Floyd is all about the money, just so happened he was a damn fine boxer too. He's also a massive bellend. I'm not surprised he's entertaining it actually.

It shows how dumb the general public really are and they are all buying it. The 2 silly YouTube brothers are masters of promotion and they have just scored again. Surprised that Mayweather is part of the charade but I guess “money” has now ran out.

Just want one of these You Tubers to get a serious beating tbh so they fucking knock it on the head. It won't happen in boxing though, it would get stopped too soon. Look at CM Punk jumping over to UFC and getting a beating for example. Although that was wrong too and he should never have been put in the octagon with anyone.

Jake Paul probably won't land a punch on Mayweather.

It's about huge amounts of money and staying 'relevant' in some way, that's all.

This the same Mayweather who fought Bigshow and McGregor?
Of course it’s all about the money. And very easy money at that.

I wanna see it happen just so Paul gets knocked the fuck out.
Annoying prick. Well, both of them.

It’s purely about money. The times when people cared about the sport itself are gone, and why should they?
I don’t agree with the Logan and jake Paul fanfare but they have a legitimate fanbase who will pay to watch them .

It’s a generational thing isn’t it. Kids today are entertained by YouTubers

I know. It’s utterly bizarre.

Yeah, I'd imagine it's just their fan base from Youtube who would follow them regardless of whatever they decide to do next
Wouldn't ever pay or go out of my way to watch one of their fights, but would be entertaining to see them get absolutely battered by experienced professionals. That might also be another proportion of their audience

Can't get my head around anyone paying to watch a circus like this, let alone enough to give him that sort of payday.

It's just a money-making exhibition. Mayweather isn't going to risk his proper reputation against a guy that much bigger either in case he gets a lucky punch. The weight disparity means it couldn't be sanctioned as a normal fight either.
Mayweather will just find another clown to fight in his exhibition fight. Not sure why he bothers he's reportedly made nearly 900m out of boxing already

Yep, bang on. Makes such a mockery of boxing.
Hopefully someone comes out and just retires both brothers boxing careers early

Said on Talksport earlier that the younger bellend (Jake Paul?!?) was the third highest earner in boxing in the last year. Insane.

Imagine busting your bollocks every day since you were a kid, honing your craft, eating right, pounding the pavements at all hours. Hitting the heavy bag endlessly, sparring till your body felt like jelly. Working your way through the ranks, dedicating the best part of your life to a sport, while your mates were out getting pissed and chasing skirt, only to see a pair of wallopers like these two rock up and make a fortune.

Why not? There are loads of wrestlers-mma crossovers?

See, I'm not so sure.
Boxing is a business sadly. It's all about money and promotion. I've seen questions like 'why are sky showing this?'. Simples. People will watch.
It's not a great advert for boxing, no. But spare me this 'mockery of the sport' crap when you see dodgy and outright bent decisions left right and centre!

CM punk had no proper combat sports background and he just got a pasting. Brock Lesnar on the contrary was a great wrestler, as in proper wrestling so had some proper training and was a top level competitor in ufc. 2 WWE fellas with very different levels in real fighting. I don't know of any others tbf. You may well educate me on it.

Yeah, that's a fair point.
Just feels like anyone who's got a half decent fan base can get a big fight night pay off, but like you say, money talks. In football too.
Saying that, I'd pay good money to see Michael Doyle in the ring for 12 rounds

Odds on a rematch? How do people fall for this shit? From what I can see on twitter they spent more time hugging than boxing.
