If you were to tell me that the Mayweather vs. McGregor fight was going to happen a year ago I'd tell you that you are crazy. I would tell you it was just a publicity stunt for both fighters as the fight would just not make sense.
One of the world's greatest boxers to ever put the gloves on against an opponent that has no experience in boxing but in MMA. it might sound possible to some but these are two completely different sports. It is like putting a world champion ping pong player against one of the top tennis players, yes they are similar sports but just because you excel in one doesn't mean the same for the other.
I'm not here to tell you McGregor is making a bad choice fighting because either way he is going to benefit from this fight. What started as nothing got pushed and pushed by the media to create this hype about nothing. Two champions in their own respective sport squaring off in a single boxing match? Sounds interesting, but the hype it is receiving is not what it should be.
I am here to tell you that this is not going to be a boxing match but more of a WWE match. If you ever saw the Mayweather vs. Pacquiao you would understand. This was two of the best fighters in boxing at the time and Mayweather just how much of a business man he is.
Just how certain am I that this is all just a huge scam? Both boxers will benefit from this all with one outcome. The outcome that WILL happen... Mayweather will win, and Mcgregor will not even care. No matter win or lose McGregor will make more money in this fight than any other he has ever fought in. And Mayweather? He knows it is an easy fight. He would not have come out of retirement to risk his undefeated record if he didn't think so. He saw an opportunity to make a couple hundred million dollars for an easy fight and he took it. Because who wouldn't!?!?
