I guess I'll make the thread since nobody else has.
Biggest gimmick fight in history? For sure.
I would be very interested in this fight if it were MMA rules, but a boxing match is an obvious win for Floyd.

Might have to move this to spam
The record books will read "Mayweather makes history reaching 50-0 (he'll retire again right off) against a man with zero professional boxing experience"
garbage.
Floyd isn't stupid. This is an easy win but also a massive money maker. The whole MMA crowd plus all the boxing fans and all the haters tuning in to hope Connor lands one on him. PPV will probably break records on the night. Its definitely the first time two most popular fighters of different sports clash. That's big money man.
Its daft but i tell you one thing. I will certainly watch it.
I'm shocked how many MMA fans are buying into this. I thought they were smarter. They don't know what they don't know.
This will be the biggest farce in boxing history, they're not getting my doe. Floyd will slaughter a bloke who has never once had a professional boxing match. I might as well put my hand up. I can understand McGregor going for this, he will never receive such a pay day again, but we're all gullible fools as fans putting up with this shit.
Put Floyd in with him under MMA conditions and he gets destroyed, under boxing rules McGregor is going to look totally inept and foolish.
Just thinking. If Floyd was the businessman he gets credit for being he would have spent his retirement years secretly training how to check kids, sprawl and get back to his feet. Then immediately after this debacle in the ring says "let's run it again in the Octagon". That shit would break the bank.
Does anyone think McGregor can win a round? I actually think Floyd can score a rare KO.
What a load of shit. Anyone that watches this is a full on retard. I have zero interest in seeing Floyd fight someone like this. He was taking the piss a lot over the last decade but this seals it all with a hateful kiss. He has no respect for boxing. He is like a banker that wants to laugh as he gets away with a robbery. James Toney would kick your arse, Floyd and you know it.
Speaking of James Toney at least he was brave enough to step onto another man's turf. Floyd is a boxer, who last time we saw him, was still somewhat up there in terms of skills. To try and make millions fighting someone who isn't even a boxer and has no professional experience is beyond the pale. Shame on anyone that buys into this. We as boxing fans should know better and not encourage it. This is just plain wrong.
Floyd and Conor know it's a farce, but also know that most people will watch it. Most of us would do the same thing in their position if we could make that kind of money
Sad thing is all the real interest will be in stacking the undercard with promoted fighters. If we're lucky Gervonta Davis defends his belt against a clothes mannequin from 'Old Navy' or maybe Badou Jack spars a heavy bag while Floyd stands in front of the camera talking about himself. Micky Bey vs the son of Doink the Clown maybeMayweather just renting out the sport with this trash. Floyd wins, yeh so what. Floyd loses..say a light fixture falls from ceiling..we'll never hear the end of it.
gimmicks like this make a fight fan very cynical. I'll be watching Cotto vs Kamegai
