That is not necessarily true. Former IBF champ Shawn Porter is going to be on the card as will Gervonta Davis, who is an undefeated IBF junior lightweight and is only 22 years of age. But yeah, the "biggest boxing card of the year" could have been bigger and brought in the likes of Andre Ward and such onto the card and make it more worth the $100 price tag.

Good, cause I'm not talking about the casuals. Those ******s are going to drop $100 on the PPV regardless because of the main event and how this is a "dream fight". They need to sell the hardcore fans on why they should be bothered to pick up the remote and watch this train wreck, because most hardcore Boxing and MMA fans are trying to stay away from this **** show like the plague (as they should).

Mikey G, I think it is you that us in for a rude awakening. McGregor couldn't outbox Nate Diaz, how's he going to outbox Mayweather? Conor has about the same chance Floyd would have in an MMA fight, close to zero.

Floyd Mayweather by disqualified opponent +1000.
Will the fight go the distance? Yes +200/ No -275
How many ppv buys? over 4.99mil -210/ under 4.99mil +150
Will either fighter be knocked down or out? Yes -400/ No +250
Will McGregor throw a kick? Yes +650/ No -1800
There are so many easy bets to cash in on. The easiest $ to me is the kick. There is no way a fighter who has worked so hard to make as much as Conor has will jeopardize that with a kick. If he uses any mma strikes other than legal boxing techniques, he forfeits a large portion of his purse.
Edit: But if you're going 1/2 way, you may as go all the way in with the DQ/kick thing I suppose. Plus he can be dq'ed without violating his contract via rabbit punches etc.

I really think Floyd will stop him (tko) but the odds on that don't look as good as I thought they would and Floyd could coast too much.Just Floyd on a straight bet is the best imo and or that and some small stuff on others.

I doubt it even does 2.5 million with the way things are going for ticket sales and interest for this clown show.

People also heaps of money to play powerball in hopes of not having to work anymore until they eventually blow their lump sum of cash on something stupid. To me, the betting on this fight is no different than that. This is the billion dollar jackpot of betting; especially considering the odds at the start of betting and how since then 95% of the bets are for McGregor have moved him to a +300 underdog against a 49-0 boxer in Floyd Mayweather. It just further confirms that this entire circusis a cash grab. Nothing more, nothing less.
