this is just embarrassing now. it's disrespectful to the sport in all honesty.

Lets be honest we're all gonna tune in and watch it anyway. It's an exhibition match meaning it won't count on his professional boxing record.

I'm excited simply for the entertainment aspect and to see how 43 year old Floyd can handle a 25 year old athlete 6 inches taller and 50lbs heavier than him.

Boxing tried to be too serious but at its core it's a sport entertainment business like any other. This is a great move because everybody wins. Both fighters get $$$, boxing get more fans, the audience get exciting entertainment.

would prefer Floyd fight his brother Jake instead

If you told me the YouTuber was a woman then yes

What if I told you the Youtube was a man, but then would become a woman later?

these circus shows are based on demand.

they are set up because people keep paying to see them. these are typically the same idiots who follow kardashian news.

i'd say it's probably a reflection of the joke status of our society more than boxing itself.

Ugh Floyd fights are so... not exciting.

No but i'm fine with it. Don't see what the problem is. Nothing wrong with an exhibition fight. They've done it in the past too. Yeah it was usually a fighter of a different sport but there's no difference really. A ufc fighter has no better chance against a boxer than anyone else.

Definitely not the same people that follow Kardashian news.

In the past I purchased silly exhibition matches because I was kind of obsessed with all things boxing and would buy everything. But I wont be buying this.

If this paul manages to win against a cocky boxing veteran, then color me impressed.

[HylianNightmare]

paul must be stoked

He's going to handle him in whatever way they plan it out. Why TF would you (or anyone) want to watch a pre-determined exhibition fight between a has been and a nobody????
