That was a pretty pathetic reply from the UFC bloke. Ruined legacy? Poor PPV sales? The fuck's he waffling about.
Is Floyd a thicko? Yes. That doesn't mean he's not an all-time great and the biggest PPV star ever. Bit rich coming from someone that apparently gets paid peanuts (relative) operating in a business based on PPV sales.
It is a great reply. Floyd v Pac, 5 years past their prime boring viewers in the most anticipated fight of our generation is the legacy Floyd leaves.Quote:

Floyd is just bored.
They're both talking talking BS. If Floyd is going to go on a rant and start naming names he better expect some of those names to rant right back. Don't forget all these fighters have egos the size of an elephant. I'm starting to enjoy the thread now.Quote:

Actually the McGregor reply turned out to be a fake. Just some guy trolling floyd. ;D.
Apparently all the white fighters are getting free publicity too...:eek: They don't even have to pen their own replies... It's an OUTRAGE!!!!!
Good thing floyd cleared that up by telling us he wasn't racist though... hate for there to be any misunderstandings.

Someone as dumb as Floyd is doesn't have an opinion on these types of things.
When you're 40 and you cannot read, you merely have thoughts.
Those thoughts shouldn't ever leave his mouth.
OK.. well you and the thick UFC bloke (if it even was him) can judge Floyd on one fight, i'll take his entire 20-year career.Quote:

Apart from the difference in how it effects your body (much more likely to suffer career ending injuries in MMA), MMA fighters generally have harder fights earlier in their career and rarely have 10-15 fights at the start of their careers against guys that are there to lose.Quote:

Floyd started this argument with bullshit about racism. Yes racism exists in boxing, but the hate towards Floyd has nothing to do with his race. McGregors popularity is pretty mixed in Ireland. But if he beat his girlfriend and acted like a dick with his money throwing it away with loads of hookers around him hed be hated too.
Floyd was a terrific fighter but was rarely in what the casual fans would call a great fight. With that, its pretty remarkable he managed to pull these PPV numbers, and wonder would these numbers have been as good if he wasnt American? and further to that does anyone think they would have been better if he wasnt a black american?
It's all well and good saying you can't compare MMA careers to Boxers, but if he wants to send out letters to Floyd to garner Publicity , then he's setting himself up for that. I have to say that MacGregor's letter was written quite wittily , but who is he trying to kid?
it's not just him and/or MMA fighters, but why the fuck do they have to use Floyd and ride on the back of his dick to raise their profile?
Whether it be MacGregor, Rousey, DLH(Canelo), Pac, Khan, Lara, Andrade, GGG or anyone else, Forget Floyd , He's retired, make your own Legacy.
ps. Floyd's racism comment was THE most pathetic thing I've ever heard in my life tbf. Ward wasn't dropped in the P4P's because he's Black, he was dropped because he's semi-retired ffs!
Well Floyd attacked him publicly first saying people like McGregor and not him because McGregor is white. I think its perfectly fair for McGregor to reply publicly.
On another note McGregor does back up his talk. The amount of times Floyd says he will KO someone and then not even try for the KO.
Mayweather the guy who was yelling 'slave contracts' when offered millions years ago eh? Someone should give him a book on racism or slavery. Maybe do him a solid and read it to him as well??? Some Japanese guy ranked at 9 :o. FFS.
yeah, but who's more Daft? Floyd for saying he's gonna knock out X, Y or Z, or anyone who actually believes it?Quote:

The only reason the fight was disappointing was because Manny was Crap on the night, and if it had happened 5 years earlier , Floyd would have won easier!
Its about winning with as little damage as possible, why does Floyd have to be exciting and take punches to please everyone?
