[Boxing] Floyd Mayweather vs. Logan Paul - June 6

[babygun]

LOL.. so they are pricing it at $89.99 per PPV buy? It looks quite overpriced for me. The match between Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather in 2015 was available for almost the same rates. I don't know whether they will get 3 million buys this time, as they are expecting. But I have already made the decision, and I am neither going to watch it, or make a bet on any of the boxers.

Apparently early birds could opt-in for 24.99$, since 29/12 the price is already 59.99$. Some people even think this match can break the PPV record.
It costs 89.99$ to watch the PPV and get a T shirt of the match.

So 60 bucks to watch a match that nobody cares about lol.

[FlightyPouch]

sometimes wonder whether it is actually still justified to go full boxing at this late age. that cannot be healthy for any human being, certainly not at this age and these men have already been hit hard every week

Well, it might not be healthy but I think they have their own consultations about these fights, for example, the match of Mike Tyson where as far as I know have these rules about that which is proved in the link above. I don't think each party would be allowing this fight if this will not be having these kinds of rules so I think this will be fine.

Funny that we already have 28 pages of “nobody cares” 
Funny so see that some people really name an discuss advantages in boxing that Paul Logan has. Reach, tall, young? </insert “black-guys-coffin-dance-meme”

Im sure they and promoters make a lot of money on that fight, sure there will be fans who could afford spend 89,99$ on this, but sadly their contribution to boxing is a bit greater than zero.

If that's what your impression was, then I was right about him cause there's no way he will fight for the fans and don't give them what they wanted other than him giving us a hype base fight which will only fetch him money.
If he dont fight Pacman now he will only fight him in an exhibition fight just like Tyson and Ray.

Just look at the fighting career of Floyd Mayweather, he was avoiding Manny Pacquiao for a long time and then came to an agreement to fight Manny when he thought he will be retiring after the fight as he knew that it could be a big money fight and the fans finally had the opportunity to watch that fight after almost a decade of wanting to see them fight and Mayweather recently said he will not fight Manny again in a professional bout.

Mayweather avoided Manny then cause he was after two things the money and his boxing record. He sees Manny as a strong opponent which could spoil his undefeated record and he chooses to fight when he's preparing for his retirement to prevent a second maybe third fight between his and Pacman.

I was also thought that Floyd Mayweather have already decided to retire from these sport. I am also thinking that Floyd wouldn't give a boxing fan a satisfaction to watch a game against him and Manny Pacquiao. Maybe yes he was avoiding him to sustain his title as a non defeated fighter and yeah maybe he was worrying that at this time if he would give him a rematch maybe he'd defeat and couldn't sustain his title.

People like Mayweather don't totally retire from boxing, he will always come back whenever an opportunity to make free money arises but I don't see him care about his boxing record (undefeated title)ever since he announced his retirement and that why he once said to give Manny rematch out of retirement bout.

People do know on what would be the outcome of this fight! It is clear as day that Mayweather would gonna ass whopped Logan on this fight but of course

there would be limitations for that one and making the show a little bit entertaining for the fans at least and wont be complaining on what they had paid for.

Some will really be that dumb to believe that Logan can beat up a non-defeated boxer in the ring? I will cut my fingers if that thing happen. haha

The hype priced in this match. I wouldn't pay for that amount as this is an obvious match that's just for entertainment. No professional value for me because it's not counted as a professional match, no title but just for the sake of popularity.

They've already made a lot of money from it because there's no sits to be counted and they could just let it an unlimited purchase and could make them money as much as they can. I guess both of them already won with that price.

I believe so, some who does not know what is boxing and does not know who Mayweather is would think that Logan Paul can beat him with a lucky punch.
Mayweather will not be undefeated if he is not good enough, nothing can beat him in an exhibition fight, not on his sport.

However, it's not impossible, so bro, be ready with the screenshot of this. I'll get back to you when Mayweather loss.

I will cut my fingers if that thing happen. haha

Even Mike Tyson knows what's going to happen in this fight:

“Floyd is going to beat [Logan’s] f---ing ass,” Tyson told Paul and two other guests. “But it's going to be good, though. He's going to fight back … [Mayweather] might let you hit him a couple of times to make the show look good. There's always a danger when two men go into the ring. Anything can happen.”

