Anyone know what time this is likely to start?
My head says Mayweather but stranger things have happened.

Sunday morning (5am I believe)Anyone know what time this is likely to start?

I am so fucking sick of hearing about this 'fight'.
I'm sat next to a guy at work who is obsessed with boxing. In fairness he's open about it being a farce, but he won't shut up about it.
For the record, he thinks it's likely to start much later than advertised as Mayweather's team like to keep people waiting until the PPV purchases begin to dry up. His guess is 8 AM. I suspect it will be over 5 minutes later. If that.
But you're going to watch it, no?
No. I think boxing is retarded.
Fair enough
It feels like a complete scam to me. I mean, Mayweather/Pacquiao turned out to be a scam - as Floyd danced his way around the ring, avoiding contact (smart, too...) and not engaging in 'the fight of the century' after putting it off for so many years - but at least they sold it well, giving the impression it was a genuine contest.I am so fucking sick of hearing about this 'fight'.

He won't. If he's disqualified no pay day. He won't risk anythingMy only hope is that McGregor doesn't try to 'box' his way through and comes flying at him with a style that he's never faced before.
Which also nicely sets up a money spinning rematch.If I was going to call a result I'd say McGregor lasts 12 rounds (if h's got the conditioning) as Floyd strolls it on points. That way they both save face - Mayweather will leave you with the impression he was toying with him and could have stepped it up if he'd really wanted to, whilst McGregor can say he toughed it out in a boxing match and wasn't embarrassed - and can go count their money.
