Nice payday for Clev and Eddie Hearn there. Jack is part of Mayweather's brand.

Well, at least that makes one proper fight on the card. 


Gervonta Davis also on the card Clap

Wonder can I just pay a tenner to Sky to watch just the rest of the card !

I know what was intended

But would you say, Darron Gibson signed for Sunderland's brandwithout everyone looking at you weird. 

The term 'brand' just bugs me these days CoyneTongue

Fair enough Hoskins. Thumbs Up

Out of interest, who's actually going to watch it? Whether it via a dodgy Kodi stream or an all nighter in a pub or being the brave one and paying the 24.95 yourself LOL

Paulie Malignaggi has quit McGregor's camp after his team started releasing photos of Conor knocking him down, and then Dana White releases a 20 sec video of Conor taking his head off with 1 of his left hooks LOL

Apparently there's a full 35 min version telling a different story but its unreleased thus far.

I know it's only a 20 second video but it does not look good for Paulie. He's been saying all week that it was a pushdown. The left hand landed flush in one of those videos LOL

Maybe the whole sparring session shows a different story but the 20 seconds we seen there looks like Paulie was getting the head taken off him.

Conor's always had that devastating left hook, 1 of the punches I thought Paulie's head was gonna fall off LOL

But yeah he quit because he didn't want to be used as a propaganda tool, says he's not revealing what happened behind closed doors or what's been discussed but mentioned a full version of the video revealing more

It'a all part of the game and the show - If McGregor boxed Paulie over 12 rounds in a proper fight, the boxer wins against the novice. No matter what any leaked video says.

Paulie said himself in his 1st session over 8 rounds McGregor got the better of him, he then listed numerous reasons as to why, just off a flight, was tired, hadn't trained etc. He then said a week later when he sparred 12 rounds he done much better, however from the knockdown in the video it doesn't seem likely.
 
It was a calculated move by McGregor. Paulie talked a lot of sh*t about him and McGregor brought him in to try and embarrass him and he succeeded. I think Paulie has just been talking a lot of sh*t to try and get a fight out of McGregor and a big pay day for himself.

It's all just bluff and nonsense, the whole lot of it, just to sell PPVs. Nothing else.

 I saw a bit of one of the promotional build ups in Toronto I think it was, wtf there was a bigger crowd at that then there will be for the main fight. It was funny stuff, I'd say Mcgregor and Mayweather are having great craic and are on the phone to each other before them.

Here what's the story with this Dana White fella? No interest in Chip Shop fighing aka UFC but heard on the radio over the last couple of years how he and McGregor were always arguing and issuing threats to each other. Now I see he is training him or in his team or some sh*t.  What's that about?

Dana is Conor's boss but also his agent because he saw the personal wealth potential in brokering the fight
