Just my opinion fam. But I think deep down everybody knows Floyd is gonna take it. Assuming this imaginary fight even takes place in real life. It'll be a circus, probably not as good as it's billed or advertised to be. But it''s probably the closet we'll ever get to realizing the classic/impossible childhood dream of Mike Tyson squaring off with Bruce Lee. This the bootleg version, but Ill happily give em a few bucks to see what will happen.



I only hear the talk of chances from mma fans. They think mma boxing is the same as pro boxing on a world class level. Mayweather is going to play around with McGregor. Conor doesnt even have a proper stance, and he telegraphs his punches. This will be a flashback of arturo gatti



bro its the same folks that said Ronda Rousey would whoop Floyd, Laila, Anne Wolfe, Cain Velasquez. same folks.



Alot of hype jobs are being compared to a 20 year champion

@Neek
Lol word. I can see it already.

@Doom
Well, we can't act like boxing wasn't built off of racism and cultural bias. so you already know what 95% of those arguments are about off the bat. Also, how else do you market a fight involving an All-Time great boxer and a great fighter that is out of his element? You gotta build the hype to sell the fight one way or another. Thus Connor suddenly becomes the internet version of Chuck Norris ... the guy that'll finally put an end to the Mayweather reign ... kind of like the last 25 boxers before him.

Honestly, I think Connor has a lot of respect for Floyd. He's essentially his younger UFC equivalent in terms of marketing and public persona. I also think that Mayweather actually respects and or likes Mcgregor as well. Why wouldn't he? They're almost the same person. Somewhere secretly in a multi million dollar estate they're both sipping champagne and collectively scheming how to make this fight even bigger and more profitable than it already is.

I'm glad I created this thread, lots of good conversation on the topic..

If it's going to happen in June or September like they're saying it's gotta be announced soon. Then the real hype will begin... Looking forward to the hilarious remarks from both of them. Both guys are witty when it comes to trash talking.

^^lol!!

On the real pretty much what self wrote. I don't go around parading this but I did amateur boxing for the better part of my teen years mainly cuz my record was 7-5 and nothing to brag about, but Boxing is a VERY technical art. Setting up, disrupting rhythm etc, and Floyd is a master of that. While mcgregor is figuring out how to hit Floyd, money is already setting up for a leading right. But again, as self stated a boxer's chance is always present.

Lol...

Well, Connor isn't oblivious to how to box. Honestly, he could probably be an elite boxer if he put his mind and time to it. So he definitely has a shot to surprise us all. I wouldn't completely count him out. BUT if I had my money on the books I'd go with Floyd every time in this match up. I don't see Connor doing anything Pacquiao couldn't in terms of speed, strength, or striking ability, and I couldnt imagine him getting in Floyd's head enough to distract him or throw him off his game. Thus, I have no idea (save for a random knockout or a TKO) how he's gonna win. BUT realistically you never know. Connor isn't some bum off the street. He's champion pedigree no doubt. But in this particular instance and under the circumstance they are fighting Money May should be given the pre-fight favorite and advantage all the way.

Well for every $1,500 you bet on Floyd you win $100. Insane odds.
