U cant

Stop it. Those were not his hardest punches. Imo, he needs to train with an actual boxing trainer and learn how to throw real punches amd incorporate that into his ufc gm
Yes you can, fighters can even bet on winning by knockout, like BHop did against Tito.
Winky Wright bet on himself to beat Trinidad.
Boxers bet on themselves all the time, only time there is an issue is if you bet against yourself.

My comment about 154 was specifically to address your contention that Floyd could compete at 154, he can't and he never really has been able to compete at the top level of 154. So if you paid attention you would see I talked about 154 and 147.

My point isn't about him calling them out, its simply about him never fighting the top fighters at 154. Simple as that.

He can't compete with the best at 154, and he would have difficulty competting with the best at 147 due to youth and the skill level and his faded atheleticism and physicality.

If you are arguing with me you are arguing against what Floyd said himself, so either accept the truth or move on, no need crying to me about it.

I don't base anything off the fight last night, simply the age and time factor, he was declining in the Maidana fights and he was slower than I ever seen in the Berto fight, he hasn't gotten better since then and the division has improved talent wise.


Floyd just looking for easy checks Berto and McGregor are as C/D level as it gets he not fighting any A/B guys anymore he's knows he ain't the same fighter hopefully he stay away for good I don't wanna see him get slumped by these young lions

I would say the amount of people in this thread who literally have no idea how Floyd sonned McGregor in this fight
Fight was worth the watch

Connor to me could have kept goin the stop was too early

Now if that's boxing rules so be it but to me Floyd was landing punches but he wasn't gonna knock him out

It was Conner exhausted more than Floyd actually doing damage

But that's part of it can you make it 12 ends

:_charles:

Connor with hands down and no clinching. Half a round left, Floyd was just a few punches away from knocking him down. :_banks:

I don't agree with or respect your opinion. Don't quote me anymore.

Conor really won. Breh is happy as fukk. Got a pay day he didn't earn. Probably the least amount of damage he's ever recieved in a fight. Dude is partying smh
I don't know about that. He was blowing snot, noodle legs, and you could see his face swelling up quick the minute Floyd started throwing punches. He felt that shyt but it's easy to forget the pain when you just cashed out.

Yes. I think Floyd is a GOAT.

But why can't we respect both fighters?


I respect Conor as a fighter and for the fact he is a warrior. He loses and gets back up and keeps popping shyt and he never loses character.

But he never had a chance. And he's not even top 3 in UFC P4P and has never defended his belt. He's a great white hype. He's a great fighter but his "legendary" status is extremely premature is mostly due to peoples love with his personality other than his actual accomplishments. He was gifted 2 belts for marketing purposes. The whole point of being a champ fighter is to defend your belt and until Conor does that I can't just hop in his wagon. IMO he just has more work to do in the octagon to deserve his mega hype train. The thing about Floyd is all his hype/money/shyt talking has been backed up 100%. People talking about Conor like he should retire thats BS.....financially yes he could retire but you can't tell me he can retire today and fighter legacy is complete. He has work to do in the UFC, period.

Let's say he goes back to UFC though and successfully defends both belts....I'll be like :whoo::salute:

He got a black eye. Look at him after his UFC fights. Other than like the one punch knockout ones he's taking more damage
