    went to the Conor-Aldo press tour event in Boston a few years ago, was in a beautiful old theater in Uphams Corner, of all places. Was so much fun, mostly just a shit-ton of Conor ridiculing Aldo mercilessly for the entire thing. The press tour for this one will be exponentially bigger, and probably a shit-ton of fun if you can get to it in your area.

    I am a degen but not touching either side of this with a dollar. Also wouldnt spend 1k to go to the fight even with prime seats. Will of course add to their pockets as will buy the PPV with drunk friends.

    I actually think the PPV numbers will be weaker than expected as I think the majority of it will come from UFC fans which is a much smaller market than boxing. I dont think the boxing fan is going to shell out the cash for this . Ironically, I dont think it is the main event that convinces the boxing fan to buy this. i think they actually need a "real" undercard fight to get the boxing fan that is on the edge about whether to buy this or not.

    There isn't a bigger lock on the planet than Mayweather at -685.

    If you are really fearful of a conspiracy or something, just the fight taking place is -900.

    Seems like free money either way to me if you have a nice chunk to put out.

    Yep. I am a huge boxing fan, and I will be in bed long before this charade even starts. I view this as when the Yankees play some random college team in Florida during Spring Training. It's a total gimmick. I get why Floyd is doing this, he is saying if someone is going to give him $200M, he is going to do it, even if its basically an exhibition. I'll just watch Hulk Hogan v Rocky Balboa from Rocky III.

    Whos on the undercard? I think this is where I am right now. I'd probably buy this shit show if theres a fight on the undercard that I want to see.

    I dont think they have announced it which is a fail with tickets on sale and a month left. They could put together something relatively cheap but they need this to get the boxing crowd to purchase. It is retarded and seems like common sense to me.

    Gervante "Tank" Davis is fighting someone, just announced today.

    He is a fucking beast.

    That is a start. Imagine if they could pull off a Manny/Jeff Horn rematch in time. Never going to happen but something like that would do it.

    I understand what you're saying. I haven't lost any huge money betting, ever, really. Because I don't bet huge money....because I don't have huge money.

    But this whole goddamn thing just feels like a circus. Everything about this screams "free money" betting on Mayweather. But the whole shit just feels off to me.

    I have no idea what's going to happen, but it just feels like something stupid is going to happen that makes this out to be the joke that most of us believe that it is.

    But make no mistake, if this turns out to be an actual fight, and not just some exhibition, Mayweather is going to beat the living shit out of McGregor.

    see that's what I asked earlier...seems the bet would be to take connor at plus money just because of the batshit crazy stuff that happens in boxing...especially after what we witnessed last week...just wondering if it's enough of a plus price to fire on...

    the only issue with that whole conspiracy theory is that Floyd is undefeated and I'm gonna guess that it'd be a cold day in hell before he'd want to give that up to some MMA guy...

    See, and that's the thing. If there's one thing that trumps Floyd's love of money, it's how much he loves himself, and that perfect record.

    There's no goddamn way he lays down in this fight. No chance.

    Everything I know about fighting tells me that Floyd can end this fight when he wants to. It's simply a mismatch in a boxing ring. But to make any real money you're going to need to predict the outcome. And Floyd, despite the fact that he most certainly CAN finish McGregor, may very well be content with just carrying Conor through the fight.

    I'm not sure these two won't be in the locker room laughing before and after the fight, riding in the same limo to the bank.

    My issue isn't that I don't want to bet against Conor, it's that I don't know what the fuck Mayweather wants out of this fight.
