his MMA footwork is null and void in boxing. MMA fighters fight in levels to defend against take downs. Conner is going to have to completely change his footwork to fight Floyd. 

just like boxing is fundamentally flawed for MMA

MMA is fundamentally flawed for boxing 

this will be an embarrassing fight for Conner. If im wrong, i will gladly come back to this thread and eat any crow that gets thrown at me. . but this whole fight is just a circus act and should be nothing more then an exhibition fight for charity

It'd be cool to have Conor come in and just kick him in the head completely snoring knockout and just walk off... LOL


with that said Floyd is going to demolish him

word this reminds me of the ali vs inoki boxer vs wrestler moment in the 70's, i believe. It was never taken seriously. Its two completely different world. the naunces in boxing is not to be taken lightly. unless mcgregor has done pro boxing and okie doking everyone lol (still he's not beating floyd) then it could be a decent fight.

This is Conor sparing with an actual boxer, to gauge how he will do.

It's going to be 12 rounds (thats what they do right?) of Connor swinging and missing repeatedly. He's going to get so frustrated

Hahah yess. I saw this a few days ago, the guy was trolling him so hard online. All the videos of his sparring has been anything but impressive. I'm surprised they're still letting it leak out to be honest

this fight is only happening for 2 reasons 

A) its just a cash grab for bother conner and floyd 

b) do floyd can hit that 50-0 record to surpass Marciano without even having to work for it. . .

the whole thing is a sham, and i really hope people arent investing too much money or hope on Conner winning

Don't get me wrong, I hope Conor KO's him in the first round, but I see the fight playing out like an Irish possum vs an emotionally unstable Neek. One sided
