McGregor vs Mayweather

[Sarge]

Easy, brother easy. Mayweather is a runner who has had the luxury of hand picking opponents in the most forgettable boxing era since the 30's. He is grossly over rated and makes for dreadfull fights.

Exactly. He is hardly the best fighter of all time.

 

[Sarge]

I may be the only person alive that doesn't give a rip about this fight. I'd rather watch a minor league baseball game.

I'm with ya there.

 

[Manwiththeplan]

Apparently the winner gets this...I think WWE should sue for trademark infringement

They look different, but the concept is the same...not to mention their very WWEish promotion of this fight

 

[Stryker44]

Why doesn't Dana White match up Amanda Nunes against McGregor? It would be a closer fight than this.

 

[Stryker44]

Exactly. He is hardly the best fighter of all time.

49-0 is indisputably good.

 

[Stryker44]

Absolutely to your last line, Risen.

McGregor in a street fight would crush May's skull.

I think Nunes could take McGregor out.

 

[mattjames2010]

I think Nunes could take McGregor out.

Men and women are separated for good reason - it would be devastating. Nunes would be in a wheelchair after the fight.

This reminds me of people wanting Rousey and Mayweather to fight a couple years ago.

Where did I say he wasn't good?

 

[LittleBoyBlue]

Exactly. He is hardly the best fighter of all time.

Agreed. He is probably the best defensive fighter of all time. But that's because he wants to be defensive for 10 1/2 rounds out of 12.

Chances are she would strike him with a good shot.... then he would end her.

 

[Doc50]

It will be a let down. Matty, why am I so drawn to this? Slap some sense into me, brudda!

Yeah, I dropped the $99 for Showtime HD -- gonna have several polarized dudes and adult beverages. Will have lots of side bets.

My own local conflict may overshadow the fight.

Same weight and both trained. It would be a fair fight. Especially because he is a leprechaun.

Most of McGregor's fights have been main events or title fights so they are actually Five, 5 minute rounds.

That is pretty grueling, and grappling ect is much more tiring than boxing.

I think Floyd wins, but I would a bit surprised if McGregor's conditioning is going to be an issue.

the pacing in an MMA match is more frantic than boxing, and maywether has not used frantic pace in a while.

 

[Stryker44]

Could Mayweather beat this Irish chump with one hand behind his back?

 

[CATCH17]

Floyd will only win if he fights super conservative..

Mcgregor is taking this one.

 

[TellerMorrow34]

I think Nunes could take McGregor out.

Doubt it.

She'd probably back out the day of the fight.

Connor would wind up fighting, and beating, someone else on the card.



That said Mayweather will win tonight because of his style. He will jab and run his way to a points decision, as he always does. Floyd is not stupid. He's not going to stand in there and give Connor any chance, at all, to land any big left hands.

It will be a tremendous let down of a fight, as all Mayweather fights have been for years, because they're all boring.


I'm at work so I don't get to see it but, boring or not, I'd be watching it tonight with my friends for the off chance that McGregor gets the chance to land some nasty lefts and shocks the world.

It would make my night if he KO'd "Money" and ended his perfect career.

 

[Silver Surfer]

In this "Clash of the Titan(ic Ego)s, I'm rooting for this outcome. My reaction would be the same as the Referee's.

 

[Trouty]

Anyone else order?

Or am I the only dummy @haleyrules

Have it on, now. Anyone else here?

I am it reserved for 8 pm!

Boxer, I'm oddly drawn to this circus.

This is nothing like Canelo/GGG next month. My brother, I know why this bothers you. You're a true boxer.

But what about Alzado/Ali??
