Title: Is Floyd Mayweather for real or is he serious?
Post by: devilsmile on May 14, 2016, 05:01:20 PM
Floyd saying conor ain't no push over, that it could be a tough match between them two :D

LOL
The only thing "serious" going through Floyd's mind is an easy upper 8-to-9 figure payday.

Looking for that easy 50th for sure, IF this happends that is. If floyd gets 100 mil, how much would conor get? Maybe 10 :D ? Pretty good for a leprechaun, but this match may not happend because the leprechaun is greedy and wants more. If pacquiao got greedy, mcgregor will sure as hell get greedy.

In a regulation boxing match Floyd wouldn't even break a sweat and would knock McGregor out at will.

McGregor would not lay a glove on FMJ even once.

Mayweather will beat the hell out of him in the ring.  Conor McGregor won't be allowed to kick either. This will be a lop sided fight.  Mayweather will play with him and when he decides too he will drop him.  

Now if it's MMA fight Mayweather will be taken out quickly by McGregor. Mayweather has zero take down defense and no knowledge of grappling. Even though McGregor isn't a ground guy he knows enough to make someone like Mayweather pass out from a choke.

It would be a beyond a huge money maker as a boxing match.  I would guess the fight won't be made unless McGregor can prove himself in the ring prior.  I can't see him hanging with the top ten in his weight division.

Correct.
If Canelo and PacMan can hardly lay a glove on Floyd and they have been boxing practically all their lives, WTF makes people think Conor could hang with an a guy at the top of the sport of boxing and who has been undefeated for 20 years???

Floyd is The BOSS in this supposed "negotiation" and an mma fight will NEVER happen.

Like I said, and EASY potential $100 million payday for Floyd.  ;)

I can't even pretend to be interested in the outcome because we all know what's going to happen. No god, no spirit, no voodoo spell, no soul market will help conor to win this.

I just want to see the match, see the trash talking, see the awesome hype videos, and the numbers. And I also want to hear how much conor will get. Floyd will get 100 mil if this happens, but how much will conor get?

there is no way this fight will happen

the ufc would have to give connor  permission to fight which wont happen.

if connor took the fight they would sue him    and he would lose for breach of contract.  no way the ufc lets connor fight floyd under boxing rules.


and if this was in boxing  this would be a massacre

Yeah well it doesn't matter if it's a massacre for conor. Conor will still make more money than he has ever made in a single fight

floyd sure sounds concinving that the fight will happen

Yeah, this is what I believe as well. Dana won't let it happen unless he is part of the promotion and The UFC gets its share of the profit.

The question is, why is Floyd talking so much about this if he knows it won't happen? Publicity is fine, but to what end? To promote his new TMT signing of Mikey Garcia? To keep his name out there until he comes back for his 50th?
EVERYBODY knows who Floyd Mayweather is! He does not have to pretend a MacGregor boxing match may happen for people to remember him.

AND...
It is possible Conor makes enough money getting beat up by Floyd that he can somehow survive a Zuffa lawsuit and break his UFC contract. Then he and Floyd team up as co-fight promoters or something. Anything is possible.  :-\

The UFC would gladly take a piece of the action to let him fight.  After the Manny/Mayweather fight bust of Mayweather running the whole fight he knows his big paydays are gone. If he fights this white Irishman from MMA the draw would be almost as big as the Pacquiao fight.  Connor goes away set for life. UFC gets a big payday and Mayweather laughs all the way to the bank.

This fight IS LIKELY to happen because the PPV for it would be ungodly.  Floyd knows he can take out Conor quite easily but he's going to milk it as a tough fight because it will pay more. 

Quite frankly, the payout would likely make Floyd a billionaire easily.

They're not going to fight, they're going to box. If they fought, they'd fight with Ultimate Fighting Championship rules. And in that case, Floyd would get choked out in less than 30 seconds.

Conor would get 10 million....which is more than all the money he's ever made 6 times in MMA.  He would not give a shit.  The UFC can sue but so what?? They have no actual power to stop a fight

STUPID statement. You don't understand the relationship most Black men have towards their mothers.
Floyd has no history of trampling over everything he loves or believes in just for a few dollars.  ::)

No he didn't...his fight with Nate Diaz only gave him 1 million. He's never gotten 10 million purse for an UFC fight or even close.  In March he made history even getting 1 million


Conor would automatically get  A REAL 10 million purse for a Floyd fight but its still peanuts compared to the PPV revenue that he would have access to unlike the UFC where that POS Dana keeps all the money.

Here's a tip for you. UFC doesn't allow "real fighting", either. There are numerous rules and guidelines.

Another tip. In a "real fight", as they most often occur, the more skilled striker has a far greater advantage than some MMA hobo.

That, plus I think we can all agree that holly holm is nowhere near the boxing machine as floyd mayweather is, right? Holly Holm was able to defend against rondas hip throw with ease even tho ronda is supposed to be a "judo wizard"  ::) and holly outboxed ronda 100 - 0 because she timed everything perfectly with footwork. I don't think conors mma skills will have much effect against mayweathers foot work and boxing.

The 1 million was his guaranteed purse not including his ppvmoney, he made $10 million with the ppv for UFC 196.

i doubt it hazbin the fertittas are billionaires floyd and conor are millionaires.  plus the fertittas have friends and influence in vegas

also these people on sherdog who claim they are lawyers more than likely are not. if connor trys o fight  floyd without the ufcs permission

they will sue that low life for everything he has.

since conor isn't US citizen I think suing him won't be that easy.. They could still fight outside U.S soil, Rampage fought at UFC while being under contract by Bellator just recently.. Fertittas are billionaires alright but it's doesn't give them right to do anything

Thanks Captain Obvious!

MMA is much closer to an actual fight. No giant pillows in hands like in boxing, and no referee separating you if you get too close to each other. Boxing is as limited as it gets. All you can do is punch with pillows. Who watches that crap anymore anyways. A great example how some old farts just can't change their habits.

In a "real fight", as they most often occur, the more skilled striker has a far greater advantage than some MMA hobo.

Yeah right.  ::) One low kick is all it takes and the "skilled striker" will be on the ground screaming in pain wondering what just fucked up his leg. 5 seconds after that he'll be strangled unconscious.

all you got to do is watch toney vs couture


toney was a very skilled boxer,

ive been watching mma since the 80's    no way a boxer can beat a mma fighter, without a few years of mma training.


that being said i do think boxers   can take better shots than mma fighters and have better defence against strikes.   

holly holm has been training mma for around 4 years i think she also did kickboxing, so saying she went straight  from boxing to becoming a mma

champion  is not accurate
