Thatโ€™s rightโ€”it looks as if UFC President Dana White and Money Mayweather Promotions have pulled it off and are making this fight happen, Yahoo! Sports reports. Itโ€™s truly going to be a waste of all of our collective time. But are we going to watch it? Of course we are. Is it going to suck? Of course it is! And hereโ€™s why: Mayweather is the best boxer who doesnโ€™t get hit. Other professional boxers at the highest level of boxing could not hit this man.

โ€œWhite Irish UFC guyโ€ has trained his entire life to use four weaponsโ€”both feet and both handsโ€”and he comes into this fight giving up two of those. This is a modern-day old-school circus attraction, and Iโ€™m not talking old-school Barnum & Bailey shit; Iโ€™m talking cowboy-tent-show garbage.

Want to know what you get when you mix professional boxing with the UFC? You get the WWE. This is going to be a damn mess. Will it break box-office records? Most likely, because Mayweather sells fights only because people want to see him get his block knocked off. Heโ€™s great at being the bad guy. Heโ€™s arrogant and abrasive, and heโ€™s got the money to be both.

The part that is missed because of Mayweatherโ€™s troubles outside the ring is that heโ€™s a brilliant but boring boxer. Make no mistake about itโ€”heโ€™s a boring boxer because heโ€™s that good at not getting hit. And this white Irish wrestling guy who has made a name for himself following the Mayweather playbook has literally worked himself into a huge payday by being a white version of a black guy.

America loves that shit.

So everyone will pick a side and hope that their respective side wins, but let me save you some money: This fight, if you can even call it that, wonโ€™t be close. In fact, unless Mayweather stops moving and allows himself to get hit just to make it interesting, itโ€™s going to be a bloodbath.
