now they know the truth that McGregor will never win against any elite boxer. I might give McGregor a chance against Malignaggi though.Comment

Even though the guy grossed something like $750M BEFORE McGregor? Even though McGregor earned like 20 times what he ever made in UFC by boxing Mayweather? How do you define "need" in this context?Comment

Forbes has Mayweather earning $915 million in the past decade, the highest paid athlete on the planet. It’s safe to say he doesn’t need anyone.Comment

I thought that much was obvious, considering that all financial records in the sport have his name on them, and the other money men in the sport all took smaller shares and still earned their highest paydays with him. That's why I'm trying to get to the bottom of what Mayweather "needing" other fighters means. "Need" has to be a placeholder for another word lolComment
