Mayweather vs McGregor official

[Batman]

I've got no interest in the fight, I'll order it if it has a good undercard and a few fights I don't want to miss but if it is nobodies I've never heard of I won't be buying it just to watch the main event.

ive read in places people slagging "boxing purists" for slagging this fight

ive seen mcgreggor spar, fair enough just one video, but from that I don't think he would make it to championship level

might get a bit of luck and fight for and maybe win a irish or commonwealth title

only way mcgreggor can make it an interesting fight if he just goes for it big time, a few rounds of windmills till he gets caught

at least that would be funny

[erics44]

mcgreggor hasn't even got any size advantage

[Gandalf]

Something weird is going on in here.

The betting odds are utterly ridiculous.

Floyd is 1/7 with Paddy Power. For some perspective - that is virtually the same price as Eubank jr to beat Abraham or Zeuge to beat Smith or for an even more nuts comparison Joshua is 1/25 to beat Parker!!!

A fella making his boxing debut has the same chance of beating Floyd as proven world champions do of upsetting their next opponents. What?

[Ron Swanson]

The reaction is interesting. Experts "Connor won't win but I want to see what happens", but I'm just amazed at MMA fans because they have no clue. They have no idea how much better boxers are with their hands. "He's been training boxing for years", so has my fiancé but that doesn't mean she can f'n box.

Joke of a fight, but what else would you expect from Mayweather? It's all sizzle no steak, this is 100% about the build up for all the fucking idiot fans of trash talk


May as well just watch some old school pro wrestling, at least that is entertaining

[Fenster]

I don't know shit about this UFC lark but i'm gathering this chop suey's punching power is frightening? I'm pretty sure Floyd's sparko percentage would be a little higher if he fought in those knuckle dusters.

I would love it if McGregor does go wild on Floyd, just love it.

It will be fun watching Floyd justifying this fight, saying the world demanded it and it is what fight fans wanted.

[Mark TKO]

That's his only chance so bring it.

Fuck it I'll be paying for this one

Speaking last month, boxing legend Oscar de la Hoya said the contest was "a farce" and "a circus" and feared the impact it would have on the sport.

"My interest is in the health of boxing as a whole," said De la Hoya, who won world titles in six different weight categories, in an open letter posted on Facebook.

"Floyd's and Conor's motivation is clear. It's money. In fact, they don't even pretend it's not.

"When the fight ends up being the disaster that is predicted, afterwards neither of them will need [boxing] any more. Floyd will go back to retirement and Conor will go back to the UFC. It's a win-win for them. It's a lose-lose for us.

"If you thought Mayweather/Pacquiao was a black eye for our sport - a match-up between two of the best pound-for-pound fighters that simply didn't deliver - just wait until the best boxer of a generation dismantles someone who has never boxed competitively at any level - amateur or professional.

"Our sport might not ever recover."
