    In the end, all the hype, all the blather over Mayweather vs. McGregor was about one achingly obvious thing: moneyhttp://nyti.ms/2wYhZPv

        It has always been about money. What else is new? Boxing is a savage remnant of the Roman death games. It should be banned.

        The audience - world- enjoyed the event. Of course it was for money. Mayweather and McGregor were very clear on that. Not a Fleece.

        It was something PT Barnum would've been quite proud of. I think people felt entertained. Any entertainment expense can be second guessed.

        I never would have watched if I knew prize fighting was fighting for a prize of money. I thought it was for a scholarship.

        You mean the boxers, trainers, promoters, judges, ring models, announcers, vendors, ticket takers and EMTs weren't doing it for fun?
