My only interest is to see the cobbled together rules for this circus.

Like when Ali fought the Japanese wrestler. Boxing shouldn't allow itself to be dragged down to these levels.

Money talks these days unfortunately.

Watch the sideshow and then prepare for the fight of the year in September when Canelo rips GGG a new one.

Whatever next? Steve Davis v Phil Taylor.

Why not? If they can sell tickets they will put it on.

It's going to be a straight up 'boxing match' ?! The Irish lad will get destroyed or it will be choreographed like wresting. Fuck this shit.

One or the other yeah, either way it'll be shite.

I'll definitely still stay up and watch it though!

Just seen a video of CM sparring.

Wow.

If this is a proper fight then Floyd's going to wipe the floor with him, and quickly.

A number of boxing stars have put themselves forward to feature on the undercard. They include arguably the biggest star currently out there – Great Britain’s Anthony Joshua, who defeated Wladimir Klitschko in front of 90,000 fans at Wembley Stadium in April.

“Get me on the undercard!,” Joshua told Mayweather on iFL TV when the pair met at a fan event. “Yeah, why not? It's big,” Joshua added when asked if he would fight on the undercard. “That's legendary shit. That fight will go down in history. It will be part of history.”

Mayweather’s protégé, Gervonta Davis, is another to put himself forward and is eager to fight Tevin Farmer on the undercard. Meanwhile, UFC stars Cub Swanson and Jimi Manuwa have both expressed an interest in featuring, with the former calling out British boxing star David Haye.

“Dana White, Eddie Hearn, let's make it happen,” Manuwa said after knocking out Corey Anderson at UFC London. “Why not have a fight with David Haye? We're two of the hardest hitters in London. I think that the fight makes sense. Conor wants to fight Mayweather, why not have me against David Haye on the same card?”

Odds

Floyd Mayweather to win: 1/16
​Conor McGregor to win: 7/1
Draw: 33/1

7/1 is an absolutely terrible price for CM.
