This fight discredits the sport. I really hope it's a one sided bore fest, which will highlight the benality of it.
I can't muster one iota of excitement for it.

There has been talk that the WBC will put the diamond belt on the line for this fight:

Make of that what you will.

D4 you're more than welcome to comment about Mayweather Vs McGregor on this thread but Ward vs Kovalev comments are for another thread unless you're tying it into this fight.

Very interesting to hear Tim Bradley's take on this fight and he's right that Mayweather has never had to face a trash talker and all round wind up merchant like McGregor before. Undoubtedly McGregor is going to try and get under Floyd's skin like nobody has ever done before.
The fight could well be terrible but the build up is going to be terrific, guaranteed.

Conor can get under someone's skin in two minutes if he wants, let alone two months. I've got no idea how many appearances these fighters will make together before the fight though.

I disagree, Conor is great at getting into opponent's heads, you only have to look at what he did to Jose Aldo before their fight that lead to that 13 second knockout.
As for experience Floyd has plenty of it but he's never come up against someone remotely like Conor before. This will be new for him.
Either way it's all just conjecture, we don't really know how much either fighter wants this. They're getting paid nine figure salaries win, lose or draw so it's anyone's guess as to what happens in the build up.

Nice hype video here with some cool slow mo footage of both fighters in action:

The more press conferences the better
Well the cynical side of me says, until I see them together on stage, then I believe it's happening.
But then I might shift goalposts, and say until I see them in the ring, then I'll believe.
I just can't get motivated for this fight.
And I don't like the way it's taking the shine off the epic Canelo v GGG.
But it is what it is..
Hey Stringer I don't think it's taking the shine off GGG vs Canelo at all. That fight is still three months away although I doubt there will be much trash talking between them if their appearance on First Take was anything to go by.

GGG vs Canelo will probably have a boring build up, especially as Canelo doesn't speak much English, or doesn't want to at least.
But the fight will be spectacular so it will probably be the complete opposite of the May vs Conor fight in respect.
So if you want to be fully entertained then catch all the build up to this fight but then skip everything else until Canelo and GGG get in the ring in September
Oh I have no doubt the pressers will be gold.
Connor is auditioning for his eventual Wwe debut.
But will Connor behave himself. Cos it won't take much for Floyd to wind him up..
I don't think floyd stands a chance with Connor in the verbals.
"Who the Fook is that guy?" Is just an all time classic..
