    these press conferences have been gold so far. McGregor is the best trash talker since Ali

    threw $200 on McGregor at +500, so after this PPV i'll probably be out $300. I'm not the biggest McGregor fan because I like other 155lb UFC fighters over him, but I'm so glad I have irish blood in me so I don't have to root for the American, wife-beating floyd

    The Chads are eating this up. Reminds me of WWE. Might be the fakest shit I've ever seen, but it's entertaining. Backstage they're all laughing and counting their money.

    It actually kind of seems like they like each other.

    Still very entertaining - I'm going to watch.

    It's on a bigger stage, but they do these pressers for every UFC and Boxing fight. Obviously not a 4day tour, but they're doing what they can to sell the fight. McGregor's really not handling this any different than he handled the mendez, alvarez, aldo and both diaz fights.

    Came to mention about these pressers. They are so incredibly fake and obnoxious. Are people really dumb enough to think any of this is real? Theyre really pushing the hype machine into full gear for people on the fence about buying this.


    This fight is gonna suck. Floyd will take it easy so it at least extends a few rounds. Like mentioned above, whole thing feels like WWE, fight will too.

    yeah what a joke


    Its only racist if a white guy says it to a black guy, but Floyd shouting it at him isnt.

    Hint: none of it is, and its all fake... but gotta push that racial card to sell the fight.

    Of course they like each other. Floyd is paying Connor millions and millions of dollars so he can retire 50-0.

    Yeah I get that and I know they're all hyped up, but people are falling for this. That's the sad part.

    Still waiting for on-sale date and ticket prices for the venue.

    Seems like they're cutting it awful close.

    I was expecting about $100 for the PPV so no surprise. Just wondering if it's going to crash the communications grid like the Paquiao fight did. That was some bullshit.

    I've heard, minimum, $2,000 for a seat, even a nosebleed. Fuck that. If I knew it was going to be a real, legit fight, not a dive, not a potential DQ/NC if/when Connor instinctively does some illegal MMA shit, I'd shell out that much, then honestly probably end up scalping my ticket in Vegas for several times that amount and then drive out to Henderson or blackout territory and watch the fight on PPV. PPV blackouts are the dumbest shit I've ever heard. Like most people in the Vegas area can afford to buy a $2,000 plus ticket, which, even after legit on sale, will probably be scalped for several times that amount by the clearing houses.
