    Floyd in a real fight is worth the price of admission alone.

    Nobody walks down Floyd though for a reason.

    They try get peppered then survival mode seems to set in.

    The fight may not be a real fight with integrity. Apparently mayweather and conor are business partners/friends behind cameras laughing at all gullible public.

    Curiously, does any poster actually believe that ANY boxing match is a real fight "with integrity?"

    If they do, they are mistaken. Experience in the boxing world tells anyone that the promoters are in charge, they ALWAYS have been. People will debate it all day long, but the truth is that it's not debatable and hasn't been for decades.

    Floyd knows this and bought out the contract under Arum for more than $700K so that he could promote himself.

    It was a wise buyout given all he's earned. It's also a big reason he hasn't lost.

    I think he means as far as a fix.

    That's what floyds speech was about. They watched that Diaz fight one and saw weakness. I guarantee it they think they'll break Conor. This could be bad for Conor his ego at least.
    Thats why Paulie told bring your balls saturday.

    Why stitch Duran (former UFC cut man) said Mcgregor is going to need a good cut man.

    All the Boxing people know this is going to be a decent beating.

    At least that's what's expected.
    Just think that Floyd will let it go at least 6, probably 8, and may just let it go all 12. No need to take a chance. Conor will get beat up.

    I think Floyd waits until the 4th to start doing real damage. He will already be up 3-0. Eh, he may wait until the 5th-6th.

    Wear him out then put on a bit of a show so fans don't think they wasted their money. Even though, they did. Put a nice show on in the 7th-9th rounds.

    Then we will see what Conor has in the tank. May let him save face, so he can line up some other fight in a way that Floyd makes money but doesn't have to fight. Who knows. It's all a show. Floyd isn't losing, just depends how his team decided how he wins. Probably with consultation from Conor's team, and Dana.

    ^Charles Barkely is always in attendance at all the Floyd Mayweather fights.. I can't see him being a bone head and betting on white boy McGregor.. It's a black thang ...

    seemed like conor was trying extra hard to get inside floyd's head but think about the career that floyd's had, shit talking isn't going to affect him now.

    For conspiracy people calling for a fix...how about they accidentally clash heads a few times early on, causing big cuts and it gets stopped? Would make for a natural rematch.

    I love boxing and enjoyed Floyd during his prime. After Canelo he should have walked away. It is all about legacy and dollars for him now. This should be an exhibition for him. A loss wipes out his legacy forever. End of story. As much as I would like to see him get beat, I can't see it happening.

    Shitty undercard too. Want to watch Davis and see if he looks legit.
