Not sure what's worse this farce or some MMA fighter fighting a retired Floyd.

Some MMA fighter? It's one of the very best MMA fighters (who specialises in stand up game using his fists) against one of the very best boxers. You can understand the appeal and if you can't there are hundreds of thousands of people who will part with their hard earned to watch it.

This Benn vs Collins rematch is just sad though. Who wants to watch it? Not me, I'd rather get on YouTube and rewatch all the good fights between Benn, Collins and Eubank.

Conor is nowhere near one of the very best MMA fighters ever

It's still a fight which contains a MMA fighter who has never boxed professionally and a 40 year old retired fighter. Only thing entertaining about it will be the press conference.

Probably not, that's a different argument. Either way I didn't say ever.

So businesses as usual for a Mayweather fight then.

Don't see the harm, if Benn was facing like a 30 year old then defo a no-no, but meh just two old guys going at it one last time, Collins already said he's doing it for the money so fair enough

The only reason the Floyd vs Conor fight was sanctioned was the financial revenue it will generate.

I am now confident that it will break the mayweather vs pacquiao numbers.

I'm so certain it won't I'll bet my username with you.
Whoever wins gets to choose the other person's username.

Let's see how confident you are.
