People seem very excited for this fight, and I can see why. But does anyone else feel like this is a step down for our society? Like a new step in the "bread and circuses" direction?
Sorry if anyone feels judged by that, it is not my intention to judge, but I personally just feel a bit turned off by it, while simultaneously understanding the intrigue.

I feel like Celebrity Boxing from 20+ years ago was way past this on the bread and circuses front. This at least feels like a match between real boxers (even if one's past his prime). If I complain about Tyson boxing, I'd also have to complain about all the folks past their prime the Jets keep starting at QB.
