    • I have to agree. The key word “exhibition” speaks volumes on the level of inferior intensity in a boxing match. Streetbeefs on Youtube would be more entertaining to watch than this money-making “let’s be safe” and “smack each other ” event. I am sure they will fabricate PPV sales to show it was was worthy to buy.

      • Then again, as you might recall, Mayweather KTFO’d an MMA guy in a so-called exhibition in Japan. I’m sure he could do the same to this YouTuber.

  • You buy this, you help perpetuate and accelerate this cycle of bullsh1t. Don’t. Just another grubby hoax

    • You have to realize who will mostly buy it. Who will tune in to watch it? That’s right, the youtube family or the YT fans or whatever you wanna call them. Most of them already know who Mayweather is. And for their favourite youtuber to fight Mayweather, and with promotion etc. The fight will maybe break another record.

  • Logan Paul just signed up for a Expensive Ass Whooping… Money in the bank!!! lol

    • An ass whopping? In 50 pro fights Floyd hasn’t whooped anyone’s ass lol. Did just enough to win every time.

          • Yes it was. Hatton, Augustus, Manfredy to name a few more: haters are gonna hate, that’s what they do.

      • He whoop s all their asses. They all can’t hit them and get drilled with right-handed that changes their whole game. Most just back off to avoid the brutality. Coto was one of the few that didn’t and was crying in the dressing room beat up. Facts.

        • He didnt whoop Castillo ass. 166 landed power shots to 60. Thats an ass whooping, but somehow he won.

      • You know thats a damn lie. He kicked Canelo’s, he gave Chico (RIP) an “ass whipping” and beat the shit out of Gatti. You dumb casual.

    • Let’s not use the over used and old “Boxing is dead” quote. That statement has been repeated countless times over the last 20 years yet somehow this “dead sport” seems to keep persevering.

    • It’s a new area that’s all, actually more alive than ever. Is it not better that those Youtuber choose boxing instead of MM and A?

  • Once I finally get bored of staring directly in to sun, I’ll make a decision as to whether to spend $69.99 on this extravaganza or using it to place a Vegas wager on the New York Jets to win this seasons Superbowl.

  • I thought that was Jake Paul lol Yes this is becoming such a joke. Good for this kid who’ll make more money but come on Floyd. Manny’s out there still fighting you know.

  • omyyy hope this is NOT true.
    if so, Tyson or Beetlejuice from Howard Stern should be next

  • Ok, this bullshit has got to stop here! I admit, I was all in for Tyson-Jones, fully understanding it was a circus side show, but this bullshit I will not support! I will not sit there and watch these two assholes make millions for this crap while people worldwide are struggling to survive during the Scamdemic!

    • Scamdemic? Reread your other words. You sound like a HYPOCRITICAL supporter of fascist dictatorships.

  • if mayweather would fight crawford or spence i’d buy it, but can’t blame him i guess, all fighters know their limitation so i guess paul is his

  • I think boxing fans have to collectively draw the line here and stop buying and feeding into this shit.

  • Hard to blame those involved as these kind of ‘special attraction’ events sell well and produce good revenue. That said didn’t Floyd absolutely destroy that Japanese fighter in another ‘exhibition’ event. I would imagine he will do the same thing here as well

    • I don’t blame Mayweather or Paul.$hit, I’d prolly do the same thing if somebody was willing to pay me, but the whole idea is just stupid and lame, and Barnum and Baily-ish! If they were to actually fight, Mayweather would KO Paul the second he chose to do so, but I personally have no interest at all in witnessing that.

  • The ref is Russell Mora. Judges are CJ Ross, Eugenia Williams and Adalaide Byrd with Julie Lederman as the replay official. WBC Supervisor is Vinny Paz.

  • Nooooooo!! Please stay in the shade and let the young lions hunt and play in efforts to reach the HOF!!!

  • Mayweather the overrated coward doing what he does best take on a no hoper, it’s like taking a drunk that’s never done anything outside of drinking and smoking and just plucking him out of a bar and matching him against a professional at anything and see who’s stupid enough to pay to watch and see what happens. Pure crap bid rather watch 70’ somethings Balboa and Creed fight against…

    One day the stupid masses will refuse to line Mayweathers pockets when this stupid act wears thin and the coward will be broke as a joke….

  • These exhibitions are gimmicky money-making opportunities for the participants, and serve a purpose I suppose. Plenty of demand for gimmicky nonsense with social media involved these days, and lots of money to be made.

    In the meantime, in the great sport of Boxing, some real exciting matchups are brewing in various weight classes:
    Heavyweight – Fury, Wilder, Joshua, Povetkin
    Middleweight – Canelo, GGG, Charlo
    Welterweight and Super Welter – Crawford, Spence, Pacquaio, Thurman, Charlo, Mikey Garcia, Porter
    Lightweight – Lopez, Davis, Lomachenko, Haney

    Matchups I’m looking forward to: Lopez-Davis, Davis-Lomachenko, Lopez-Lomachenko II, Crawford- Spence, Crawford-Porter, Spence-Charlo, Crawford-Charlo, Porter-Charlo, Pacquaio-Spence, Canelo-Charlo to name a few.

  • Mayweather is huge name, household name. Why are you all is so angry that he is doing this? Of Course he only care about the money. But with this event, he is actually promoting the sport big time. All those young kids will know about boxing and a future world champ will be sitting and watching and then decides he wanna get in to this sport. That’s how i started boxing. Watching the great Mr. Ali. Thinking i wanna do that. It was Ali and Nassem who introduced me to to sport. Yeah mayweather will play with his ass, but so what? It will bring attention to the sport. Kids will know, wow this is a hard sport. Not as easy as it looks. You need to be in great shape to do boxing. And it will for sure bring many new fans who will watch the real fights after this event. And even bring many new members to boxing gym. Which makes me happy.

    • Remember Ali fighting Antonio Inoki in an exhibition in Japan that Inoki elbowed the champ for real on the ground Angelo Dundee was going nuts it was under the Japanese professional wrestling banner that was entertaining even though was staged slightly but looked like it got outta hand ! This was a long time ago! Floyd doing similar moves here !

      • June 1976 it was. Inoki lay down in the middle of the ring and kicked the crap out of Ali’s shins.

    • Hmm, intersting take. Unfortunatley I have to agree, Lol. I wont watch but plenty will. Its a entertainment. I hope FMJ slaps that kid silly.

  • Floyd is my boy and elevated boxing and now he’s hurting the sport. I don’t blame him for trying to make money but if you dumb asses buy this fight I’ll kick you all in the nuts. This shit has to stop.

  • I’m only pissed off because I wanted to fight Mayweather. If only I were a white guy or an Asian midget kick-boxer.

  • Logan Paul lost twice to KSI so his record is actually 0-2, either way i see him KTFO Mayweather back into retirement. Logan Paul is “The Great White Hope” +

    • I would seriously question myself and my whole identity if I paid to watch this, or if I even watched it at all. I would feel like the biggest lame ass in the world if I bought this fight and invited people over to watch. I think nobody would ever respect me again, because I would have a hard time respecting anyone who paid for this fight…unless you’re a teenage girl. I might have to give you a pass then.

  • Sadly this freakshow will make lots of money (not mine) Can’t blame Floyd, Boxing is a business and TMT is a busness enterprise. Its WWF at best. Just irks me that JP will makes lots of money for being a Youtube influencer. PT Barnum ” There’s a sucker born every minute”…Obviously, very true.
