So there's this big boxing fight going down tonight. This one very rich guy vs some guy I've never heard of. They fight like this maybe once or twice a year, yet still, this Mayweahter fella seems to be making more money than Steve Jobs did.

Where does the money come from? How can so few fights rake in those amounts of money for a sport that, not a whole lot of people really get to watch? I just can't for the life of me understand how so few fights a year generates the amounts of money it apparently does.
 
Anyone know what time the actual fight will start? Can't be wasting my time on all the build up.
 
One guy noticeably bigger and taller. Pacquiao had to box out of his skin to win. Glad I didn't stay up all night!
 
I downloaded it this morning and just watched it. I admire Mayweather's skill but anybody paying big money to watch him fight is a mug, it's not exciting and he knows it!
 
It was a fight between two guys with no desire to go on and push the extra mile to win. Both were happy with the pay cheque and knew they could make a lot of money at the end of their careers. Wouldnt surprise me if they both retired. It was obvious Mayweather would win this on points.

I didn't think it was that bad - it's always good seeing a GHod botherer getting punched.
 
Mayweather, the woman-beater, thanked GHod. clown shoe.Hahahahaha. Laughable. He didn't fight. He dodged. Ali was the King of rope-a-dope, dancing away dancing away, but then the man would strike and it was poetry. Mayweather was like the George Graham Arsenal of boxing. Tedious.

It wasn't bad, I quite enjoyed it because Mayweather is great at what he does. But I don't think it was good value for money for those that stumped up the cash.

Give me the old ITV British middleweight scene from 20-odd years ago, any day of the week!

Some on social media have suggested that both boxers have a vested interest in a big money rematch taking place, therefore the lack of killer performances. Which isn't exactly out of the realms of possiblity.

I can't see that. It was too easy for Mayweather, I don't think there'd be enough interest in a re-match.
 
$90 PPV here, mayweather fought exactly as he always has, Pac had no gameplan, freddie roach should be disappointed with himself for never giving his fighter a chance. more interesting to see the celebs ringside
