NBA: Floyd genuinely scared of Conor

[webshad]

Quite frankly, it is fencing without the swords. You simply have the option of finishing a fight before it's over. If Mayweather went for a ko every time he wouldn't be the fighter he is at his age, he won with boxing for the later half of his career not slugging or brawling.

Dominating in boxing is finishing a fight with pure boxing, just slugging people like Tyson or foreman makes you just a physical specimens in a sport rather than a prodigy in a craft.

Side note: we both know you hate Money, you've criticized him constantly and know he's most likely going to win. You want to start trying to build up a talking point against him before the fight.

So by your logic, in a boxing/MMA fight, when there's a pre-fight conference or face-to-face meeting, a fighter shouldn't say I will KO you in 3 rounds or knock you out cold, etc, etc but rather say "I will take you to a dominating W12 win" because that's a greater win. literally

Don't hate Mayweather, and no I'm not trying to start anything, I simply know what MMA people will say so be prepared.

C'mon, web, promotional stuff? Might as well argue that people who threaten knockouts are pussies, gimme Tyson saying he'll eat someone's children. That's not boxing, can't even bring it up.

Youve criticized money a lot, he's touted as the best defensive boxer of his generation, possibly better than even pernell. You're just here talking about how he has to knock someone out like he has to prove himself further against McGregor.

[Chucho]

LOL. MMA fanboy triggered.

Dana White is a hybrid of Don King and Vince McMahon, he's a thieving bas and is all but out of bankable stars, hence he hitching his train to the biggest combat-sport star ever.

UFC is such a "sports" promotion. From the massive steroid ring Dana runs, to the pimping of his fighters to fatten his pockets, to stealing the WWE business model. that bigoted, roided up boi.

MMA is a fad.
MMA will never surpass boxing. It had a chance and Dana ed that up. Hence, again, hitching his train to the biggest ticket in combat-sports.
Floyd makes more money in one match than all the UFC fighters combined in a year.
Dana exposing his modern BJ Penn for the money.
show that will be pirated.
No one, except triggered MMA Boi here will pay for this show.
Connor's already been knocked out in practice by Paulie got Malanaggi
LOLMMA

Dana is going to book tranny fighters in the Women's division next. ing circus, carny that did more to hurt the sport, but fatten his pockets. Mother in Don King and Vince McMahon to a T.

[unleashbaynes]

Conor has only ever knocked out people with amatuer at best boxing skills. Floyd, even at this age, is too quick and too skilled for him, and this will be a boring fight and idiots like OP will when Floyd wins in a decision.

I'm not. If Floyd wins a decision, we both know what's coming from the MMA fellas.

If Floyd puts on a performance like you say 50% connect etc, well he did that against other boxers.

He needs to make a statement, a "you don't belong here" type of fight and not a Berto performance. Even if he wins a decision, he needs to at least f**k up Conor's face. Other than that it won't look good.

It's all a ing act

What's his best % in the last 10-12 years? I think he got almost 50 vs pac but it's usually at around 40. Hitting at over 50, like 55-60 would be embarrassing for anybody who trained for a professional fight.

I say the only statement he needs to make is clown McGregor, show him that he'll never be at a professional level. Some people are hard to knock out, especially for smaller fighters, Diaz was the biggest guy McGregor fought and it wasn't even a ko.

[florige]

Floyd definately needed better trash talk material verses just saying yeah the entire time. They are probably best buds who will be laughing all the way to the bank. Everyone's on Floyd's side just laughing it up
like it was no big deal. This is fixed on some WWE nonsense.

[Spurtacular]

I honestly think Mayweather will get KO'd.

[mingus]

Connor is going to get killed ugly. He'll make more money doing that in that one night than he will his entire UFC career tho so it works out fine.

When was the last time Floyd killed anyone? If he's not going to kill little past-prime phillipinos, the forty-year-old fairy dancer sure as ain't going to do that to McGregor.

Pinoy is a boxer, knows how to box. Connor will be clowned hard most likely, it'll look like a more one sided Mayweather vs canelo.

McGregor has shown he can more than hold his own with his fists; in fact, that's his preferred method of wearing down an opponent. And he packs a uva a lot more power than 40-year-old fairy dancer.

Probably less punching power than canelo who balloons up to 170 after weigh ins, Tbh. Connor doesn't box, his mma striking doesn't translate to boxing.

Comparing McGregor to that doughboy ginger!

[Spurtacular]

Floyd has been hot garbage for about a decade now.

[Mitch]

Canelo would probably KO McGregor in boxing under 3 rounds, dude is pretty strong. I'd bet he could punch harder, boxing rules and gloves, than McGregor. Almost same size, but is an actual boxer.

Floyd is probably the greatest talent in boxing since the turn of the century, best defense since Pernell.

come on man, id love to see this but you're asking for a miracle here

forgor the knockout, floyd hasnt even been knocked down in his career and people think an mma has a "punchers" chance? lol

worst case scenario for money is connor strategically just pounce him, lands a few good blows in the process. eventually though mayweather will win by a UD. boxing is a point game nowadays and mayweather is the best when it comes to that.

mcgregor is white and mayweather isn't. easy decision for spurtacular

GTFO

A MMA guy who also knows boxing cannot stand toe to toe with a world champion boxer under the rules of boxing. No way, no how, not in reality.

If it gets serious I think McGregor's corner stops the fight or it ends on a technicality.

Floyd's greatest runner in the ring, maybe. Payin' judges for decisions to keep the hype machine going.

Once Floyd got to a certain age, he's only done matches where he can run enough to not get KO'd. The running will only do so much against McGregor, who is much more fearless than anyone he has faced. And frankly, he doesn't need to fear a runner in the first place. McGregor is going to beat the out of him. Book it.

He has to punch people to win, Y'know.

I've seen McGregor take more punishment in one round of MMA than 40-year-old, decrepit Floyd could give in three matches. Sorry, but you're over-rating any technical advantage Boy Penny Fairyfeather might have. And McGregor is a bruiser. Sorry, but running from the very occasional haymaker that these limpweights could give compared to the beatdown that McGregor is going to give is two different things.
