    Mayweather-Tyson exhibition is on for the spring.

    The sport has hit rock bottom.

    It's over. Been a great run. Crawford vs Canelo is next week but both are too old to carry any type of torch going forward. Boxing is dead.

    I was under the impression that RJJ was gonna fight FMJ in an exhibition after their recent social media scuffle.

    I don't see this as a worse sideshow then when peak Foreman fought five dudes in Toronto.

    That being said this absolutely did not need to happen whatsoever

    Worst part is all the casuals will be hyping this up as a superfight of superfights.

    Yup fuck this sport....it's annoying.


    I mean Pac is still out there and he called lil guy out...so if Floyd like Rocky Balboa still has something in the basement, fight PAC in a real fight.

    Typical Mayweather response:


    Floyd Mayweather Jr. responds to boxings fans who says he only took the Mike Tyson fight because he needs the money. Posting on his Instagram sat on his private jet with a pile of cash.

    Floyd: “I’m pretty sure I’d be upset too if I was somebody else, I’d be mad at Mayweather too. How the f*** for 30 years you can keep getting money like this. I’d be hating on Mayweather too. Continue to hate, you know people only talk about winners and I’m a winner so continue to talk.”

    Mayweather jr aint lying. If he can make actual money off another farce, the consumers are to blame.

    Fool me once

    I refuse to watch any exhibition circus event. Boxing has become WWE, but at least with WWE you know it’s entertainment.

    Tyson should have to beat Gotti III or Salt Papi to earn a shot at Mayweather jr

    This only benefits Tyson and Floyd. These exhibitions do my head in.

    Man, when I was at school, there were a couple of times where I'd have to explain to someone that Mayweather would never fights Tyson. Looks like I was wrong lol

    If it hasn't, it's hard to see how it can get worse. The problem is normalisation. It's "normal" to have "exhibitions". It's "normal" to duck people. It's "normal" to get hometown cooking.

    One of the first fights I went to was mosleys last lightweight fight vs John brown. Hameds brother was in the row in front of me. Not the manager guy, his younger brother i guess ?

    Anyhow this dumbfuck dismissed mosley, who had the build of a welter at that point in the ring, like it was a sure thing Hamed would beat him if he went to 135 and it happened.

    So it wasn't exactly surprising any of his fans felt that way about him, his camp was making these preposterous claims of him going up in weight, despite being a fucking midget
