    Agree with your sentiments here but funny business is sh*t for hardcore fans too.

    Really hope the fight doesn't go the full 12. There is so much money in a rematch that I can see some crazy scorecards if it goes the distance.

    I agree but then again look how far we made it without the mainstream lames following our sport? Remember all those people bashing boxing then riding the UFC wave, yet look at our beloved sport today. The entire sports world is tuning in for this ****.

    We don't need to be on the front page of the newspaper to do big things

    I truly hope you are a teenager because you simply don't get it. What a painful, ignorant point of view from someone who clearly doesn't understand markets and economics.

    Go watch the WNBA so you can be a trailblazing fan.

    If there's one thing you can bet on every boxing weekend is that some of the judges scorecards will be way off the mark.

    Kenny Bayless is the ref? Great news if so, he's one of the best in the business.

    That's what I'm thinking.

    The betting odds for a draw have dropped like a stone in the last 24 hrs. Does someone know something?

    Plus, there are a number of past Floyd fights that, to me, had questionable outcomes. He's all about the money, after all.

    More paying customers = more shitty PPVs. If you can't even grasp something that simple, I don't see what business you have calling anyone else "ignorant"... And why are you acting as if you stand to make a dime off of boxing? You don't. :deal

    any BS decision for either man will be very bad for boxing, especially considering how many people worldwide will be watching

    Indeed. Hoping for no cut stoppages either.

    Hahaha

    This fight will be too boring for any funny business to occur

    I hope am wrong ......but everything point towards comfortable Mayweather points victory

    Matthysse v Garcia is the main bout on this card !

    If there is to be any funny business, Floyd won't be on the wrong end , he is the main man in Vegas and no way will he be settling for a draw on his record at his point in his career !

    If its close it will still be Floyd win, and everyone will demand a rematch, so no way will it be a draw......

    Anyway..........my prediction is Floyd win, probably 9-3

    Hope I'm wrong though, I like to back the underdog in big fights most of the time.....backing flawless fighters is easy and boring.........makes me laugh how some peeps on here are so smug when the likes of Floyd or ward win.......yes they are the best but dont mean everyone should want them to win......if everyone boxed like them there would be no sport to watch
