Maybe the patriots can play a high school team for $100 pay per view.
What a joke.
That's why a lot of people was able to avoid the price and see it for free on social media. Most people felt it would disappoint and was quickly looking for other options to see the fight.
Boxing is a brutal sport but champions have detailed strategies that one could view as requiring above average intelligence. I don't like Floyd at all, but his boxing intelligence is very high. Floyd is not a fraud but he refuses to put himself at risk, hence why floyd is not liked. Going for the knockout by throwing bombs and throwing risk to the wind is an instant crowd pleaser but that strategy is detrimental to your health. I hate watching Floyd too, but i absolutely loved arturo gatti...man, I miss that guy!
It's not boxing's fault you fell for it. Anybody who knows anything knew that Connor stood no chance against money. This whole thing was a setup from the get go.
Any real boxing fan knows the real fights to watch were kovalev vs ward and GGG vs Canelo.
Mayweather would stand no chance against GGG's power.
A 27 year old Mayweather would outbox GGG to a unanimous decision.
I just can't believe how terrible machregor was. Beyond a joke. I expected at least a little better after a year of training.
Also just read mayweather tried betting 400 grand on himself to win in the 10th I think? The bet wasn't accepted. 9 rounds of that fight were thrown.
It was well-known ahead of time McGregor wasn't hiring any boxing trainers for the bout, going with his long-time team instead. So it went exactly as expected and Floyd only accepted due to the low risk and big payday. Wouldn't you?
I don't think anyone is disputing the result, which was predictable as they come. I think many people are annoyed by the fact that Mayweather fought a guy with no professional boxing experience in order to beat Rocky Marciano's record and retire 50-0.
Willie Pep went I think 63-0 before his first loss. Ray Robinson was like 130-1. Ricardo Lopez was 51-0. There are many others out there that I can't think of at the moment. I don't know why people put so much emphasis on Marciano's record.
