How can people be excited by Mayweather vs McGregor?

I mean FFS, really? Imagine Roger Federer retires from tennis. He is a bit old but wants one last pay day. He gets approached by someone offering a shit ton of money for him to have a one-off tennis match against a badminton player. No but he is a really, [i]really [/i]good badminton player. He played a little bit of tennis when he was young too and he is great at all the pre-match banter. Convince me I am wrong people.

I'd never really heard of McGregor before all the hype started. From the little I've seen I really hope he gets pasted.

@SW-User His arrogance is at least funny. Floyd's isn't.

@thatscottishguy Floyd is like the Mourinho of boxing. He is a classic villain but he is good at what he does. Some say he is the best defensive boxer of all time.

@thatscottishguy I don't know, I think it's a bit beyond arrogance, he comes across across as being a complete wanker. Tyson Fury's slightly saner younger brother. For all his faults, there's no denying that Mayweather was the best boxer of his generation.

I am one of those some. Hate the man but he is.

@SW-User Fury isn't funny though. McGregor actually has patter and like Zlatan seems to almost play a character.

@thatscottishguy Maybe, I've only seen very little of him
