I've clearly made the wrong choices in life

Only 180 million? I don't know how he survives. Maybe we can do a collection so that he can pay his rent

axisus

Not sure how anyone else makes any money when they are shovelling so much into his coffers. It is a pretty mad amount of dosh. We all want Manny to win, but I'm pretty sure floyd will have it covered.

Is Roger Waters involved?

Unfortunately he'll get a smaller share .. his agent and his henchman take a big cut ..

He will end up with more once all the cash come is from the casinos.

Can't stand his manner but he is an amazing talent , id love Manny to beat him but i just cant see it happening , maybe six years ago (when it should have happened) but not now.

Does anyone else have absolutely no idea of what this thread is about?

It's professional masterchef.

But I thought Floyd died a while ago?

Yeah after dark side of the moon.

I think it was only the keyboard player.

Glasgow, any Friday night.

Not many fight fans here

At least thought Richard would be a massive combat sports fan ??

I'm looking forwards to it. I hope Manny wins but fully expect another Mayweather win. 

Boxing needs a real shake up and has done for years. I used to be a huge fan, following all the younger fighters, amateurs and all weight divisions. Nowadays there's so many poor match ups with everybody scared to lose a belt combined with some outrageous points decisions and not enough good fighters. It's just a bit meh. I think it's slowly tipping in the right direction but there's too much money invol

This is the biggest fight in years and it's between two 35+ guys yes they're in great shape and at the top of the tree but it should have happened 6 years ago and put a couple re-match clauses in there, they could /should have done a best of 3 over 18-24 months.

I'm looking forward to it, but not sure how to play it. Go to bed for a few hours and set the alarm for 2ish? Or drink through, trying to stay awake for the fight and potentially missing it... Inconsiderate timing much!

I'll be working till around 3:30 so will watch it in a pub on my mooch home.

I've not followed boxing in years, I'd want to watch this fight but it isn't really feasible as I'm away at the weekend.  Yeah this should've happened a long time ago but Mayweather was too busy messing around in the WWE punching Big Show then doing his trademark dodging technique.

Skip to 2:00

Nope, I've duly  googled "Floyd Tae", but I can't find anything on the bloke at all.

Sassafras

It's taken him long enough to accept taking on Pacman.

Hope he gets his comeuppance, the arrogant gobshite.
