You rooting for boxing or mma?
The more I hear about news coming out of Conor's sparring session, the more I realize he will fight dirty when he realizes he's losing.
He roughed up Paulie pretty bad for a sparring session.
There is too much pride involved for both fighters, Conor will lose but won't go down easy like people think.
You rooting for boxing or mma?
To be fair, boxers will win a vast majority of time in their sport and MMA will win in theirs.
In this fight, I don't really care. I would love to see a good fight tho.
Nowadays I really don't cheer for anyone (besides the Spurs but sometimes it is really frustrating), all I want to see is a good fight or game.
You?
Rooting for boxing. I'm with the camp that boxing takes a lot more skill and athleticism.
I wonder what the stipulation was about Connor not using mma moves. It was hinted he'd lose a lot of his purse.
Most definitely. It's a form of art.
You could argue it either way. But undoubtedly, the toughest are MMA fighters. CM would kill Lloyd in the Octagon. That he may win in the ring, too, wins it for MMA for me, tbh.
wtf is this , Connor better be trolling
Paulie looks like he forgot how to box
Good find Mitch.Paulie looks like he forgot how to box
I told you that guy roughed up Paulie pretty bad.
You see him holding Paulie's head and throwing those extra punches. He doesn't know when to stop like a normal boxer, not his fault either because this is not his sport. Even if you show your back, he will continue punching you.
Paulie didn't get pushed down from those 2 angles, he got exhausted and went down from two weak punches. It looks like a kd.
And that earlier video with the funny footwork is the reason this fight will be interesting lol. If Conor would fight like Miguel Cotto, come on who would want to watch this. Let's get this freak show going.
Paulie admitted he was fatigued and lost the round. Dana white released only 3 minutes of the 36 minutes where paulie looked bad. Trolling the boxing world.Paulie looks like he forgot how to box
Money needs to make a statement. Mma world getting y and acting like es.
Got to admit, not overly impressed with CM in these boxing videos coming out. But he does have power and tenacity; and he could still KO Lloyd, nonetheless.
Connor leads with his face. Floyd is going to love that.
That's not really impressive power for boxing, spurt. He looks like he's around Floyd's power in this video, but he'd be canelo level if he threw proper punches
I don't doubt Paulie won most of the rounds, Tbh. If you ever see how the guy fights he goes for volume early on and gasses fast, very susceptible to being finished in the 10-12 rounds.
Really upping the talk game now

I honestly think I'd rather see Paulie vs. Mack at this point. There's real heat there. I still think the Floyd fight is half-publicity stunt. Gentlemen's agreement to go half-speed for 8 rounds and then they maybe turn it on for the last 4, like an NBA all-star game.
If the dude had just shut up, it'd have blown over just fine. CM must be right; his ego got dented.
Paulie did start the talk long before the fight was signed.
Right now, it looks like Paulie is no longer credible.
He also accused Pacquiao of using PED live on TV (which is not common courtesy).
Perhaps he bit off more than he could chew.
By the way, did you see the UFC training camp, it's like wow! It's my first time seeing since I'm not a hardcore UFC fan.
Can't believe a guy who uses boxing as a part of his repertoire has sold the concept of going toe to toe with the best boxer on the planet. It's like a street chess hustler going up against Kasparov or whoever current bad ass is. You can practice all you like, with whomever you like, you cannot beat him and probably won't last long against him, unless it's staged.
Basically the boxing equal to Kimbo Slice in MMA.
Who's dropping cash on the fight?
McGregor is taking this fight because MMA purses suck.
No, he's taking this fight because the crossover of the two sports' biggest mega stars makes him a load of money. And if he wins, his future purses are exponentially bigger. Man, taking es to school...
Paulie looks so out of shape thoughPaulie looks like he forgot how to box
