    It’s an ex pro moving around the ring with a celebrity. If people wanna pay for it and it entertains them, good for them. If people don’t wanna buy it, then they won’t.

    The current state of boxing would be in a much better place of fighters like Spence and Crawford would fight each other, that’s the real problem with boxing, not a retired fighter sparring YouTubers.
    deathofaclown showing once again why he's one of the best posters on here.

    I agree with every word.

      Mayweather is all about making the most money possible and he never keep that a secret. He does not care about what is good for boxing. He only cares about getting richer than the very rich man he already is. But he is not the only one making joke fights that hurts boxing's credibility. That ugly fight between washed up 50 something Jones and Tyson made a fortune and we are in for more old timer fights like that. The Paul brothers are making more money than most excellent pro boxers and they can't even fight worth a damn. As long as these joke fights make huge money they are going to get made and that is just the way things are. Fortunately good fights between good prime boxers are still being made too. It is up to fans what they want to watch.

        Thousands of capable boxers are currently facing financial ruin due to global economic conditions, but the platform has been offered to a non boxer again.

        Considering the wealth and influence floyd already has, this is quite shameful really.
        This is the normal objective point of view here. To bad so many other people are dumb ass fanboys.

        I get making money off your name but disrespecting what got you there in the first place instead of growing it? Damn. Theres only so many times you can have these "exhibitions" before they are embarassing.

        Like could you imagine if Floyd did something positive where he would have to work and give back.

        For example. Look how Ultimate fighter built UFCs brand. You have the big names participate. Those who parcipate because their own fighter.

        And that's not saying Ultimate fighter made UFC. Its saying they expanded the audience and got people invested.

              Yeah, dis GGG for fighting actual boxers who are contenders for his world title but defend Floyd for fighting Youtubers who are 0-2. Sounds about right for you and those like you

                Yep.. Us Floyd fans are content with whatever Floyd does in retirement. Kudos and all the best to him.

                  You were also content with Floyd never fighting real threats at their best after maybe Corrales and Castillo (lost)

                  And: What's my ilk? Someone with half a brain?

                      Yes, I was Ok with him cherrypicking all his career. Even Corrales was a soft touch. Cool now?

                      Do you even have half a brain?
