I hope Mayweather gets pummelled lifeless, but he shouldn't even be in the ring. The suspended Vick for dog fighting, suspended Clay for protesting the draft, but serial girl beating? Just what bad boys do. Stuff it, bitch. See you on the mat.

I almost posted this related but different angle yesterday when I saw it, but then I thought: naw, I'll just get involved reading a bunch of sports fan responses, ugh. So I'm just dumping it here

Wife beating and Traumatic Brain Injury - sports at its best. What we got behind curtain #3, besides a set of sparkling crystal and cutlery or a riding lawnmower? Oh yes, Vegas as a newly rebranded "family friendly" city. "That's a stripper, son - now finish your Tony Tiger milkshake or we'll be late for the Pirates ride..." It was at least tolerable when it was a bastion for tawdry and down-on-your-luck, with an occasional good buffet special to pull in the suckers. But now it's charter vacation glitzy mecca for the whole gang. I bet Liberty U "christians" have no trouble rationalizing the cognitive dissonance - trained in balancing multiple angels on the head of a pin.

Peracles... Mayweather?
Yo ...That serial girl beating?
Wow. Yeah... Taking a knee during the anthem seems insignificant in comparison to wife beating...

Fleece of the Century
In a city of illusion and circuses, Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Conor McGregor pulled off a boxing spectacle in Las Vegas fit for the times.

only really need two excerpts:
I did actually wonder (not something Barry claims, just a thought of mine) when I posted that "100 physicians" article whether that was promotional p.r. But then I didn't think it mattered. Either people are interested in buying a gawk at dangerous bloody risk or they're not. I see the NFL as extra popular precisely because it's got so much dangerous gladiator violence and vicey versa for pro baseball

You scoff at the pugilistic titans confronting the field of battle fraught with turned ankles, thrown out arms or the (not-so-comedic as it sounds) jockstrap itch?
