Secondly, he's risking humiliation and tarnishing his career for the big payday, and he'd be risking that payday. If he starts kicking and grappling, he could get arrested and the financial punishment would be severe. If he's losing, he'll take his beating, cash his check, and decide whether he wants to be in a cage again.

Strange that he has several of his Bugatti Veyrons up for sale and now a fight. Is he getting financial advice from Mike Tyson?

It is a stunning development given that Mayweather, the greatest boxer of his era, had said he was retired after compiling a 49-0 pro record from 1996 through 2015. But with a fight which could pay each man in excess of $100 million, he reconsidered.
For excess of $100 million each why wouldnt they do this. Floyd easily wins a boring boxing match. Yawn Just imagine what they could make if it was MMA fight rules so Floyd would rely on his boxing skills while McGregor could utilize his MMA background. That would be tempting to buy, but Floyd would never do that. McGregor knows he cant win a straight up boxing match with Floyd but he doesnt care about that, hes $100 million+ richer Last edited by NWTF; 06-14-2017 at 06:53 PM.. |

The press conference will be the highlight of this ordeal.

I'm actually thinking Floyd knocks him out in the middle rounds after McG is gassed and frustrated.
He is going to be able to land some crystal clean shots. I would say that this fight is dumb for his career, but can you really call a $100M pay day a bad career move? My God, I would love to see FM Jr sitting on his ass staring into a flashlight |

I'm not counting McGregor completely out because of punchers chance/throwing angles Floyd might not be used to and what not, but this seems like a negotiation of how much $$$ it would take for McGregor to go in and get clowned, which he seems OK with. People have tomato canned for MUCH less $$$. MMA is still little brother to boxing no matter how many Afllication shirts get sold. This looks like a payout for both sides.

I wonder if McGregor's precision will work vs Mayweather's running pussy tactics.

McGregor is going to be a zombie by the 4th round trying to keep up with the speed of Mayweather.
I get why McGregor is doing this though. Even with a loss, the money he will make will set him up for at least a couple years with the way he spends money. |

Probably end as well as the Donovan Bailey/Michael Johnson super race.
