The industry is what it is.
Nowadays,professional sports are a business.Everything is about money.
Such fights are more like entertainment,rather than actual sports.There's nothing wrong with that.
If you want to watch sports,there's no problem watching amateur boxing or something else.
Professional boxing and professional MMA fighting are all about making more money,getting the attention of the crowd,getting bigger and higher paying sponsors and all that BS.
The Paul brothers might be clowns(or should I say "entertainers"),but they are making money.At the end of the day,this is what matters the most for them and for the fighting sports industry.

Exhibition fights are shit and i dont really expect something from it but just money grabber kind of fights which doesnt really give out any thrills but somewhat it could give out some interest on particular
moment but not really that much.Boxing industry turns out to be boring and speaking with business which is already obvious on implying it.
exhibition fights in sports (yes, including boxing) can be fun and entertaining as long as the ones who are participating in them are actually good at it or have a vast experience in that sport. but this exhibition match that the jake brothers are doing though is shit.
They do really love on messing out those people on just for the sake of money which isnt surprising.No matter how they do make themselves look like a fool or even having those kind of provocation as

long they could able to successfully to set fights and made out easy millions with that.As i said earlier this industry is gradually becoming even more shittier as the years passing.
Wondering on whose popular athletes or fighters these Paul brothers would provoke in just to have some fight.

Jake was the finnest boxer for now.When the Jake trying to make a new match and Conor open the door and make a change in the match.This made their fight for the first time accidentally.Conor had a clear view of fighting for the belt in the UFC.He had a target to fight with the Usman of 170lb and had a clear shot to the game of UFC.But this match gone a huge change in Jake carrier.

In terms of training I dont understand how a professional could have less chance then a celebrity fighter trying to argue he is capable of meeting that demanding training schedule.  Sure maybe he can do it but that remains something to prove and he hasn't established any greater advantage over McGregor that I can tell.   The whole thing is unpredictable as its purely done for views who knows what the real dynamics driving either fighter will be in the end.   I'll bet on the established fighter if its at all good value to do so.

They can just do nothing at all, just wait for the schedule and show up inside the ring, there's no pressure since no belts to fight for and it's just exhibition we really don't know what will be the outcome of this fight, we just sharing our speculation and providing our own views regarding to these two entertainers.

In terms of betting, it's tough since we don't know what will be behind this fight. I'm not saying that it can be rigged, but we don't know
if there's anything that's been discussed behind doors.
If ever Conor would be beaten up by Jake Paul on this match then we could really say that is rigged or been cooked already because lots had been expecting that this would be an easy win for Conor.

It's looking more and more like Conor McGregor might get a shot at Kamaru Usman as he tries to become the first champion in 3 different weight classes.  I understand his thinking...  He's been doing nothing but lifting weights and adding mass to his upper body since his last injury and he looks huge.  I don't think he stands a chance against Usman at 170 pounds though.  Likely that will be the loss that ends McGregor's ability to score super fights.  He's going to need another spectacle fight after that to keep his name in the news.  I suspect that's when a potential matchup with Jake Paul will be in the cards.  With each passing day it looks like McGregor is going to end his UFC career with a loss to Usman.  He'll have a punchers chance, but that's about it.

Wow buddy, I hope you can someday explain why Khabib (and that other cheater I mentioned) always looks bigger than his opponents other than my hate (lol what). I thought you were aware of the cycles of shrinkage - weight gain before the fight, which absolutely all athletes do, but only a few literally take a mortal risk in order to "play" with big numbers and sit in a weight category that they have long outgrown.

Yes, I know about that and it's not that we were born yesterday to be shocked about it. I mean we can literally see the difference of their body sizes but it's becoming normal nowadays although some fighters are cheating in a different way.

Correct me if I'm wrong here because I noticed that most boxers or fighters after their weigh-in schedule are continuously eating afterwards that specific event to at least regain their weight after they shrunk their weights just to be in the specified weight needed.

Such manipulations with weight take place over a short distance (usually a day between weighing and fighting), so it’s not food that matters here, but only water. That is why simple diuretics are equated with the most cruel doping - everyone knows what they are used for. Modern medicines and techniques allow you to lose 15 kilograms in two weeks and after it gain 10 in one day (!!!). But in "normal life-safe" mode it works for athletes who weigh 100+ kilos, smaller weight classes mess around with smaller numbers. Khabib is just one of those who takes extreme risks and gets an extremely big advantage, since in fact he does not perform in his weight category. That is why we have seen so much news about how Khabib before important fights (for example with Ferguson) ended up in the hospital and the fights fell apart. It is said that because of such tricks with weight, he "squandered" his kidneys and I would not be sure that he would live for many more years.

This is true however when a boxer goes through heavy training for the purpose of weight loss like burning over 10-15 lbs within just a short period of time to catch the weight needed for the fight, they are not suggested to make a heavy meal afterward because it will shock their body system and that's risky because just less than 24 hours, they will officially fight now. It's just good for those who just maintained their weight as their routine training is just about maintaining and not burning some fats.

That's how risky for a boxer that is willing to go down weight especially if it needs to catch more weight loss like what will happen if Jake Paul will still push the idea of facing Conor McGregor. It's suicide for him.

One reason is enough: he is a cheater. His main advantage is that he took extreme risks when manipulating weight. In addition, he is a one-sided fighter - try to remember his epic victories in the stand? Or just any epic wins? All his fights are exhausting the opponent on the ground due to the weight advantage (well, yes Khabib is a good wrestler).
Honestly, I don't know why you have so much hatred towards Khabib. It really feels like he used to bully you back in your younger years or something like that.

