Pompous boxing purists are going to be intolerable the next couple of months. I realize this is more spectacle than competitive boxing match, but like many others I'm extremely intrigued. In today's social climate people are looking for a huge distraction that everyone can enjoy together and this matchup more than any(boxing or MMA) in the last couple of years gives it to us.

Mcgregor doesn't owe MMA fans anything, if he takes this fight then rides off into the sunset never to fight again or defend a belt I'll be happy for him. Get in, get rich, get out with your health should be the goal of any prize fighter.

Edit: These mainstream and boxing comparisons are unbearable. People are saying it's like Michael Phelps vs Usain Bolt. Ugh. If you're going to compare them it would be more like Odell Beckham vs Bolt.
