    Yeah it is. What I mean is Mayweather is a specialist in underwheleming if you're looking for an action packed fight. Usually I enjoy watching him and am thoroughly impressed at him delivering a boxing masterclass against world class opposition, but obviously this fight is an exception to that rule. As far as I'm concerned, if he decides to pot shot his way to a UD that's a 'event win' for Conor.

    If they could change it to about 11.30pm, I might stay up to watch it.

    Floyd kept it classy last night, telling his guys to keep their mouth shut.

    He's absolutely * at being humble, he should just give it the full * routine all the time.

    Even his thanks completely lack genuineness.

    Yeah I was hoping to catch it live but not invested enough to be up at that hour.

    Gonna watch it first thing Sunday morning when I wake up on Sportsmania on demand, if I avoid my phone and the tv I'll easily avoid the result.

    Honestly not even hyped about this at all.

    Watching the embedded and that last press conference to try and get some excitement for it but really can't get into it.

    Keeping it classy is something both these guys are terrible at.

    McGregor is pure class when dealing with the public in and out of the public eye, which has been well documented.

    His 'class' in dealing with the public has been documented? Where?

    Neither of these guys are classy - their entire reputations are built on materialism and having more than everyone else in their field. They both rely of shouting and swearing to get their voices heard and have built personalities based on greed and wealth. They care about personal wealth first and foremost.

    You can love/hate these guys as much as you like, but classiness is the last thing most people will associate with either.

    The Klitschko brothers are what I would describe as classy, GSP is classy, Fedor is classy.
