I am ready to be entertained.

Dana says the fight will be held at the T-Mobile arena - 154 pounds.

ESPN graphic I saw read: "Projected ticket sales $60.5 million" what does that mean, sales at the arena? I'd have to think ppv brings much more than that

I feel like there is a huge chance Floyd tries to trick Conor. Get Conor Distracted while in regulation and pop him when he's not looking.

2.5 months seems like eough time for a buildup and august 26th seems like a great date because it will be able to dominate the sports media cycle during the dog days of summer

everyone will be in for the press conf

Bum of the month for Floyd.

McGregor looks just like you'd expect in that video, easy picking for the best amateurs.

Lol anyone that pays for this.

yeah if he shows up like that v Floyd is going to be horrible, I think I posted here before, but it will probably look worse than the Gatti fight. I hate to see Conor getting merked, but I think Floyd stops him within 6 easily

I think it's going to go a lot like the ricky hatton fight, except a few rounds earlier.

My dream scenario is Floyd absolutely beating up McGregor for 5 rounds. Then McGregor in a fit of fury head kick KOs Floyd.

Conor doesn't post his strategies to instagram, that video is a joke LOL. He is well aware that Floyd is watching.

Floyd will get 100% of his net worth on Connor and take a dive.

With the crazy odds Conor will end up getting by fight time...yeah, I see this (obviously Floyd's people betting for him) as an actual possibility.

The amount of money he would need to get down at casinos and then get it all back to him is just way too large without something like that getting out. I know you are saying it somewhat facetiously but still...

The more likely rigged scenario is a Rocky 1 style result, McGregor overachieves and loses a close decision to Floyd. Setting up the rematch where McGregor is better and Floyd is older, this time Floyd tries and just KO's him easily.

Makes 500mill. Ez game.

Don't see Floyd putting an L on his record to McGregor. That's a little too far fetched for me.

I mean that's his legacy if that happens. His legacy is ****ed, it's really compromised if he loses to someone with no pro record. I can't see it being part of the rigged equation.

+1

This is the only fight mayweather will have been involved in where at any point during the fight mcgregor could literally kill him if he decided to and floyd would have no answers.

He obviously isn't going to do anything MMA related in the ring. He might tease it to sell the fight but the athletic commission would come down hard for that.

Not to mention Floyd's whole crew would probably run in the ring and kill him.

Im pretty excited for this. I feel like the build up will be must watch stuff. Fight will most likely be underwhelming but i will watch it for the tiny chance we get a result that will be talked about for a generation.
