So 60 bucks to watch a match that nobody cares about lol.


Funny that we already have 28 pages of “nobody cares”  Grin
Funny so see that some people really name an discuss advantages in boxing that Paul Logan has. Reach, tall, young?
Im sure they and promoters make a lot of money on that fight, sure there will be fans who could afford spend 89,99$ on this, but sadly their contribution to boxing is a bit greater than zero.

sometimes wonder whether it is actually still justified to go full boxing at this late age. that cannot be healthy for any human being, certainly not at this age and these men have already been hit hard every week

Well, it might not be healthy but I think they have their own consultations about these fights, for example, the match of Mike Tyson where as far as I know have these rules about that which is proved in the link above. I don't think each party would be allowing this fight if this will not be having these kinds of rules so I think this will be fine.

LOL.. so they are pricing it at $89.99 per PPV buy? It looks quite overpriced for me. The match between Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather in 2015 was available for almost the same rates. I don't know whether they will get 3 million buys this time, as they are expecting. But I have already made the decision, and I am neither going to watch it, or make a bet on any of the boxers.

Apparently early birds could opt-in for 24.99$, since 29/12 the price is already 59.99$. Some people even think this match can break the PPV record.
It costs 89.99$ to watch the PPV and get a T shirt of the match.

KSI vs. Logan Paul match generated around 1.3 million PPV buys, which was very impressive for a boxing match between two amateurs. Since Mayweather is involved, we can expect that number to increase by manifold for this match. But while the KSI vs. Logan Paul had a price tag of £9.95 per PPV buy, I expect this match to be more expensive. So at least some of the fans are going to find it unaffordable. 

Just hope that other fights in the card would be worth watching or at least be more excited than Mayweather vs Paul fight.

Btw, speaking about PPV prices, many will be disappointed as it will cost a lot for such a predicted fight. 80 bucks for such crap on the day of the fight - I'll pass...

As one of this even promotors is Mayweather Promotion, we might see someone from Floyds fighters in the card.

Yes, I agree with you, they have a die hard fans and Logan Paul has a big number of followers in his youtube channel.
22.7 million as of the moment, I don't know if it has increase because of this fight, but it's a big number even if 10% of that will buy the PPV.

It is not that is unaffordable if somehow they decide to make it more expensive it is a matter of simply not being worth your money, while that price is cheap I can think of at least 5 ways to spend that kind of money and get way more entertainment than the hour that I could get from watching an amateur fighter and a Floyd Mayweather that is not serious at all about this fight, so while a boxing fan could watch it just because I have no intention to do so if the price is too high.

Only $10M for Floyd in this fight?

That's pennies for him, it would be interesting to learn where you got the information about his fee. For someone who earns $280M against Mcgregor, he isn't that desperate to take offers that low. The PPV alone will get him more than $10M, you;d have to wonder how low will Logan get if its just $10M for Floyd.

Might be a penny for him, that is true.

But let's consider his match and his opponent, it is easy money. Just imagine, having one round match and you would be paid a certain $10M, which is $5M as far as I know, and a share with the PPV payments. A $5M where he could just end in seconds, in a minute, or in just one round. That is just like Logan giving him a gift of $5M.

Surely deed! there's nothing to stake and everything will be an added publicity for his name, the good thing to know is there are still people who will support this and pay for  PPV.

Knowing that there'ss nothing interesting to watch out though his name still carry everything and chances that fans will continue to pay for it.

One single no bearing fight and he will add more for his bank savings.

sometimes wonder whether it is actually still justified to go full boxing at this late age. that cannot be healthy for any human being, certainly not at this age and these men have already been hit hard every week

I thought this man already retired from boxing, yet I hear news that he's going to fight with Logan Paul. You're certain that in his old age wouldn't be good for him specially an aging conditions. Hopefully he'll be able to manage well, since his opponent is a bit younger compared to him. If given chance on this fight he'd still used same skills from his previous fights.

Yeah, Floyd "Pretty Boy" Mayweather has long been retired from boxing but Floyd "Money" Mayweather hangs around doing circus act for a hefty fee lol. Money Mayweather doesn't have to showcase his skills here, all he need to do is to be present during fight night to collect the fee.

