Looks like the fight will be in August. This is gonna be ugly for McGregor. I like Floyd but I do hope that McGregor will catch him with one solely because it'll be unexpected and not the complete mismatch that the fight should be in theory. It's gonna cost a small fortune to watch on PPV I'm gonna head up to the pub to watch it.
Anyone give McGregor a chance?
However much I want McGregor to win, theres absolutely no chance he does. A guy who hasn't had a pro boxing match against one of the greatest, its a little ridiculous. Same goes for Mayweather if it was MMA, he has no chance against McGregor in a cage.
i told myself id never pay to see that lame fight but the hype is kinda getting to me. Plus the undercard fights will likely be way better
I expect McGregor to get his ass kicked.. while getting very rich is the process. But you never know right?
Hope Conor wins.. I'll be putting a grand on him to win at the bookies.
Can I take your bet? Jesus do you enjoy losing.
There is zero chance McGregor does anything.
Mayweather is one of the best boxers pound for pound in history why would anyone think a relative novice could touch him?
I guess the consumer is that stupid.
yeah, the best boxers in the world can barely land a single clean punch on Floyd
i bet McGregor will quickly find that out too, get frustrated and start trying to fight dirty
thank you.Quote:

You mean McGregor?
No. He means if that was the exact scenario, we have people living in the US who wouldn't even watch the fight and do some mental gymnastics that connects Mayweather fans to the historical significance of Minstrel shows. Sounds like a future HuffPost opinion column.
I meant macgregor but yea what bob said makes sense too.
I think the better fight would be both of them in the MMA cage because boxing is limiting what both men are allowed to do.
Macgregor is probably the tougher and stronger man of the two but Floyd has a better specialization of a particular skill.
Also boxing with bigger gloves limits the KO advantage of macgregor.
Everything is setup for him to fail.
This fight will be a big snoozefest like Mayweather / Pacquiao
they should be able to bite each other to keep things interesting
It's estimated mayweather will get 400 million and Macgregor 127.
Image my post not repeating the word style for no reason, pussy.
Conot should stick to UFC, but I will say this if Conor was to some how get the upset it would be the biggest upset in boxing history, and it would make every boxer Floyd has beat, and boxing in general look bad. With that being written I don't give him much of a chance, and expect Floyd to whip his ass bad.
it'll probably be even more boring than the pacquiao fight, both of them are counter punchersQuote:

mayweather is furious at the bieber for unfollowing him on instagram
all that money cant fill the void in his heart left by justin biebs. unfortunate
Ghost on team McGregor.Quote:

To wake up at 5:30 am or not.. I think it will be worth it.
People have already discovered ads on craigslist a couple weeks back from those LA based talent agencies who recruit "protesters" with the intent of creating racially and politically charged scenarios in public spaces. So if something does go down outside the venue, it was probably planned and heavily funded. They have been bussing these people in since Occupy Wallstreet and long before that.
^^between line standers and mercenary protesters how can CharlesJones still not get a job?
the fight is gonna be on some fake ballet shit. Mayweather can probably knock out McGregor in the first or second round, but he's gonna ease off. Everyone who is getting money off this wants the viewers to see a fight that lasts a good while so nobody feels cheated out
I ain't watching.
the arena bowl championship game is on tonight, they should have postponed this fight
Anyone got a stream?
someone pointed their camera at the tv LOL. It's way more reliable than anything else.

Probably fair the fight was stopped. McGregor wouldn't go down but he was tired and taking hella shots.
lol that was fucking boring i can't believe anyone would pay $100 for it
They won't be able to keep the price that high for much longer. Millennials can't even afford an Ironman sized meal at applebees.
McGregor put up a better fight than I had expected
ghetto tactics haQuote:

It was basically a sparring partner for Floyd. You can barely call this a real boxing match. I know MacGregor gave a good showing but this was actually more of an accomplishment for him than Floyd.
Mayweather has a lot of legit contenders but he doesn't want none of them. Probably better for him cuz they would be close fights.
I like Floyd matches because he fights with his head but this one was way too transparent and lame. MCGregor was done after 3 rounds and was tired to the point that u thought they drugged him. MMA is a fake ass pass time based on roids and meth anyways.
I don't even think it was a good showing. Dudes chin was on 98% of the fight and when it wasn't Floyd could still punch through his gloves. He fell for every trick Floyd had, even worst than pacquiao.
I'm more of a boxing fan but boxing is probably more corrupt than the MMA.
This fight just proves that hype sells PPVs more than the actual talent of the fighters because this was basically a sparring session for Mayweather, as expected, I don't think anyone who knows boxing would have thought it would be anything different.
Mayweather vs. The winner of GGG/Canelo is the fight.
But Mayweather won't risk it.
