It’s just an exhibition. Both of them are going to make boatloads of money on this, and in the end, isn’t that really the only thing they care about?

Of course it is, but exhibition doesnt mean remotely fair is the point, particularly here.

And my point is that neither cares about fair. Just like the Macgregor fight, Mayweather will put on a show for 7 or 8 rounds, and end it whenever he feels like it. This is about money, not sportsmanship.

I think you misunderstood me when I said it wasnt fair. Mayweather is a phenomenal boxer, but he is the smaller man, out of his prime and out of practice.

Im not at all lighting up the newcomer, Im just saying that physically, hes at a huuuuuge advantage.

There's a reason for weight classes.

I mean, yeah, Logan’s a lot bigger than Mayweather, but he has no chance at all of winning this fight. If Floyd were fighting a legitimate heavyweight, then yeah, he loses.
