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

Everyone (should) know this...

 

Yeah, but people are morons.

You'd think most people have enough common sense for realize it takes years of training to reach a world class level (if you ever get there, which most fighters don't) and that you'd get your ass kicked going into a new sport against much better, experienced opposition. But there are a lot of ignorant people who lack common sense.

 

I dunno man. Apparently the Irish fought alongside the Scottish against Longshanks (or so Mel Gibson would have us believe anyway)

 

Yup. Two years ago people were picking Ronda Rousey to beat Floyd. Lol

 

Floyd does tap into those negative stereotypes for sure, but still he's no Zab Judah. He doesn't articulate himself very well ( perhaps it's the Grand Rapids inner city upbringing) but when he gets serious he does talk some sense. Of course the money and cars bullshit is annoying...but that's how he markets himself and it has been working for him so far.

 

There's really NO difference between Zab and Floyd other than Floyd is a great fighter who became super rich, and Zab never became great nor super rich.

There's NOTHING positive worth noting about Floyd the man. Nothing.

 

If you listen to Floyd breaking down fights or careers, he's pretty insightful. Problem is that his command of the English language is lacking.

Zab is just a hoodlum.

 

Zab's a hoodlum but Floyd's insightful??? Can you for ONCE remove Floyd's cock from your throat??

Zab's not the HABITUAL woman beater of the two.

There's one recorded instance last year where Zab allegedly pushed his girl to the floor during an arguement. Hardly commendable, but Floyd has whupped the ass of every chick/baby mama he's ever had.

 

Judah grew up hard, mayweather jr didn't.

 

Beating a woman and being a hoodlum are not the same thing. Some rich, educated, sophisticated men beat their women. Zab is more "street" than Floyd is, IMO.

By the way, I'm not saying Floyd is a sophisticated educated person, before you spin my words as usual. Floyd is certainly leaning that way (street) but Zab is far more extreme and it isn't even close. You wouldn't se Floyd trying to beat up on a ref or causing a riot. Let's be honest you cunt.

 

Floyd is not insightful. If he was I could look past the cuntiness and listen to him. He is tedious to listen to in interviews, just repeats the same shit over and over again. I remember there was a video which was titled something like 'Floyd Mayweather talks about sparring Pernell Whitaker', I was genuinely interested in hearing what he had to say about it but the guy went off on some stupid tangent about money and barely fucking touched on the Whitaker stuff. Insightful my arse.

 

"Insightful"...

The NEXT Time Floyd Mayweather is "Insightful" will Be the FIRST Time, Brother Sly...

You're Trolling Brother X HARD w/This One...

If you get past the "Like I said before" and the stuttering and the other idiosyncrasies and listen to what he says regarding certain fighters as well as his own career and you will realize that he makes a lot of sense. I'm talking about when he's being serious...not when he's playing the fool.

 

Tyson is somebody I would love to discuss boxing with, Floyd not so much, despite being a master of the craft.

 

Tyson was definitely far more of a boxing historian than Floyd is. Floyd is really more about himself and contemporary fighters.

I'm just saying that Floyd makes sense when you listen to him carefully...it's jus that it's easy to miss because of his persona and the way he talks.

 

When he talks about what? The only video of his I found interesting was the SecondsOut one from over a decade ago where he was discussing and showing his defensive techniques (which was brilliant), other than that I can't think of anything.

 

I haven't heard anything insightful from Floyd either. Guys like Roy, Bernard etc can always tell you something interesting, Floyd, not so much. He seems to understand boxing on some intuitive level, he can't describe it in words.

Calling him insightful is the same as some pop singers are called insightful when they don't sound like total blockheads.

 

Infuriating but hardly surprising. If this garbage wasn't being promoted as "boxing vs MMA" I'd root for McGregor to cave his head in.

 

REED's Not Taking the Bait, Brother Sly...

YOU'RE a Smart, Well Spoken, INSIGHTFUL Brother...NOfuckingWAY in Hell Do You TRULY Believe FLOYDfuckingMAYWEATHER is the Least Bit Insightful...

Floyd is 1 Level, MAYBE 2 Levels Higher than his Ol' Man, in Ability to Communicate, Which AIN'T Saying Much...




REED

 

"Insightful" was perhaps being too generous, wrong choice of word. He is smarter than his persona and communication skills suggest though . He says things in a clumsy manner and finds it hard to get his points across...but if you get past that he often makes good points.

An example of this was when he was suggesting that pacquiao may be on drugs. Whether or not he was scared of pacquiao isn't this issue, but what he said regarding it was interesting. He said something to the effect ( in a clumsy manner) that when Jordan, Kobe and other star athletes were kids, they were already head and shoulders above the rest of their peers. He was suggesting that superstars show their worth from early in every sport. However pacquiao was getting knocked out and hurt early in his career at flyweight and then was suddenly knocking out guys at lightweight welterweight well into adult hood....so it suggested something fishy. He didn't articulate himself well, and so many would have just seen a stuttering excuse making fool, but I got his point and it was an interesting one.

 

Zab was probably trying to emulate his dad, Yoel, who's a TRUE tough guy. Zab, not so much.

 

Zab idolized Tyson. He always tried his hardest to act like a mini version of him.

 

If mayweather jr worked on his delivery and how to properly articulate his thoughts on the technical aspects during a fight I think he could offer good insight like jones jr used to. He doesn't really attempt to do so whenever he is talking during telecasts because he is busy speaking on whatever agenda he has

 

Yup, I wouldn't fuck with Yoel Judah. He reminds me of some of those yardie "bad boys" i knew growing up in England.
