Sounds about right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex 30458 Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 I think it'll be close again and I don't think it was the robbery some made out (think GGG won a close contest though). The problem was that ridiculous 118-110 scorecard in favour of Canelo. Tbh, I really like both boxers so don't have a massive preference but would probably like to see GGG win as I think he deserved to shade the first one. A good fight with a clear(er) winner would be good with, like I said, me not being too bothered either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's that too, certainly ducked him for a bit anyway and think him or De La Hoya at least were holding on hoping age would catch up with GGG. Which it may have done a little bit.

ewerk 26471 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Don't think it would be that lucrative for him. Surely he'd have to fight a UFC fighter and the organisation would take the lion's share of the revenue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be the biggest selling event in UFC history if he fought CM, I doubt they'd be demanding a prohibitive cut it wouldn't make any sense for them.

ewerk 26471 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 It's all about precedent though. If they offer him a deal miles above what they offer any other fighter then somewhere along the line there'll be someone else making those sorts of demands. Given that the highest grossing UFC fight in history generated just $82m in PPVs they're a long way off offering Mayweather hundreds of millions IMO.

Dr Gloom 19839 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 i think he cares more about money than any of that. would it defo even have to go through UFC? or could it not just be a standalone MMA bout? if mayweather's promoters could take over the logistics, people would buy PPVs - just as they did last time.

Ken 119 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 McGregor is contracted to the UFC so unless he wants to get sued it would have to be in the UFC. It won't happen. Mayweather is taking the piss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 26471 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Given that he was wearing Paddy Power shorts in the clip and asks 'What are the odds, Paddy?' I'm fairly sure it's a paid promotion for PP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom 13883 Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 I'm a bit surprised as how weak his punching is. You'd have thought a bloke called Cheeseman would be batting lads all over as soon as he could speak. Anyway looking forward to Buatsi later.

TheGingerQuiff 2412 Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Boxing is bollocks sometimes like. One of the judges there had him winning every round, load of shit. For supposedly one of the hottest prospects he looks average at besr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 26471 Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 So I think last night proved that Eubank Jr is nowhere near the top level in boxing. His speed got him through the super middleweights so far but his lack of a boxing brain has shown him up. I can’t see where he can go from here but he definitely needs to get rid of his father.

Dr Gloom 19839 Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Is there a sport today that isn’t dirty? http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/boxing/43296154 Im surprised more hasn’t come out against footballers tbh, the pace the game is played at today at the highest level seems superhuman. I’d be very surprised if rhe top players weren’t being pumped with performance enhancing drugs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
