FOOK FOLYD MAYWEATHA

 

[overcast]

Jesus Christ this thing is gonna get milked. I know we'll all follow it though cause entertainment

 

[DKehoe]

Pity the press conference tour doesn't include a stop in Dublin. The fans were going crazy at the one they did there for McGregor vs Aldo

 

[TuXx]

Press tour will be more entertaining than the fight.

 

[Dr.Acula]

LA, Toronto, NYC, and London in 4 days? That's like 8 time zones. Holy crap, they're gonna be zombies by the end of that.

 

[El Topo]

"World"

 

[Tom_Cody]

Holy shit they want all of the money.

All of these events are free to the public, though tickets will be extremely limited.

 

[Peotical Injection]

I can't wait for all the shit talking this Tuesday. Its going to be amazing.

 

[TheBowen]

Honestly the shit talking will be the best moment.

Get that paper

 

[Yaari]

Let the circus begin

 

[Chumley]

I wonder if Floyd will even try to match Conor on the shit talking or just keep saying 49-0.

 

[lightskintwin]

Pity the press conference tour doesn't include a stop in Dublin. The fans were going crazy at the one they did there for McGregor vs Aldo

Too small of a media market.

 

[Syphon Filter]

I can't wait for all the shit talking this Tuesday. Its going to be amazing.

floyd doesn't troll anymore.

 

[Chuck Norris]

floyd doesn't troll anymore.

Floyd will get trolled. The fun will be seeing if Conor can make a guy like Mayweather crack

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

Fuckery levels are rising.

 

[Syphon Filter]

Floyd will get trolled. The fun will be seeing if Conor can make a guy like Mayweather crack

lol no one ever made floyd crack, won't happen.

 

[B-Dubs]

floyd doesn't troll anymore.

Man, is there going to be anything fun about this fight?

 

[Chumley]

Floyd will get trolled. The fun will be seeing if Conor can make a guy like Mayweather crack

Same. And you know Conor is going to go all out and use everything, I don't see Floyd cracking though unless he goes really personal on the DV record which probably won't happen.

 

[Chuck Norris]

lol no one ever made floyd crack, won't happen.

Oh I'm sure there are plenty of ways to make him crack, depends how far in Conor wants to dig the knife

 

[jett]

I wonder if Floyd will even try to match Conor on the shit talking or just keep saying 49-0.

I'm sure Floyd has finally learned how to not be a bore of a motherfucker after 40 years.

 

[sam777]

"Fuck Floyd Mayweather", these conferences are going be a great spectacle.

 

[Floex]

This is the PPV right here, enjoy this now because the fight cannot live up to the hype.

 

[Ikuu]

Expecting Conor to say some racist shit.

 

[Jamie OD]

Going to be better than the fight itself for sure.

 

[janoDX]

One ticket to the circus please...

 

[Tom_Cody]

I'm guessing this will come up, lol:

[yansolo]

This is going to be entertaining

 

[shintoki]

Connor is going to do more on the mic than in the ring.

 

[Qvoth]

someone should ask them on who will win between triple g and canelo

 

[juliushandle]

I have the day off on Tuesday and Staples Center is an easy metro ride for me. I don't like crowds though.

 

[KillLaCam]

Its gonna be so corny but funny

 

[juliushandle]

Tix sold out for LA

 

[Bad_Boy]

We did it baby. Bring out the red panties!

Catch a beating and make Uncle Dana some more money, ya goof.

 

[Chumley]

Dana joining him at the press conferences is going to make this even more insane. Full blown carny shit that would make Vince proud.

 

[Tom_Cody]

+1

 

[JettDash]

LOL if anyway thinks that McGregor can crack Mayweather by talking shit at these events.

I very much doubt that Mayweather gives a crap about anything McGregor will say. He just cares about counting the absurd amounts of money he will make from what what will probably be the easiest fight of his career.

Mayweather actually probably hopes that McGregor is on point with the shit talking. So more people buy the fight and he makes more money.

 

[Bits N Pieces]

Who has the right to this fight in the UK, has it been announced or confirmed yet?

 

[kmax]

From an ecomomic standpoint, this is a great opportunity for all parties involved. The hype alone is worth a lot of money. It's a non-brainer to put two most profilic fighters in the world in the same ring together if you want to make serious dough. Great PR.

As from a sport standpoint, it's obviously a farce. It's a grand PR spectacle, nothing more, nothing less.

McGregor looks like a 3D render.

 

[Sato Koiji]

I wonder if Floyd will even try to match Conor on the shit talking or just keep saying 49-0.

He cant. Floyd can barely talk. The opportunities to burn Floyd verbally are there.

 

[Dude Abides]

This is so so dumb. Next they should have Mayweather box a chimp and McGregor wrestle a bear.

I would watch that too.

Are they flying on an Air Mayweather jet?

Nice to see that Uncle Dana brought his Mcgregor paper cutout.

 

[Bloodporne]

So I've been purposely trying to avoid this whole silly spectacle...but I can't hold out for the soap level drama and trash-talking any longer.

Can someone break this down for me? Is it gonna be straight-up boxing or somehow an MMA match? I haven't followed this shitshow at all.

EDIT: Could've just googled I guess, more fun to laugh here though.

The previous thread should have you covered.

 

[Obliterator]

Expect Conor to go really in on Floyd's financial problems
