    Hey get crawford a paul brother fight so he can continue fighting low risk yet hell finally get fans hahaha seriously these exhibitions should only be amongst even or intrugue playing field combat vs combat retired champ vs retired champ. Not this non fighter vs former champ thats a media whore. Like it be intigiung if they were fighting like anderson silva under boxing rules. Yet non striking sports trying to challenge a prof trained striker doesnt work well ever. I could understand if paul had golden gloves background but doesnt even have that. Please dont by this scam of paul vs mayweather

      for free you say

      learn something
      Jack Dempsey made a comeback tour across America after his defeats to Gene Tunney. It brought out the crowds and brought in the cash.

        Not really, there is gap in the market. And they are filling that gap for both casual and real boxing fans. When boxing gets it's act together then this sort of fights would be where it is meant to be. If boxing continue with its politics then even female boxing would take over the males if the best fights the best.

            Of course it’s insulting but who cares. Don’t watch it, don’t comment on it and don’t promote it and you will be ok. Personally he should be fighting the other brother( like that makes a difference) but I will stream it and see the fight for what it is. No point getting emotional and upset about the event. We would all do it given the opportunity. In fact I’m not even greedy ,I would do it for 30% Mayweather is receiving

                It’s weird to me. This was just a bunch of casuals having a little fun with each other. Now Mayweather has found a way to interject himself. Kind of ruins the fun when the pro warriors want to come in and beat up the civilians. I guess the interesting point is how big Logan is in comparison to Floyd. But considering what he did to the bigshow...

                  - -What grade U in?

                  TBE TUE has made the transition from orchestrated TBA MGM title fights to pure Camp Orchestration.

                  The poster child for the current state of boxing. If it makes money it makes sense esp given Paulie the A side for now.

                    I think it is insulting to boxing but it is not against the law and the promoters can put on as many garbage joke circus act fights as they want. Nobody has to buy these weird fights. I think Jones vs Tyson was just as insulting but these type of fights make all involved good money and as long as they do we are stuck with them. When it is free I watch them myself out of curiosity for as long as I can stand watching garbage but much rather watch legit fights between top pro boxers in their prime and not 50 something years old and long retired champions.

                      I think shields vs floyd is the better fight, logan don't even know how to throw a punch.
