Conor Mcgregor just took away possibly up to $100 million dollars for getting into the rink tonight with arguable the greatest boxer of all time, and getting dropped in 10 rounds.
It started competitive, but Money Mayweather did what he's done his whole career, be patient, consistent, and seal the deal.
The question is, how did this fight get sold where its looking to gross between 300-700 million dollars? Boxing doesn't even have a league. Whats all the hype? And how did this happen?
McGregor was able to build an image (even after losing in MMA) and captivate peoples imaginations by selling himself. The image he sold is the ultimate macho, don't give a rip about you, bad boy persona you could create. And he was excellent at it. He can now fade into oblivion as another of Mayweathers dropped opponents. But does he really care? 100 million dollars later?
I should teach my kid to trash talk...
@breakthrough you and I both know the two probably had a meeting one day, and was like we both know the out come but lets use the mayweather image, and get MAA fans to endorse us. By doing so they just took all of Dana Whites loyal followers and the WHOLE MMA industry brought them over to Ringside, and temp merged the two industry's to create several millions for both, new promoters and amazing promotions thus equaling two men probably a little banged up , semi sore, with BIG ASS smiles on their faces who are both millions and millions richers. still were not even taking in to account the merchandise and brands they've promoted which equals several new cars, houses, airplanes. Honestly at the end of the day lets just call it what it really is... AMAZING marketing and awesome sportsmenship. . .
