Conor was never going to win by decision. Floyds boxing is in another stratosphere. Conor needs to make it ugly and try to hit Floyd with heavy shots.

It's hilarious that you think this fight will even come down a judges decision. McGregor will win a round or two but he isn't coming close to taking 12 rounds

Connor McGregor has about as much chance of knocking Mayweather out as I do.

This is a really good point. Boxing judges have a long, long history of trying to protect the sport from embarrassment...

Honestly, if Floyd doesn't knock out McGregor, I think it should be held against him.

23 wins by knock out, and it needs to be 24.

All Conor has to do is lean on Floyd and be agrassive and land half as many power punches and jabs and every other type of punch there is. That's how ya win boxing matches.

The biggest false narrative being put out about this fight is that Connor is a brawler and is going to be super aggressive. He's not. He's much more of a counter striker. He uses his length to catch guys on their way in (Aldo).

Well, he's gonna lose because he won't be able to hit mayweather. Not because the judges are paid off.



Just for clarification. Are you saying that at the end of the fight, compubox will say that CM has zero punches landed???


If so can we bet? Lol

Manny paq. Is about aggressive as you can get and a top level boxer and fm dispatched him rather easily after the early rounds. Cm has the puncher's chance and that is all. Complete unwatchable blowout otherwise

Agreed he's a good counter for mma standards

I would think he'd try do the same thing against mayweather in boxing but I'm not sure

Connor is a counter puncher also. Im not sure what his strategy will be for this fight though.


The most skilled boxers in the world can't hit the champ. fricking McGregor is a slow poke compared to them. "Counter Puncher" okay

His strategy is to promote and pick up a check. This is going to be a mockery of boxing as if last night wasn't enough of a fraud. FTW for this stupid fight.

He is a counter puncher, but he's no fm or even near Juan Manuel Marquez.

For his discipline of mma he's a good counter puncher

I think he will fare better than people are predicting, but only because he will be agressive like Horn and it will look like he's backing Floyd down while Floyd points him and runs.

He's getting stopped in 6-8. Dude is used to fighting 5 minutes, not 36.

Don't even matter. This is so ridiculous. Basically a Senior in HS whose a great hitter for his age going up against a MLB pitcher say, Randy Johnson throwing it 102 mph and the kid now has a wooden bat. That's about how I view this. Oh and this kid has to hit a home run.

I have no idea why people believe Floyd has no offense?

Of course it doesn't matter

I'm just stating that he's technically a counter puncher and good for mma standards but he's no boxer. For some people they think he's an aggressive striker in mma

My idea is this. Let's make it a boxing match but MMA gloves with no martial arts tactics or cut the ring a 1/3 give Connor MMA gloves and Floyd boxing gloves. Floyds taking this fight 100% on his turf and it just shows you Connor has zero care about actually winning this thing. It's 100% money grab.
