No need to put your favorite guitar on a rematch. There’s not going to be any rematch.
Floyd is walking away from this last dance with a ballpark of $300 million.
That’s $300 million.
He was not very impressive in the early part of the bout and he was getting tagged by a guy in his first professional bout. Father time catches up to all and at 40, he knows time to take the money and go.
Conor would love a rematch. But he won’t get one. Biggest payday of his career. He nets about $100 million and started his own management company. He’ll pull in a lot of coin for not much doing ads and similar for the next six months.
He’ll be pinning over how he could have been in better 12 rounds of boxing shape for many a year. But it’s not his fault. That was a risk going in and it’s hard to simulate what a real championship bout will take when you have zero boxing experience.
Thank God, I love that guitar.
Not to question your ability to see the future but you may have been one of those know-it-all types who said the fight was never going to happen in the first place.
Or Conor will not land a punch, Floyd will KO him in the first round, Conor’s face will be ground beef, Conor will throw in the towel.
In any case, just spent an hour or so debating the details of the fight with my uncle who did not watch the fight.
Hmmm... Did you watch the fight?