Yeah, Floyd might allow Logan to tough him several times in the rope, but we all know that Floyd's defense is one of the best. So maybe just a few body shots from Logan let the crowd cheer, but I don't think that Floyd will allow himself to be hit in the face.

^^ Obviously, Mike Tyson really knows what this fight is for, just like what he did with RJJ, just to entertain the fans and have some good money for both of these fighters, specially Floyd who is know the king of exhibitions fights.

Definitely he is going to win the fight, but for the pleasure of the fans, he might extend the fight and allow Paul to hit him from time to time so that we will get excited.

It is more like a scripted WWE match, rather than a boxing match. The fans are being asked to pay such a huge amount ($89.99 is like a week's average salary here) and they will be disappointed if Logan gets knocked out in the first round. But there is hardly any chance for Logan to survive for more than a couple of minutes, if the fight is real. So $90 for just two minutes of boxing? Sounds too much for me.

Just to adds up the fun and entertainment.

Knowing that he can dictate the tempo of this fight, he may give that one for the pleasure as there are people who wanted him to hit that hard, but for sure after that hit he'll be in he's monster mode and be the champ as he usually do each time he enter the boxing ring. Making more entertainment means more money for him.

Just like what we've seen in the Conor fight, never was Mayweather hit that many punch, but I would say that it is all superficial. It that is professional fight, then Floyd will play defensive all night. But he want the boxing fans to have pleasure in seeing him receiving Conor's left and giving the notion that he might fall down. But Floyd is too intelligent, just want fans to get their money's worth.

Conor is a fighter, he knows how to box, got a professional license in boxing, therefore I think he can survive with Mayweather though he cannot beat him. Mayweather is just too smart and too good, him fighting a non boxer gives him an edge, just like him cherry picking his opponent to stay undefeated.

This is an accusation I have heard a lot of times (especially from Pacquiao fans), that Mayweather cherrypicks his opponents in order to remain undefeated. I have to say that there is no basis to such allegations. Pacquiao challenged Mayweather for a fight, which the latter accepted in 2015. He defeated Pacquiao fair and square. Pacquiao wanted a rematch, but Mayweather disagreed, saying that he don't want to fight the same opponent again and again.

They have their own decision, let's just respect that and not all fans also likes to see a rematch, but personally, I like to see a rematch as there's no bigger fights in boxing now, Manny and Mayweather is going to give fans a lot of excitement if they'll fight, but since Mayweather believe he is done with Pacquiao, so we can't expect he will fight with him anymore, he will just focus on fighters that he hasn't fought before, even if it's an obvious win by him.

Cherry picking of Mayweather of who he will going to fight inside in the boxing ring for me has some sort of reality. But if Floyd did stand on what he has said to never wanted to have a rematch with the same opponent then we should respect his insights.

What i have intended to tell either Mayweather has the intention to instill in himself the title of being undefeated fighter or whatsoever his reason behind he has it. But to be honest a rematch of Mayweather and Pacquiao fight was a good fight to watch for in case.

I don't think the general public cares about this fight either. It's the younger demographic they are trying to appeal to with this exhibition bout. Young people are familiar with Logan Paul's YouTube channel and will buy into the hype. These are the kind of events that make a ridiculous amount of money in the social media age.

He is done with professional boxing altogether and not just with Manny Pacquiao. He is already the richest sportsman in the history of professional boxing and he has maintained an unbeaten record till the end. Now Floyd Mayweather is almost 44 years old and he is no longer interested in resuming his boxing career. Let's respect the decision from the legend, rather than pestering for more matches. Anyway, he is taking part in exhibition matches such as this one against Logan Paul.

He hasn't return in professional boxing yet, but if ever he will return, he will make a lot of money as long as Manny is still active fighting, but I think he won't beat Manny anymore so better if he will just stay fighting in exhibition fight.

The aggressions of beating him still inside Manny's mind.

If ever that their might be a rematch, for sure Manny will really try he's best proving that he deserve the win, it's still fresh from  Manny fans that the decisions is not beung fairly judged, the only proving that is beating Floyd with possible KO.
