So the fight has just been confirmed for the 26th August 2017 at the T-Mobile arena!

What are your opinions? Who do you think is going to take the win? ​

 

[PurpleParadise]

Personally i think Connor is in a win win situation, there is no way Mayweather is going to K.O McGregor so it either ends with Connor K.Oing Floyd or he goes 12 rounds against the pound for pound "best boxer" and takes it on points

It's a total joke on a "What would happen if the Globetrotters played the Warriors?" level.

McGregor isn't going to be able to compete against a real boxer, even one who is old and isn't likely to train particularly hard. Like anything else that happens in Vegas, it's designed to relieve suckers of their money.

 

[BotanyBoy]

McGregor is going to get Mayweather on the ground and proceed to skull fuck him.

McGregor is faster, hits harder and taller, that's just the start of it so..

Boxers suck against MMA/BJJ if they can't KO their opponents.

They fall apart once it goes to the ground and then they boo hoo about how it ain't fair the other guy got to ground them before pounding them. "Stand up and fight light a REAL man!!" is what usually comes out of their bloody mouths after the fact.

Mayweather is going to kick his ass. No questions about it.

Is this going to be a boxing match or MMA fight? I havent seen the details of what rules will be used. That I think determines the winner. I can't imagine Connor being able to out box Mayweather and Mayweather would be vastly outmatched if its a MMA brawl.

Boxing, 10-ounce gloves, 154 Pounds

Oh....so it's a homosexual dancing event and not a fight, noted.

If Manny Pacquiao could barely touch Mayweather, I'm guessing McGregor's chances aren't so good (and yes, I know he's got a longer reach than most welterweights).

I can tell you right now what's going to happen: they're going to dick around for 12 rounds, with Mayweather doing just enough to take every round on points. Then both guys will go out for drinks later and laugh their asses off.

I guess that answers my question. I tip my hat to McGregor for having the guts to step out of his sport and into another, but I don't give him much chance to win. He is only going to be allowed to use a fraction of his weapons that he normally relies on. I'm not a Mayweather fan, but I'd be very surprised if he doesn't win

If that's the case, then Mayweather. If it was MMA, then McGregor would win with a submission in the first 30 seconds.

It would be more interesting fight fight if Mayweather fought Ronda Rousy, but with MMA rules.

around $80M - $200M richer sounds like a good night

There will be lots of rules. Mcgregor should ignore every single one of them. Hopefully he can stamp on Mayweather's balls before Mayweather's people realize what's up.

Vegas - So a farce.

Yes, I would like to see the pompous popinjay get fucking humiliated...


What an asshole.

It's a boxing match. As Conner says: I'm in it for the money and if I did any MMA, I would be sued.


He's going to take a dive...


For the money.

OK

I laughed.

She identifies as a man.

On that note, I am a very bad man...

Yea, it would have to be because there is simply no way Mayweather could compete otherwise.


Which brings me to a 2nd point...if everyone expects Mayweather to win wouldn't he be the one that takes a dive for the money?

No doubt.

LOL, now that would be good.

Now you're ripping off a lot of ancient, bad mafia-boxing movies as made tribute to in Pulp Fiction.

 

[PurpleParadise]

sooo it's around $4000 for the worst tier of seating for the event, anyone tempted? haha

Liverpool kiss required.

You're ruining my fantasy. A boxing match! more like a boxing mismatch. But McGregor could still get into a clinch and headbutt Mayweather really hard. He would be disqualified but who would care? - apart from Mayweather.

All Conner wants is a big payday as we walks away from the game...


:shrug:


I think Mayweather last sold over 4 million pay per views for a single event while Conner is mired down at about one and a half, so both teams are hoping the combined number will set a huge record and earn the one last big ass payday.
