""Floyd's and Conor's motivation is clear. It's money,"
After this fight, neither of them will need us anymore. Floyd will go back to retirement -- presumably for good this time with another nine-figure paycheck -- and Conor will go back to the UFC. It's a win-win for them.
It's a lose-lose for us. We'll be $100 lighter and we will have squandered another opportunity to bring boxing back to its rightful place as the sport of kings.
At this point, only we can shut the circus down by making it clear that we won't pay to see a joke of a fight and telling our casual-fan friends that they shouldn't either.""

I started this because I was frustrated by the direction of our sport but it feels like the frustration is shared by so many of you. I am reading through your thoughts on this fight and it is clear that people still care deeply about boxing integrity. Please know that this momentum belongs to you and I am just trying to keep up with the conversation.

This circus is making a mockery of the sport...all for a buck. Many fighter have trained since they were single digits and this guy comes marching into boxing with a big mouth for a large main event PPV payday?! That is just ridiculous.
I will never pay again to watch a mayweather fight / FAKE FIGHT.
Major joke, ufc crossover really, fight Pacquiao again, this time engage in a fight, I Know it's late in the game, but more of a real boxing display within the same era, real boxing, not a ridiculous meaningless joke of a so called fight, even when you win the staged fight, it will not be accepted as your silly 50-0 meaningless record, realistically can not be accepted.
I will not purchase the PPV event!
This is just one opinion, but I dont care what Mcgregor says, He is a racist, white supremacist piece of garbage who shows it through all his jokes like "shine my shoes" and references to slavery with the allusion of him taking the position of white man on top. Hes insulted whole continent of people while hiding behind his Irish flag. Lets get one thing straight. He is not a representation of that country. He is just one person who is consciously representing those who see themselves as the superior white establishment, Dont give this clown your money.
If you're thinking of attending or buying PPV please consider donating your money to charity instead. You have been brainwashed to make these men 100's of millions whilst kids are starving to death!
My favorite sport to watch, but that fight is an embarrassment to the sport! I will not b e paying to watch that mess!

I'm boycotting this event and would urge the masses to give this equal consideration. This is nothing more than a money making scheme and does nothing for boxing or for the ecosystem that supports it.
