OFFICIAL DISCUSSION: Floyd Mayweather Vs. Conor McGregor |August 26 2017

Maybe

from what I heard. paulie is shot as shit now.

 

Like mayweather would toy with him and clown him. Mcgregor's pacing/stamina will improve. I'd be curious to see it, it certainly wouldn't be a joke fight in my eyes.

 

He has no power in boxing. His weight transfer is terrible.

 

Boxers Have Won Via CONDITIONING Since the Beginning of Time, Hut...

Plus, a Significantly Bigger/Stronger Guy, who JUST Turned 29, Fought a 40 Year Old FINESSE Fighter, Who HASN'T Plied his Craft in 2 Years...




REED

 

Who are you talking to with this stuff?

 

And it wasn't like PBF actually tried to win these early rounds. He was happy to let them go cause he knew that they wouldn't matter. (Also, IMO, there was a kind of tacit agreement that PBF wouldn't make him look too much like a fool)

But then, after all these years. It's pretty obvious that Hut is not the sharpest on in the drawer

 

Sure. And said 40 year old fought a guy who'd never had a pro boxing fight. It works both ways. The point is mcgregor's boxing skills - for as long as he was able to apply them- are clearly, unquestionably LEGIT. He did things with angles, distancing and on the inside which were extremely impressive in there

 

Some Fightbeaters Suggested McGregor Punched HARDER than All of Floyd's Opponents But Pacquiao...





REED

 

Watching Andre Ward do post-fight analysis on ESPN, he's really grown on me, he's far more engaging outside of ring than inside

 

Maybe it'd sell ok but it'd be such a huge step down.

 

Floyd WAS the Best Boxer of his Generation...But his Generation Came and Went...

McGregor WASN'T in the Ring w/Anything that REMOTELY Resembled Prime Floyd Mayweather...




REED

 

It was like the fight script was designed to allow everyone save face and give the appearance of offering value for money

 

You seem singularly determined not to give mcgregor a single word of praise, reed.

 

Sure he Is...

When Pressured, All Floyd Did was Go to the Ropes...Against Porter, that's SUICIDE...

If Floyd PRESSURED Porter, that's Equally BAD for Floyd...The WHEELS Clearly Aren't There Anymore...Porter's an AWFUL Matchup for the Version of Floyd Seen Tonight...




REED

 

Ah, sorry. I have him on ignore, the fact hed posted doesn't even come up on the new forum format

 

Anyone who think McGregor can't box a lick is either an idiot or a hypocrite. Hell, the guy won two championship in the UFC mostly with his boxing, and there is a lot of good boxers in MMA. But there is a world of a difference between being a good boxer and a world class one. I think that Mcgregor could probably have some succes at the regional, euro level, if he start boxing full time. But it's way too late for him to turn into an elite boxer

 

Floyd looked a lot less stinky than I feared...remember Hopkins at his age

I'll give Floyd credit for this fight..coming out of retirement at age 40 for such a huge fight..incomparable

McGregor tarnished MMA as expected...forever the sport with girly stamina

 

Tonight's Performance LEGITIMIZED McGregor's Perspective of the Malignaggi Sparring, for Sure...

Remains to Be Seen If That Footage was Effective Enough to ATTRACT Interest in an Actual Fight...




REED

 

I'm always amazed when you remind us that you actually put me on ignore. Man you must me one emotionnal mess.

Fag

 

If PBF was not deliberately fighting like shit tonight, Porter would without a doubt stop him

 

, I know, but others can

 

JOM? Can't see or hear ya my main man, have a nice life.

 

His Skills were LEGIT Against the WORST Version of Floyd Ever Seen, Hut...LITERALLY, Floyd Walked him Down, Behind a Winky Wright Guard, for MORE Than Half the Fight...

Floyd WASN'T Trying to Outskill McGregor, Bruh...

REED's a BIG Fan of McGregor Too, but You're Crushing EXTRA Hard Right Now...
