Let's face it, aside from the main event, most boxing undercards are underwhelming and hard to get excited about. Fans cough up $60 for pay-per-view, hoping to see at least one really good scrap.
That could change for one night if Floyd Mayweather Jr. (49-0) and Conor McGregor (21-3) can agree to terms on their proposed mega-fight.
48-year old future Hall of Fame pugilist Roy Jones Jr. (74-9) wants to step into the same ring to fight 41-year old mixed martial arts legend, Anderson Silva (34-8).
"Roy Jones vs Anderson Silva and Mayweather vs McGregor double headline card UFC invasion. Would be biggest event of all time period," Jones tweeted earlier this week.
Silva seems ready for the challenge. He responded to Jones via his Twitter account by writing: "All a dream needs to be accomplished is someone who believes that it can be done. #JonesJrVSSilva #SilvaVSJonesJr."
Those two boxing matches on the same card would be must-watch-TV. Fans would get the chance to see Mayweather possibly become the first boxer to achieve a 50-0 record with a win,. breaking his tie with Rocky Marciano. And also witness two mixed martial arts greats fight in matches under boxing rules.
Would you tune in? What are your picks if this dream card comes to fruition?
