He'd make more as an MMA fighter. But if he wanted to extend his career and build his bank account more, I could see him getting into boxing once he's lost a time or two more in the octagon.
I'd be surprised if the fight didn't do well, not that it's a worthwhile fight but because it's a spectacle and a lot of people just want to watch it because of what it is. Floyd probably should done better hyping the fight though![]()

The very 1st round of this fight will be epicso many curious minds.
It will die off thereafter because eventually, the boxer will take over.
Probably, most people are expecting Connor to disqualify himself with a kick or something if it goes past 4
Let's just hope there isn't a "backroom" agreement to play it up for the fans, turning this bout into a glorified WWE match, with Floyd dancing around and points boxing McGregor with light jabs, while McGregor overthrows power shots.
This should have pride on the line for both parties. Full speed from the opening bell. Floyd really needs to demolish McGregor to get a "win" for boxing. If he lets Connor last 12 rounds, media, et al will claim MMA fighters are the kings of combat sports.

Floyd Sr. said they're going to go for the KO, but money has brittle hands and I don't think he can pull it off anymore. He might wear him down and cause a tko though
you're lying. You're not putting any money on this fiht. You don;t need to go to vegas for that. There is online betting.
yeah but ppv #'s are probably going to break records. those ufc fans are sonthirsty for this![]()
I doubt CM has the stamina that FM has. He's not used to going that many rounds and a lot of his time in the ring is on the mat. This could be like that.
I'm also thinking a Hatton like tko is going to happen, if he can't ko Floyd before 6 then he'll just suc b to exhaustion by 10-11
Okay, you need to take it easy on pounding the liar button, dude. I don't do online gambling; never have; and I don't do so, knowing that certain places have better odds on their parlays. I gamble on sports when I'm in Nevada or not at all. I have my reasons for that.
I'll be honest, Vegas odds have put the seed of doubt into my mind. But I know that the odds are skewed because of all the money flowing towards Mayweather whom regular gamblers have learned not to bet against.
Would you bet against an NBA team if they faced an NFL team in basketball?
Could you give me a more re ed analogy?
Today's cuck.
It's a pretty good analogy. NFL players don't know how to play basketball, so would you bet against the professional basketball team?
This will be every round in Connor vs Money, bet wisely![]()
If you asked me could the most athletic NFL player be an NBA all-star that'd be closer to a fitting analogy. As it is MMA is boxing on steroids.
MMA is boxing without defense
Here's what you'd get if MMA fighters had a serious boxing match
Brah, I don't plan on watching your nine min vid. Plus, I don't know how showcasing two established boxers fighting is supposed to be an adequate analogy.
Tbh, it's exactly what somebody like you would enjoy. No troll![]()
I wouldn't say MMA is boxing on steroids. Thats a pretty poor analogy.
They are vastly different sports. You obviously need a more complete skillset in MMA than boxing. Jon Jones would murder any boxer in a street fight tbh.
Edit: I just saw that the dumb ass Spurtacular thinks McGregor is gonna win. What a ing idiot.. McGregors sparring partners beat the piss out of him, yet you think he is gonna beat the greatest defensive boxer of all time? Nate Diaz would beat him in a boxing match.
Splain.
If it's poor it's because it ignores the "technical skill" of boxing. But the two sports are cousins. And to be frank, its much easier for an MMA fighter (especially a puncher like CM) to get into the ring than it is for a boxer to get into the octagon, where real fighting takes place. Maybe the technical advantage would be enough against most MMA fighters for Floyd. But the punching game is actually CM's forte, so that argument only holds so much water for me.
I agree with the bolded part of your statement.
Connor could possibly box against some lower level pros with some success, but to think he has a chance against one of the greatest of all time is asinine. Obviously on the flip side Connor would tear that ass up in the Octagon or a real fight for that matter.
The "greatest defensive fighter of all-time" is now 40. Taking fights against past prime guys like Pac dude is how he has managed to stay undefeated when he has been due for a loss for years. Sorry but eight years past prime; no real fighter should be scared of that.
Considered the "best round in boxing history" because it's one of the only high level boxing bouts where people just savagely beat eachother. You don't seem to like defense in boxing so there you go![]()
