Marching Powder posted:I'd watch it because regardless of outcome there is a near 100% chance that a very wealthy egotist would get embarrassed and although I try and be a humble, decent man I still really want to see that because I am a flawed human being. I wish it was because I'm a life-long combat sports fan but it isn't. It's a situation where both guys will come out much richer and the loser will suffer no career repercussions at all because he's not even a boxer. It's also stupid and pointless and bad for both sports. Strongly dislike on all levels.

they got like, 400 fighters? at a tenner a month that's a cool 4k going walking every month you can have for the low low cost of mildly disgruntling every fighter under contract to you

Yeah there is not much schadenfreude to be had there except the one in a million chance Floyd loses embarrassingly I think people who were expecting a fun fight would be disappointed, people who expected Floyd to clown on him and look great would be disappointed, people who thought Conor would do surprisingly well would be disappointed, and it would be stupid for everyone except the guys making money off it i guess Also i still dont think itll happen and its stupid, the way everyones talking about it like its actually gonna happen is unnerving

they should give them free access and listen to their suggestions on how to improve it with stuff like improved rewinding and maybe even an employee specific feature that lets u draw arrows on stuff like in those dan hardy videos. which should benefit everyone and make everyone happy including the ufc probably. they should also release a ps4 app since i want it

I imagine the UFC (WME-IMG) have to be a bit nervous. I'm sure Conor and Floyd want to do this without their involvement so they can have a larger share of the pie. If the UFC challenge this in court it'll tie up their mega-star and it's possible they could end up with the Ali act being extended to cover MMA. But I honestly believe Floyd when he says he is retired. Unless he gets rolled by the tax man again I don't see him fighting.

LeftistMuslimObama posted:Dumb question: if you are competing in boxing and then kick a dude in the head (which is explicitly against the rules and therefore not possible for your opponent to anticipate), is there a potential for criminal charges, or does the legal structure that lets consenting people kick each others' asses in the ring protect the kicker in this situation? Generally speaking yes. The law still applies to sports like anything else and if something goes beyond the inherent aspects of the competition a person could be liable. That been said commissions, tribunals and the like go to great lengths to keep it in house and outside of the courts.

If Floyd cared about getting to 50 wins there are plenty over overmatched boxers he could have faught by now, and made 100 million doing it, so I'm not sure why he'd choose to cap off his legacy by fighting a guy from a different sport who just recently got beat up by Nick Diaz. Plus UFC management will never sign off on any split that Floyd would be happy with. YOLOsubmarine fucked around with this message at 04:16 on Feb 15, 2017 |