That's part of why this is an exhibition match I think its fully considered medically as a risk but does Floyd take hard hits like that regularly.   If he is avoiding the majority of hits to the head then he can keep going as long as the money is there to collect.    If he really gets the crap kicked out of him and is on the ropes several times or KO its time to reconsider but either way he gets enough money here to never be forced to do anything that would impede his health and I doubt he would.  I think he is just fine and it would be a giant upset for him to take any real beating on this.

There's certainly a lot more, the only advantage of Logan Paul here is his age.

No. You have to consider that there's no weight classification here. Logan Paul is fighting against a former pound for pound king.

The age is nothing on that matter, especially against Mayweather.

Exhibition matches are even more of a scripted match and the trashtalks between both parties are just front up and publicity.

If that's what your impression was, then I was right about him cause there's no way he will fight for the fans and don't give them what they wanted other than him giving us a hype base fight which will only fetch him money.
If he dont fight Pacman now he will only fight him in an exhibition fight just like Tyson and Ray.
Just look at the fighting career of Floyd Mayweather, he was avoiding Manny Pacquiao for a long time and then came to an agreement to fight Manny when he thought he will be retiring after the fight as he knew that it could be a big money fight and the fans finally had the opportunity to watch that fight after almost a decade of wanting to see them fight and Mayweather recently said he will not fight Manny again in a professional bout.

Ever since Mayweather announced his retirement all his fight was not for the sake of his fans and he once publicly said if the money is not good he wont be interested in fighting. Besides, if this fight was for the fans sake i believe Pacman will be his opponent not Logan Paul.
There is no way Floyd Mayweather is coming out of retirement to fight Manny Pacquiao as he always test the patience of the boxing world with his antics. The only possibility is when Manny retires we might hear a call out from Floyd just to tease the fans  Cheesy.

If I remember correctly the odds for Mayweather in Betnomi is 1.01 I really can't tell if this match is worth placing bet for. Though we can assure that Mayweather would definitely the winner of this match the only event is just 1x2.
It's for fun so if you want to make money from this match, the odds won't be favoring you.

But just as those chance takers say, there are what ifs for Logan Paul. What if he get to knock and have a lucky punch for Floyd, then he'll win. As said, it's all what if and there is no security with those.

Chances are still with Floyd.

I agree with the statement from Jake Paul, the younger brother of Logan Paul, it seems that his brother was careless in choosing his boxing opponent.
Even boxing legend Mike Tyson warned of the horror of Floyd Mayweather Jr. Even Conor McGregor and Tenshin Nasukawa were defeated by Mayweather.
This is a battle whose outcome is already known, there was no way Logan Paul could beat Mayweather. I don't know if Logan Paul is looking for popularity
or if he is overconfident.
It just proves that Jake Paul and Mike Tyson is promoting the fight, every kid who watches boxing knows that Floyd Mayweather does not have the power to knockout anyone  Cheesy. I admire the defensive boxing skills of Mayweather and he is the best in the history of boxing to display that level of skills but for Tyson to warn about the horrors is funny  Cheesy.

There's certainly a lot more, the only advantage of Logan Paul here is his age.

That advantage came little use for him, when he got whacked by KSI. Actually I am surprised that most of the posters consider this match to be serious. Common.. this is an exhibition match between one of the legends in the history of boxing and a complete amateur. If the fight is real, it will be all over in 30 seconds and it is not going to last even a microsecond longer than that. But that is not going to happen, as everything will be acted on the stage as per the script.

You nailed  it, that's likely the scenario, Mayweather can KO Logal Paul in a seconds if he will make it serious, but for the sake of entertainment, he can prolong this fight and will not seriously hurt Logan Paul. It's just hilarious that some even think Logan Paul has a good chance of winning.  Grin

Don't say that, the more the fight will become non interesting. Logal Paul instead of fighting and trying to win, if he will listen to the advise, he might just end up surviving the fight by running away, avoiding shots from Mayweather. I hope he is fit enough to receive a possible punishment from money.

Both are after the money so there's no bearing with this fight, even he'll recieve those punch incase Floyd throw some it's still
worth to bank those amount.

With such logic, this fight will add popularity with Logan not aiming for the win but for the money that he will be getting after this fight.



The only risk for Logan here is if he will be seriously injured in the fight, I think both parties have talk about this possibility too and I believe they will insure that no one will be seriously injured in the fight as this is just an "exhibition fight".

The only possible advantage is just a the age but  Floyd still active in term of conditioning
he's body and with good camp around him it's easier to keep he's shape,.

There's certainly a lot more, the only advantage of Logan Paul here is his age.
