I'd be thinking that McGregor will change his whole training regime to be more fitness longevity.

I do think Mayweather as this is his forte.

Hopefully its a better bout than the Pacquiao v Mayweather "Match of the Century"

No way the boxing federation allows an MMA fighter to win.

So unless McGregor knocks him out ( highly unlikely ) then this is easily mayweathers fight and a pure cash grab by both fighters.

MadDocker

Mayweather should do it easy. Connor a punches chance though, if he lands some (big if) they can potentially finish it

As soon as it turns into McGregor chasing Mayweather around the ring it's all over. Needs to be extremely patient, see out the early rounds and attack on the counter to be any chance.

Yep cant see ,mayweather losing! They both made it a hype train, pretty hard to turn down $100 mill.

I just hope for macgregors sake that he doesnt auto pilot and head kick the fuck out of floyd when he does the little cheeky lean out of the way to the side! Im guessing if he does he wont get paid for the fight?

Id be tying my ankles together or something with rubber bands.

Floyd/Pacman had a 60/40 split in revenue...curious as to what this deal looks like for both parties (with UFC taking a cut of Conors as he is under a 100 million contract with them already?)

100 million doesn't include PPV sales...Floyd/Pacman was 4.6 million buys and over $410 million in revenue

mate sent me a screen shot of ticket prices - Floor A Rear (Row D) x 2 = $84,961

shaping up to truly be a billion dollar fight - the hype train better leave the station soon, i wanna hear them both talk shit - most of all, bring on 24/7 & Embeded programs!!

Conor would whoop Floyds arse in a true no bullshit fight.
Conor doesn't stand a snow flakes chance in hell of out boxing Floyd.
Conor will get boxed the fuck out of and then have a brain fart and accidentally bring some MMA in to the fight and that will be the end of it.

Both are going to be rolling in cash and laughing all the way to the bank.

There won't be any sudden leg kicks or takedowns from Conor. There is a serious $ penalty if it happens and he won't risk a penny.

Conor is 28, Floyd 40.
Floyd hasn't fought in almost 2 years, and when you retire worth almost half a billion, how much training do you think he's done since then?
Conor applied for a boxing licence in July 2016. That means he's probably been planning and training for this fight for over a year.
Conor is taller, will be heavier when the bell rings, and has a greater reach.
Everyone talks up Floyd's defence, and how exceptional his counter punch is. I'd argue McGregor's counter is superior.

Every time someone says Conor can't do something he does it. If their game plan is something other than "charge and throw punches" I'd say Conor has a chance.

Money on Floyd because it's in his house with his rules.

Experience goes a long way. Boxing and MMA two different things.

I don't think that video went into the technical parts of boxing where Mayweather has a lot of experience.

Personally I'd like to see Mayweather win. For two reasons. One being the age gap. Two, I think the other bloke is a total cock.

To me it's a business deal only and a lucrative one at that.
It's a win win for both of them, Mayweather and Conor are probably on facetime laughing their way to the bank right now.

Conor's not a boxer, he know's he has no chance but in reality he has nothing to lose.

It's all part of his master plan: https://themaclife.com/featured-posts/john-kavanagh-conor-done-sport-will-disappear/

He has enough power, speed and accuracy to be a slim chance at a KO win. Only takes 1 good punch to the chin over the 36mins to end it.

Was going comment about this, nate diaz outboxed the shit out of Mcgregor and Diaz isnt a world champ 50-0 fighter. I would love to see Mcgregor knocks Mayweather out but cant see it. Mcgregor took diaz legs apart in the scond fight? which was the main reason he won that fight (that and diaz has no brain to rattle) Yeah, from memory Mcgregor was ruined by 4th round and diaz kept going? Mayweather would put a shit ton more punches out and move a shit ton more than Diaz i imagine.

Love to be proved wrong but cant see it. Would have to be one of the biggest sporting upsets in history.

many boxers, who have trained boxing since they were children, have tried and failed. He is bigger, younger, longer and has KO power when wearing a MMA glove..10 ounce gloves, not quite so sure he can have that same touch of death.

I think the question is will McGregor actually hit Floyd at all?

I didn't think it would be a points win for MacGregor if he was to win at all.

