Mayweather v McGregor

[ratherbebig]

shannon briggs is even louder and more annoying than kalimuscle

[goku]

McGregor getting schooled in sparring by Van Heerden (who was told to take it easy on him. He's in the white)

Sparred Errol Spence recently in LA and had to be cut short apparently. Spence said politely in an interview afterwards that McGregor would struggle against lower tier fighters and green amateurs let alone one of the modern greats.

Needs to stick to the octagon but he's looking for a life changing sum of money. He knows he'll get embarrassed but is probably willing to for silly money. As much money if not more in one night than he'd make in his entire UFC career.
Floyd probably doesn't have the power in his hands to knock him out (hasn't had a stoppage since 07 against Hatton I think) but he'd get a stoppage after toying with him up until the mid rounds IMO. Easy nights work

[Redux]

Nobody wants to see Mayweather get his ass handed to him more than I do. Nobody.
But McGregor ain't going to be the one to do it.
Mayweather is the best defensive boxer ever. Ever.  Guys that spend their entire lives boxing haven't been able to hit him.
There's no way that someone like McGregor, who isn't even a good boxer by MMA standards is going to be able to hit Mayweather.
Mayweather will make a fool of him in a boxing ring. It's doubtful that Mayweather would knock him out, he's a pillow fighter and can't even knock out the women he beats up, but he will rat-a-tat-tat McGregor anytime he wants to all fight long and avoid everything McGregor attempts to throw at hiim.
And yes, I do hope it happens on the very rare chance that somehow McGregor can slip one by Floyd and plant his ass firmly on the canvas.

The only fair way to do it is for them have a boxing match and a MMA fight. In the boxing match Conor will get beat bad. It will be ugly.  In an MMA match Mayweather would be beat inside of one minute. Couple of kicks to the legs then he would be submitted.

One thing I really believe. It would be the biggest money maker of all time.

how about a tag team

mayweather can pick another guy and mcgregor can pick one

[Kwon]

Well, if they're offered 25+ million USD , they're both set for life and have nothing to lose. (Floyd is already set for life, but more millions cant hurt)

Wont hurt their legacy one bit regardless who loses.

Hell, i'd fight anyone for 25+ million USD.

[Moontrane]

Floyd Sr. would outbox McGregor.  Today.

what if they changed the rules in the last minute so instead of fighting you would be mudwrestling two honchos with giant dildos for 25 minutes, no stoppage, no referee, no throw in the towel, no cry for help and the last 5 of those minutes were in the dark?
i bet you would take less than 25+ million USD for that.

I'd pay 25+ million USD for that. (No Schlomo)

even Darren Avey?

ANYONE but the Dreaded Darren "Dominator" Avey!

what if ufc replace goldberg with bob chic?

what if ufc replace goldberg with bob chic?

Then i'd say Mayweather would have a chance.





Hi Sergi.

[cephissus]

Nate Diaz picked him apart boxing, how on earth does he think he can cope with Mayweather.

Maybe stick to commenting on fights you've actually watched

[Simple Simon]

Nate seems to land a few shots in this highlight reel.

Sure Conner hit him, but fuck me, the Diaz brothers are not that scared of fighting with their faces.

How many times do you think connor would hit Mayweather.

[Matt]

howabout mayweather vs mcgregor in the leg extension?

set after set until one of them breaks.

i'd pay for that.

I'm willing to take them both on in a $10 million winner takes all local strongman contest in the 170-lb category.  I will even give a call to my connections to ensure their $50 entry fees get waived.  

[FREAKgeek]

In a pure boxing match, Mayweather would absolutely annihilate McGregor. It wouldn't even be close.

We are talking about the best boxer of all time (arguably). If Conor can't use his elbows, kicks or any takedowns, he is useless against a guy like Floyd.

Dana is also a piece of shit to think that he can low ball a guy like Mayweather into taking a fight for $25M. Mayweather makes Dana look poor in comparison and does way better promotion than White.

I would pay to watch this fight. But just like we saw with Ronda, just because the UFC/MMA hype machine decides to build up some of their talent and peg them as killers that would destroy professional boxers in a boxing ring under boxing rules, shit can and most often times will go very wrong.

Put the best boxer in the world in an MMA ring and have him fight under MMA rules and he will get defeated. One takedown and he would get submitted. Enough kicks and he won't be able to defend, let alone get close enough to his opponent.

Put the best MMA fighter in a boxing ring and have him fight under boxing rules and that MMA fighter will get fucked up, especially if he fights a boxer with the skill set of Mayweather.

"1"

Dana is acting selfish as usual, using the UFC to satisfy his personal love for boxing.

[tommywishbone]

Dana White is 1000 times worse than that freak Joe Weider ever was. He's the luckiest idiot in the long history of lucky idiots.

[polychronopolous]

This whole thing is so stupid.

There are at least 10 UFC guys I would much rather see McGregor fight.

In his proper weight class ?

Name them!

[SOMEPARTS]

First off .... Floyd will never risk being choked out in an MMA fight. The end of his brand should that occur.

Second, he wouldn't do it for less than 100 mil.

Third .... I would give McGregor about a minute and a half in a boxing ring with pure boxing rules.

Four - I hate Floyd but let's have some reality here...

Would they use boxing or MMA gloves?

I think with the MMA gloves Floyd could knock out McGregor, but the lighter gloves may be connor's only chance of catching Mayweather.

last time mayweather got paid 25 million was 10 years ago he said

What would ever motivate someone like May Floydweather?

Since people say he wouldnt even get out of bed for 25 mill USD?

Would 100 Mill motivate him?

Maybe the challenge?

Maybe shutting the naysayers up?

Sounds like he doesnt really need money.


Hopefully Gorgar McConor says something really insulting to him, making him accept via emotional reason.

I'LL SHOW THAT GUY!!!

Shutting up more of his haters and making a cool 100mil doing it.
Not sure if it would count toward 50-0 but if it does it would mean he breaks Marciano's record.
I see it more of an expedition rather than a proper boxing match, so maybe he uses it to tune up for his real retirement fight to beat Marciano's record and retire 50-0

All this will never happen though mind you LOL
