Mayweather v McGregor

[doggler]

It's funny how mayweather talked BS about Golovkin and went silent when promoters  started talking about a possible fight.

[Simple Simon]

all the talk of Marcianos record, just because he retired undefeated doesn't make it the best fight record.

Julio Caesar Chavez had 88 wins and a draw before he lost,
Ricardo Lopez had 51 fights no losses but one draw

[tommywishbone]

Isn't Mayweather also about 75 years old now? WTF? Isn't Sugar Ray Robinson available for the fight?

It's funny how mayweather talked BS about Golovkin and went silent when promoters  started talking about a possible fight.

He's talked shit about Andre Ward just now too, about GGG, anyone who's a threat to his legacy he will belittle them underhandedly. Or blatantly in GGG's case.
Golovkin offered to fight him at catch weight before he retired and he didn't respond. Says GGG needs to move up not down. If he does I'm sure he'll find another reason to belittle him, will probably say GGG needs to go through 5 weight classes to be comparable to himself. "Go beat Joshua at heavyweight!"

Why doesnt that bloated bald fuck put that money up and have floyd fight rhonda first, he was flapping his lips years ago about her beating floyed

[local hero]

I think maywether is struggling, you heard how slow he speaks these days, in his cringe worthy interview after the degale v jack fight it took about 5 mins to get a sentence out

[illuminati]

Why doesnt that bloated bald fuck put that money up and have floyd fight rhonda first, he was flapping his lips years ago about her beating floyd

Ha ha - Thats Great - wish some one would ask him that.

Mayweather-McGregor fight close to being finalized?
.

The fight that makes sense for only one reason – money – appears to be moving ever closer, according to online reports.

A boxing match between the retired Floyd Mayweather, one of the greatest boxers in history, and UFC lightweight champion Conor McGregor, who has zero amateur or pro boxing matches on his record, is on the verge of being finalized, the reports say.

The Irish Sun quoted an anonymous source it described as close to McGregor’s Straight Blast Gym saying that the deal is complete. It had quotes from McGregor, but the McGregor comments did not acknowledge the Mayweather bout.

“The contract hasn’t officially been signed yet because of a third-party holdup, but all the details have all been agreed on,” the Sun quoted its source. “The fight could even be announced within two weeks.”

Given the anonymous nature of the quotes and a lack of confirmation from McGregor, who told the site he’s flying to Las Vegas to clear up his issues with the Nevada Athletic Commission stemming from a water bottle-tossing incident with Nate Diaz at a news conference in August prior to UFC 202, the fight doesn’t appear to be a sure thing just yet.

An ESPN report doesn’t say the fight is done, but it does directly quote Mayweather. He attended the Golden State Warriors-Oklahoma City Thunder game on Saturday, and told ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith that “we’re getting very, very close” to a bout.

It’s always wise to be skeptical, particularly when anonymous sources are concerned. There were literally dozens of reports that the Mayweather-Manny Pacquiao fight was complete in late 2014 yet it wasn’t confirmed until early 2015.

Neither UFC president Dana White nor Mayweather Promotions CEO Leonard Ellerbe responded to messages left by Yahoo Sports.

Given the amount of money the fight would generate, it has to be considered at least possible that it gets made, even though McGregor has never boxed and Mayweather has never fought in MMA.

[Howard]

Just a straight boxing match it's one of the most one sided bouts in history. Utterly ridiculous to think that Mcgregor could even land a glove on Mayweather. Unless they come up with some variation to the rules I won't be watching this farce, if they make it.

Bingo!

Plus , if they fought MMA rules, Floyd would be hurt in a hurry.

Two different sports here, silly to try and compete in the same ring.

you can be damn sure that my man Julian Jackson would have knocked gayweather the fuck out if he would have came up in Julians time 

[MaxedNatural]

Most of you guys here are forgetting or don't know that Mayweather is 39 years old + his last fight was almost a year and a half ago + McGregor is a very good boxer with hands of stone + is friends with Mike Tyson and is being trained by him + McGregor is in/near his prime at 28yoa and on fire + destroyed Eddie Alvarez with PUNCHES 3 months ago + the pressure is all on Mayweather to win in his sport and remain undefeated......

I can see McGregor knocking Mayweather out.
I can't see Mayweather knocking McGregor out.
I can see Mayweather winning on points, like a bitch.

[Simple Simon]

he wont lay a glove on Mayweather.

[ESFitness]

mcnugget is slow with full size gloves.

The other pinhead doesn't knock people out.

Fights gonna be won on points... N not by mcnugget.

[MaxedNatural]

he wont lay a glove on Mayweather.

That's just 1 purple mans opinion. Again, McGregor can box. You guys are acting like he's never thrown a punch in his life. He has twice the punching power of Mayweather.

We'll see - then poof to.

theres a video of McGregor in with a half decent pro, McGregor cant get near him.
Now, how is he going to cope with arguably the best defensive fighter of all time?

I don't know what kind of training Iron Mike is giving him, because he sucks at boxing.

[dseiler]

We are all being trolled.

McMahon school of entertainment 101

1. Pretend you genuinely don't like each other. Don't break kayfabe.
2. Meet privately, orchestrate all the publicity. Together.
3. Fight. Winner isn't important, we all make millions.
4. No one fighter dominates. No knockouts. Decision only. Guarantees a rematch or three.
5. Ref bump, cash falls out of refs pocket.

Even if this was a real fight (it's not) why are people arguing the science of the game? Mayweather is a student of the game and knows Conor has knockout power. When Mayweather fought Canelo, he knew the same thing. So he played points. Stick and move. Don't get caught in a position where you will eat a power punch.

Save your money fellas. This will be Mayweather Pacquiao all over again.

[oldschoolfan]

if this fight is under boxing rules , what a joke connor will get destroyed and if any morons on here think he wont your an idiot,

this fight should be under mma rules, let that fag, mayweather use his boxing gloves if he want to, boxing isnt real fighting

[tommywishbone]

Fight will NEVER happen. I will win the Olympia before this fight happens.

Conor McGregor, Floyd Mayweather reportedly come to terms on a  billion dollar Las Vegas mega fight

[oldtimer1]

Like most are saying. In a MMA fight Mayweather would not last one round. In a boxing match McGregor is going to be chasing Mayweather the whole night in a ultra boring fight.  Mayweather will win every round doing his signature punches in bunches then running.

Connor McGregor fighting FMJR under boxing rules?

Might as well have Rhonda Rousey play tennis against both Williams sisters.

Mcgregor would lose to the top 25 Amateur boxers in his weight div with boxing gloves. McGregor only looks like he has legit boxing skills because nobody can box in the UFC...
