What is with all these youtube channels predicting how conor will win based off body language? This shyt is laughable. Conor has got all these self help dikkheads brining their bullshyt into boxing. Embarrassing





:laff:

Conor mcgregor is like the film fight club all over again for white men. "I'm a lame so I will pretend to be this person who is better..."


there's one thing about this fight that annoys me...ppl who dont know shyt about boxing writing and/or talking about it in relation to this card...horrible articles/videos galore..and you know they dont when they cant even acknowledge or talk about who is on the undercard...which i also have seen little of other than maybe a mention of tank here and there

Just watched the weigh in video (because screw following this sham fight intently)...what the hell was Conor thinking with his weight cut? What has he been doing since November (when he made 155 relatively easily against Eddie Alvarez)? Compared to Floyd, who looked amazing and unburdened at 149, Conor looked like a concentration camp victim.

Beyond the fun and games and bullshyt, this is legitimately worrying for Conor because, beyond losing, the guy's in danger of being seriously brain damaged in this match. Not saying that it will happen, but there's a big difference between boxing in MMA and boxing in Boxing (I just had to school my ex on this yesterday, since she couldn't comprehend why I said that the fight will go exactly as long as Floyd wants it to and will end in the manner Floyd wants it to) and a huge chunk of that difference concerns how you're getting punched in the head at any given moment. Beyond even that kind of danger, there's zero chance that Conor will be able to absorb real body work from Floyd, which could also drastically alter his career if it goes long enough.

This is gonna be a shytshow. I'm an MMA fan and all, but Floyd's gonna hurt this man if everything is on the level (in fact, I predicted that Floyd will make him quit on his stool, or at least try to make him do so).

Edit: Just checked the r/MMA thread on the fight. It's amazing how little they know about...anything, really. Like, I just saw someone make the comment "McGregor looked like a fukking animal at that weigh-in. Mayweather looked like he was there just for that payday." seriously. fukking laughable. :mjlol:
Lock them in a room in a fight to the death, Mac is comin out of that room. I do agree this fight should never have been sanctioned. Conor is basically paralyzed in there. Or handicapped. He's out of his element. No way a boxing ref is going to give McGregor the leeway to continue thru punishment. Gatti's corner had to stop the fight, I think the ref will be quick to stop this.

Why would anyone shift things to help Conor when he already has
Age,size,strength, more comfortable weight class etc?

Casual fans dont know that Conor is actually a defensive fighter.

He knocked Jose Aldo out going backwards.

Still hope he comes out an aghressor so we get a couple cool rounds

This is what concerns me. Conor will never be the same after this fight imo. Especially if it goes like people expect. U don't just bounce back from a beating. Paulie said he's going to be assaulted :damn:

He'll bounce back, his price goes up regardless...He gonna walk back into UFC with more leverage to demand/make more money than he ever has.

If he gets dominated and embarrassed, his stock drops. His leverage reduces. My conspiracy theory is this is what the ufc wants. Him to get embarrassed and they can build him back up. Nobody will pay to see him box again if he gets KO'd or TKOd or just outclassed for 12 rnds. He has to look competent and competitive, which will be damn near impossible vs Floyd. Van Heerden toyed wit him :damn:

Would you also say that if Mac we're locked in a room with an elite boxer that walked around at 170lbs?

I disagree at the end of the day its a mismatch, the majority believe Mcgregor has no chance of the winning. If he loses its not surprising, his stock wont drop that much

For me Mcgregors won already, win or lose due to the biggest payout of his career and the opportunities hes opened up for himself by being involved in this fukkery.

I respect his hustle get my money:yeshrug:

Haven't thought about it, we just talkin Floyd right now.

On another note, I just read about Roger Mayweather. Dude got dementia now. Sr seems like he's getting a lil worse as well. Its depressing as fukk to see strong people become ill. That transformation is just depressing.

Does Sr have diabetes too? Floyd's mens health interview said he did, but I never heard Sr say he had it. I wonder if weight cuts amd eating loads of calories to train fukks with the pancreas amd causes diabetes :jbhmm:
