He's the money guy. Everyone always wants the money fight. Though I question how much he can generate boxing on his own.

Wow / you'd be a nightmare on a night out

"Happy thanksgiving, and stay fit"

A Filipino wishing an Irishman happy thanksgiving?

That sounds like fighting talk to me :box:

It will be another circus, with Mcgregor winning a round or two before getting beaten handily and UFC fans claiming it proves their sport is better than boxing.

Not sure. Pac-Man seems like he has a nasty streak which might come out and he decides to blast the paddy out.
It’s why McGregor won’t entertain sharing a ring with someone like Canelo who doesn’t have a ‘go easy’ switch!

True enough, it wouldn't surprise anyone if Pac destroyed him in a round.

Probably explains why Mcgregor seems more interested in the Paulie fight.

No freaking way would McGregor earn 75%.
Pacquiao is still a big name

He'll make more in the cage. He's using boxing as leverage.

I'm not sure I want to live in a world where Mcgregor earns 75% of a purse vs Pacman.

It's not going to happen... McGregor isn't fighting Pacquiao because he's already been in with a top guy and nearly got his lights put out... He needs to fight the guy who Pacquiao beat the living shitt out of -- and stopped faster then Floyd could stop McGregor... Oscar De La Toya.

I don't blame Pacquiao for trying to exploit Conor McGregor's fame... It's a damned good money idea -- but only for Pacquiao.