Based on the poll it looks like most of us didn't care about it since both fighters are unprofessional boxers but if it happens that this match is going to happen I think Jake Paul has the higher chance of winning because of his experience with boxing.

Well its just only mean that bettors and boxing fans will not easily deceived by the name of the boxer or hype of the battle because we are a smart bettor and a solid boxing fan which would not just wanted to place a bet on our favorite boxers but we do also wanted to watch a good match inside the ring that you know both fighter are a good fighter. Well, in case of Jake Paul vs. Conor McGregor I am not really sure which one is the good fighter but if I were going to bet in this game I'll be on Jake Paul's side too.
If you know one of them or if you know both of them, you will get attracted to this event. You will bet if you are a bettor or you will watch the match if your simply a fan. It can be exciting seeing both people that are not into boxing, plays boxing because we don't know if who will win. I know the other guy has some experience but the other can always practice and he has a background on fighting, that still somehow related to boxing.

For this match, I will give my vote to mcgregor, just to be different, since most of the users have voted for jake paul. The only problem is finding a betting site that will cover this match. Are there sites like that? or betting can be done only locally?

But for the fight, if it's going to be held at the octagon then of course I would safely choose McGregor as it is clear that he have those advantage but if it is in the boxing ring, I would also go for Jake Paul because the kid has also proven that he have those abilities to defeat worthy opponents.
You may be a fan of both fighters but you will have to choose one depending on the type of fighting ring, most likely the fight will take place in a boxing ring because Jake Paul is not skilled at fighting in octagons, so the boxer will benefit because the punching power of the boxer is stronger than the UFC fighter and he is required to follow the rules of the style of the fighter in the boxing ring.

Even a retired boxing can still have an exhibition fight, Mayweather done this already so I agree that there’s no retirement here if there’s a good offer.

McGregor already have many loses even on a boxing, so his reputation is not that good anymore while Jake Paul is still working on his boxing experience with ZERO loss, so this one can add to his winning number if ever. I can’t see any excitement here because there’s no title at stake here and most probably McGregor will lose nothing here.

I understand your point and it is very interesting, however I think that for this fight against MCGREGOR I would definitely lean towards Paul, this reminds me when Mike Tyson said that if he could fight for $1000M it is a very big figure, but nevertheless I would do it with Paul and if this happens in this way it can generate a great fight, but in this case with Macgregor I am not one of those people who likes to underestimate others but for me the advantage is Paul, I respect all kinds of thoughts , but this time I think my vote of confidence goes to Paul.

For the money there's nothing to stake for both fighters, McGregor knows how to bring fans to watch him even in an exhibition fights he still get viewers, win or lose they will earn money but like you if there's a script to be done here, promoters will give the favor to Paul he also have good numbers of viewers who will continue watching him fight.

We never know though if there's any script or both fighters will really bring out their best during this exhibition, that might be a bonus if ever they decided to really fight and show some bloods in front of the fans.

As for script then no one really knows if there's really something behind those movements but we would able to witness and see for ourselves on how they do fight.
You would able to notice it if their fighting movement would really be that sloppy and evasive which is something that is really boring to watch.Its true that both
could really able to generate out that big number of fans who would watch the fight which simply be talking about making revenue.

Both of them have their own set of huge fan base who is literally willing to watch them, but the difference is that McGregor is the true salesman and his techniques on how to sell a fight is really effective and we've seen that numerous times.

But for the fight, if it's going to be held at the octagon then of course I would safely choose McGregor as it is clear that he have those advantage but if it is in the boxing ring, I would also go for Jake Paul because the kid has also proven that he have those abilities to defeat worthy opponents.

Of course I can  Grin To me, Khabib is a shitty fighter, a great wrestler and a cheater (weight manipulation). At the same time, he is better than Paul in all respects, there are no questions. But the advantage in weight, in my opinion, is close to critical. These are not heavyweights where Emelianenko destroyed opponents who were much larger than him, this is a weight category where 15 kilograms are of great importance. I can be wrong, but in this case, tell me, in your opinion, if you take any "newbie" against McGregor, then starting from what difference in weight will McGregor have no chance (or will they be equal) 20 kg? 40? ...?
Not sure how you can say hes bad. Khabib was out striking Mcgregor for much of the fight before ultimately taking him down, and choking him out. Khabib also has done well against Justin on the feet. He definitely isn't the one trick pony that a lot of people think he is. Although, I still don't think Paul is on the level of Khabib even on the feet, so Mcgregor probably finds it easy.

The only issue I have is Conor likes to go 100mph in the first round, and that doesn't really work with bigger gloves since opponents can  take more shots without going down. Then you usually find Conor struggles due to him emptying his gas tank way too early.

I have no doubt that if this fight did happen, Jake would evade for the first few rounds, and wait for Conor to tire, which then would likely be a boring fight, with a Jake decision.

He was just seeing Khabib as a cheater that's why he called him as a shitty fighter because of his weight manipulation techniques (I don't know if he's born yesterday or what Cheesy)

Back to the topic, McGregor or you doesn't have to worry if he charges like a freaking cheetah who charges 100 mph because I bet this fight if it would happen in the future will be held in octagon and not in the boxing ring, I also don't think that McGregor would consider fighting Jake Paul in the ring either.

One reason is enough: he is a cheater. His main advantage is that he took extreme risks when manipulating weight. In addition, he is a one-sided fighter - try to remember his epic victories in the stand? Or just any epic wins? All his fights are exhausting the opponent on the ground due to the weight advantage (well, yes Khabib is a good wrestler).