Wonder if he'll get pinged for any accidental MMA or if he'll go rogue. I guess for that payday to occur though he'll have to ensure he very much stays within all rules.

Win/lose he gets paid I suppose.

I agree that the odds are slim, but, McGoater not being a typical boxer that has spent his life boxing could also work partly in his favor. He doesn't stand the same, he doesn't move the same, the doesn't punch the same. It only takes 1 well placed or lucky strike to end it all. He's got a chance and I'd love to see it happen.

Worst part, I'm out bush for this and won't hear anything about it until early September. Absolutely spewing already.

This ^

Floyd is expecting a boxer, with a boxer's movement and style. One of the most unique things about Conor is his movement. Imagine how much more effective Conor is going to be only evading fists, not having to worry about takedowns or feet. I won't be surprised for a second if McGregor gets him.

Lost all interest in Floyd's trash talking when he said he would win in the octagon and would use 4 ounce gloves. Nigga please.

Please, take a seat.
If Nate can box the shit out of him then someone who's an actual boxer might do it no worries.
Even Conors ex boxing coach came out and said he was fucking shit.
No matter what fight it is, it always can end with one well placed shot, McGregors not any more special by having that chance.
If he doesn't get that lucky shot early, he will be punished every round

Pretty much this fight is all business, how I see it is Mayweather didn't want the fight at the start, Dana calls his boys up
"Look Mayweather, all you need to do is step in the ring and hit Conor a few times, Conor will lose, you both get 100Mill Min, What you say?"

Mayweather can't take a lost as of his record, Conor can take a lost and doesn't give a shit, Conor is a smart businessman.

If they wanted a real fight, it should be "Who ever wins the fight gets the 100% of money and the loser gets a pat on the back for trying". That way you'll deff see both putting in effort.

Look at when Danny Green fought Paul Briggs.

This has worked for me on other Paid UFC Events... ioS devices - www.tweakboxapp.com...install that (go through Safari) then in the yellow category there is a download for UFC++ which is obviouslly cracked..
Same app has Spotify++ (premium) and Moviebox (if you haven't seen this, search it in YT, easily best app for movies) the only issue with this app is that every few weeks apple revoke their license and you have to redownload the apps.

Mayweather said he'll be going in and that's what he did
Absolutely dominated him

You can’t learn years of boxing experience ina few months. Good effort taking the fight to him though.

Mayweather will run circles around McGregor. He has absolutely no chance.
Remember the Nate Diaz fight he lost? He was knackered by the 3rd round.

I'm betting K.O by 3rd.

I think Floyd let this go the distance on purpose. Probably put a cheeky bet on for 10th round win!

Fight lived up to the hype. Floyd's experience shined through, and Conor's biggest weakness is still his gas tank.

2 judges gave Floyd 2 of the first 3 rounds. Crazy!

I reckon Floyd lost the first three, and the forth was debatable. After that, Mayweather blistered the spud!

Surely Conors trainers knew he would try and draw out the fight so why not try and condition him more? Or is Conor already at his limit in terms of endurance?

I knew he was in trouble when I think it was end of the 2nd, Mayweather was just relaxing in his corner and Conor was covered in ice.

His cardio issues were exposed as far back as the Mendes fight. He's a maniac with his training, even bringing in a cardiovascular specialist to try and change his physiology for this fight. Despite his crazy training he has seen little improvements since Mendes, and the experts behind his FAST program suggest it could be a genetic limitation.

I think his strategy today had to be about a quick KO. I don't think him or his team believed he would keep up with Floyd's pace and knew it was only a matter of time before he gassed. Owen Roddy kept telling him to tie Floyd up to give himself a chance to recover, but he would get out there and start throwing punches. He landed something like 42 punches in 3 rounds, and 111 punches in total. Insane when you consider Pacquiao only landed 81 his entire fight. Floyd always gives up the first rounds in his fights and I don't think he expected Conor to land as many as he did, and he was cooked.

His next opponent in the octagon could be Tony Ferguson who has Floyd like cardio. If they don't get it sorted he could lose his belt.

Edit: punches

For anyone struggling to find reliable stream sources, I had no issues finding this on Twitch.tv in the IRL "Gaming" section
