Noone is so dumb to take that seriously and therefore no ppv sells. However if they make Ronaldo vs Messi boxing match now that would sell big.

If a soccer player would be allowed to use head butts, he would have more chances against Mayweather than Conor in pure boxing.

It would probably do well after a few over the top promos.
Could have the 'legendary, unstopable' Ronaldo/ Messi punching the air after a hat trick and just speed it up a little bit. The general public are too busy keeping head above water to bother with details. That's the job of the fans like us.
But if you want to break all the records just make the Mayweather McGregor fight a two header with the return being MMA.
That would be the living end, but maybe not for Floyd. Not even his fans would back him in that one.

TBH I actually think Ronaldo would actually win this, if he passes the doping test

It would probably sell. Mayweather's ability to make money is phenomenal

Not just that but those freakshow type events featuring very popular people always tend to sell.

It would do ok just because it's against two huge stars. Neither of them have any combat experience... not professionally anyhow.

Good point! We just have to get over the unfortunate fact that boxing quality does not guarantee success. Notoriety counts for at least as much.
Economists have been trying to predict human behaviour for decades in the hope that they can predict future demand. These apparently simple predictions soon end up being fantastically complicated where no one knows what's happening and the cast iron predictions become increasingly tenuous. Then all of a sudden Donald Trump is President.
Yes it is amazing how the past is so obvious, yet the future so uncertain. Especially in boxing.

Staying on the topic of utterly ridiculous fantasy bouts, I wonder what would happen if a Barbie Doll fought a Cindy doll?
Who do you think would win that one?

Your attempt at humour turned out to be more boring than one of your regular posts.

Ronaldo is secretly very close with Badr Hari actually. A secretly gay high level heavyweight kickboxer from Marocco. He usually loses against champions, but wins against anyone else.

Obviously this is a parody thread, but this little gem right here is absolutely true.
I predict it will happen someday between two big(ish) stars of each sport, but obviously won't happen this time. You know Conor is down for it, but Floyd would never do something like that.

If it's a secret, how do you know? Have you snuggled the Golden Boy?

There are so many secrets I know, I'm not going to reveil all their sources, but you can probably find some evidence out there if you google it.
If you continue to google you will find more.

But people are dumb enough to buy Mayweather vs McGregor, who has about as much chances to beat Floyd
in boxing as Lionel Messi's youngest son. And before some of Conor's/MMA/UFC fans say "Oh, but Conor has a puncher chance", can they explain me how exactly a guy with ZERO boxing experience and ZERO boxing skills would land a decent punch on a one of the best defenisive boxers of all time if great fighters like Marquez and De La Hoya couldn't do it?

There are levels to dumbness. Beveling in an MMA star beating a boxer is way less dumb then believing in a football player.

Boxing might be deemed a sport but we live in a world where entertainment is valued very highly, probably just below arms dealing. Boxing/ MMA/ Parliamentary debates/ even brain surgeons may feel the need to entertain. Why grow up? Life in the 21st century should be fun. We just need to stop bad reality (pain and other people) getting in the way.
And as Einstein once said:
'Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe'.
Here's a few more nice quotes from the great man.
'Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one'.
'The only thing that interferes with my learning is my education'.

Unfortunately bad reality is getting in my way now, and I'm late for work.

As far as I know, it is impossible for a man to learn what he thinks he already knows.
Ronaldo would win
Oh and:
