That's not a farce

Cross training was hardly heard of back then

Grappling is intricated


Boxing is more intricated ergo my point. People can learn to wrestle and grapple - being a top boxing talent takes a lifetime.

People can strike but they can't box...but at least they can strike to a limited brawler degree.

Boxers are lost on the ground...so you would never have that fight of no holds barred, boring.

Which is why this fight isn't a fight. It's an insult to boxing because its just boxing. It presupposes that a striker in MMA can box professionals let alone Mayweather and just like Mayweather in wrestling would be a joke.

This fight is a giant joke on America...cash grab by both sides and people will buy it.

GGG vs Canelo is the much better fight but getting zero buzz. This fight may save boxing for another few years...and I'm a boxing fan (poor me).

Uh huh.

Largest gate in terms of tickets sold or total ticket revenue?

Are you seriously asking me this?

Yup. I'm assuming revenue, but who knows. Either way, I seriously doubt it's the largest gate in boxing history. It has to top $72mil.

Your insider sources say it's already surpassed $72mil and no one on the internet is talking about it?

What in the frick are you talking about? The guy you responded to was talking about the GGG Canelo fight.

ETA: On a related note, if the only people who know that it's the largest gate in history are insiders, how are we supposed to "know the facts before you start another stupid post on this fight"?

So did mcgregor knock down Pauli malinaggi in one of their recent sparring sessions?

Or was this some bs photo of Pauli on the ground after a shove by Conor?
