Mayweather vs McGregor
Great stuff
Been following this for ages
I don't care how much of a farce it is, I'm watching it
McGregor is in a class of his own. I'm sure he'll be up for it.
McGregor doesn't stand a chance. He's not even the best boxer in the UFC, which is a closed organisation. Never mind good enough to bea t one of the best there's ever been.
To make it fair they need to allow for takedowns. No group game necessarily, just defence and points scoring through takedowns. That'd even it out some.
Yeah ... it's going to be an interesting clash. I'll be cheering for McGregor. Hope he slam dunks Mayweather.
Probably not ... but a man can hope for an upset.
Yep, same here, I am all for McGregor
This should eclipse the May-Pac PPV numbers
That left of McGregor's is devastating.... he just has to land it, which I am sure he will at some point
Mayweather will run all night, like he usually does, but McGregor will land at some stage
That... is what makes this fight interesting...
Never let it be said that an Irishman can't shti talk his way to an $80M payday.
The worst result for McGregor is setting his family up for life. Best result will be legendary status plus the payday. Literally nothing to lose.
Some points to keep in mind for McGregor and Mayweather
Pros C - McGregor will be the far bigger fighter of the two on fight night
Pros C - McGregor is fighting at his peak weight, so no draining weight
Pros C - Mayweather battles a lot against Southpaws
Pros C - Mayweather does not have much knockout power these days, too defensive
Pros C - McGregor has nothing at all to lose
Pros C - McGregor wants to make history
Pros C - McGregor can knock anyone at this weight cold, with either hand
Pros C - McGregor is incredibly motivated to shock the world
Pros C - McGregor stalks his opponents all the time, never backs off
Pros C - McGregor's punch accuracy is not matched
Pros C - McGregor can always say he just lost to the best boxer of this generation
Pros C - Mayweather has ALL the pressure on him in the fight to win, not Connor
Pros F - Fighting with 10 ounce gloves, heavier than usual for McGregor
Pros F - Probably the best defensive fighter most people have ever seen
Pros F - His ring experience will definitely assist him with escaping danger
Pros F - Also fighting at a regular weight, so no draining weight
Pros F - Mayweather's footwork in the ring will be a massive advantage
In true McGregor style, he is going to make Floyd very uncomfortable with his verbal sparring, which he is brilliant at.
He gets in your head, no doubt about it
His confidence is more than any other fighter that Floyd has faced
So it's a KO in the 1st round for you.
Sounds too easy if you ask me.
He's not known for his punching power and besides that McGregor has had his chin tested a few times.
Can't see it happening.
No ways Moz
Mayweather is supremely skilled, but not the best ever, as he himself states, as he ducked far too many fighters in their prime.
But he is a tactician of note and deserves all the accolades that he gets, except TBE.
Having said that, I would never right McGregor off either.
One punch can change everything, and if McGregor lands on Mayweather and gets Mayweather hurt, it would be interesting indeed.
When Mayweather felt Maidana's power, he ran away from him all night, I anticipate the same happening here.
Not saying Mayweather won't win, that is almost a given to a betting man, but I am all for McGregor here, as I like this underdog....
Going to be as one sided as when James toney tried his hand at mma.
Yeah ... I guess ... Mayweather's no fool.
Too true Deddy
But..... when Tony took on Couture, he was a completely shot fighter, way... way past his best
McGregor is in his prime
As I said, as a betting man, it has to Mayweather all the way
But I am an underdog fan..... will be rooting for McGregor
What does he stand to gain.....a big pay day and set for life.
Worth a buck or two on the side for McGregor.
