    Well if this happens I hope Mayweather wins as I can not stand that other lad. Would not be so bad if he had a decent personality outside of the ring but he does not even have that. All he sees to be able to talk about is his fighting. I don,t envy his wife poor thing having to put up and listen to him.

    All things considered id rather be in her shoes than floyds missus, far better to have a partner that talks about fighting techniques all day than a partner that tests them out on you

    Floyd's got an American passport, he's richer and he's black. Channeling the needs and wants of the thirsty modern woman I'd be picking Floyd all day. The chance he beats me which means extra money in court only sweetens the deal tbh.

    Now excuse me while I shower myself in bleach.

    I'm not sure I understand your point about being American, or black for that matter .
    And it's his money. All any women is getting is a pre-nup and a black eye.

    I have no issue with the pisstakers . just the odd person who genuinely believes this will be competitive makes my brain hurt

    Well, will look forward to seeing you posting your betslip before the fight takes place so..... sure it's buying money at 1/5 or thereabouts, right?

    Mcgregor to land under 50 punches at 4/6 is another nice money maker

    Can't wait for the build up, when are they kicking off.

    Money for nothing. Sure we all agree that McGregor will only land one punch.

    First five seconds, MW rushes out, McG flicks out a jab and catches him on the chin. Lights out. Two hits - McG hitting MW chin and MW hitting the canvas

    As soon as she sorts out the negotiations. People are mistakenly thinking she was referring to Brexit when she was recently talking about negotiations starting soon and that they'd take two years. She was referring to her McG fight. She has the experience but he has youth on his side. Like McG, she is also undefeated in the ring too. Someone's zero has got to go!

    Mayweather has never rushed out, do you have some inside info?? Don't keep it to yourself...

    Ah sure MW has never fought a non-boxer before*. He's going to be crapping himself obviously and will panic and want to be put out of his misery as soon as possible.
    Don't you know how much of an advantage it is to McG to have never boxed professionally before? I mean, it's a pity for him that he had those four amateur fights a long long time ago because they would erode his advantage a little bit. As would practicing and sparring before August. He should stop training. In that way he'll be extremely unconventional come fight night. Definite KO


    *Well apart from giving his ex missus a few digs.

    I'm just waiting for the odds on a FMW KO/TKO/DQ win to creep back towards evens before lumping on at least a month's wages ( I promise to show the bet here before the fight).
    I was just too slow to get the money on when the bookies were offering 6/5 or evens.

    The thing MMA fans don't seem to get is that Floyd is a master on the inside. He loves standing up close to his opponent and duck/dive throw close shots and uppercuts. Connors big long shots will be irreverent as floyd will be right up on his chest and he won't have any room. I have also read that there is a large DQ punishment in the contract so Connor will be reticent to do anything stupid.

    Just watching the Belfast bill tonight and seeing DO Joyce - a pro novice but amateur expert- makes me realise how impossible this fight is for Conor. I am pretty sure that Joyce would hammer McGregor depsite giving away 20+lbs just based on the pure level of skill he showed tonight.

    Floyd's muscle memory alone will beat Mc. I'll enjoy the buildup. Mc will really probably piss MW off.

    Conor doesn't jab much so that's one problem with your scenario...

    I think you'll see come fight night that Conor has been studying Lomachenko. Expect to see plenty of wide-arc entries, exits and pivots (even if he's getting destroyed he'll be trying them.)

    He's on video watching youtube videos of Eubank jr throwing shots and copying the drill, so maybe thats what wonder means he will try copy some shots from the pros,

    Have you no worries about Floyd possibly coasting and showboating? that alone is stopping me going all in on the tko, he could literally embarrass him for the 12 rounds.

    It's a worry but at evens it is worth the risk. Mathematically it should be about 1/4 so if someone is offering evens, as a gambler, you have to take it.

    Reports Floyd is already f*cking lads up in sparring and is not under estimating Conor. Now maybe it's just his guys trying to sell it and hype it up more but Floyd was always a master preparing for fights and if I know Floyd he's been in the gym with months already. The KO price has shortened and I think it probably will continue to do so until Conor opens his mouth and the peasants start throwing their money on him. I got him at evens a few days back. 5/6 is probably the best you'll get him now, saw 8/11 at a few places. Still value in that mind you.

    Floyd has always had an excellent work ethic the say he trains like hes broke.

    Evens on a mayweather KO, assume it doesn't cover TKO ye? I think TKO in the second half is most likely, think there'll be showboating and coasting

    You're dead right. I heard that he has even read Lomachenko's wikipedia page from start to finish five times!!!!
    The sad part is that we won't get to see those moves. I'm telling you man, that first, light, distance finding, jab that's getting flicked out is going to KO Mayweather.
