    Is it legal to faint kicks in boxing ? Obviously he wouldn't do some karate kicks but would it be legal to lift your foot off the floor quickly just to fuck with Floyd and hopefully catch him reacting?

    I don't see why it wouldn't be legal. It's not like he's using it to cause damage or anything:

    Seems like something that could work once, and then PBF, being the astute fighter he is, would not fall for it again. I could be wrong. But shit like this isn't gonna save McGregor from losing his pro boxing debut.

    Conor will definitely be bringing a bag of tricks into the ring with him. I wouldn't be surprised tat all to see him fake kicks and do a little wrestling in the clinches etc. I'm sure Floyd's prepared for anything...knowing how crazy this Irishman is.

    I don´t see what he can do - Im sure the contract is more than water-tight.
    Like, they´ll be something in there similar to when Mayweather fought Canelo regarding Canelo weighing at a certain weight at certain points in the 6 weeks leading up to their fight.

    Im interested in seeing how McGregor deals with being hit harder in his life than ever before....

    Sly stop pretending pbf is facing anyone remotely as good as Gatti. He is not. He is facing a guy with 0 professional fights.

    Whatever b.s. you can dream up to make this seem interesting is up to you. People with common sense realize it is a sham.

    When i see even the slightest hype building around this fight i get annoyed because it is such an obvious scam. For the most part, people on this site get it. But any sign of hype still needs to be nipped in the bud.

    But it´s what the ´fans´ want, Doub.

    You think Dana White lay in bed at night: ´Hmmmm.....I wonder how Connor would do against Floyd?´
    The fans/public want it - the media have reported it as such and the promoters have made it.

    The public want this fight, regardless of its worth or importance.

    Everyone is talking about this fight and we´re 2 months away.

    Double L and other die hard boxing fans are looking at this fight teh wrong way.

    It's not supposed to be a serious boxing match. That's not the point of it. It's supposed to be a unique event. That's it.

    If you think of it in just that way...you'll stop getting angry and you'll just sit back and enjoy the ride. It's a spectacle, nothing more.

    Poor Gatti, trying to block and duck the right hands after they have landed.

    That fight was a massacre and a mismatch.

    This is an even bigger mismatch.

    God. Couldn't gatti keep his left hand up? Got hit with three punches in a row over his left hand (and it might have been more; the video ended). Pathetic.

    When one of the great ams of all time, Vasyl, loses his first pro fight....well....come on. As much as I respect Floyd, I detest everything about him. A northern English man of Republican Irish parentage...of course i do. As a HUMAN... everyone can agree he is melt of the highest order. The paddy does not have a sniff of the knickers of a chance. This fight is as fishy as they come. Like the HOF poster Reed said, the build up will tell us everything.


    On another note.....isn't it sad all the great characters of this most idiosyncratic and cynical board disappeared?

    I think the missing people fall into 3 categories;

    1. Got owned and fled
    2. Got bored and fled
    2. Died

    And re McGregor, I have no doubt he'll go for a DQ rather than get embarrassed, so I look forward to him doing something interesting/stupid and causing a shitstorm.

    There is a clause in the contract. If he does anything like that he's not getting the coin so no not gonna happen.
