    He's clearly running the "belittle and embarrass your new born baby's mother at every possible opportunity and make her a laughing stock" game also, in fact he's got that one sewn up

    No wonder he got touchy when someone asked him about marrying Dee. He's more worried about looking after himself than her or Jr.

    The 140 mill figure for mayweather fight must be BS,he’d surely be able to afford better looking hookers than that with that kind of cash

    Well the hookers are cheaper than getting random slags up the duff.
    Must have got a groupon discount on those escorts - 10 for the price of 6?

    Conor getting knocked out again.

    Conor Vs Paulie would mean he's getting knocked out again.

    Conor Vs Whoever is currently Leinster champion at 154 means he's getting knocked out again.

    Turned out fairly ok. The most sold ppv of all time world wide, allegedly

    He lost though didn’t he, he was beaten. One fight one loss.

    Fight in UFC and get 10mill tops, or fight Manny and get 50mill, he loves his money so Manny it is

    If he can hang for 10 rounds with Floyd there isn’t a hope Paulie would knock him out. People up Floyd for being pillow fisted, but Paullie couldn’t knock out actual bums when he was coming up. Good boxing brain, but the softest puncher in the game.

    I dont think Manny would carry him just to make it look competitive. I think Manny will want to make a point and will go for/get an early knock out. Manny in 3 :cool:

    Pac man is tiny, only 5'5.5" or so, and has a much smaller reach than Floyd and McGregor, only 67", he'll also be 39 years old if they do fight when the rumour says they will, and he has much more mileage on his clock with 68 pro fights.

    It'd much more of a freak show than the Mayweather one that's for sure but much less of a money maker.

    What's going on? Are people here really considering how a fight between Conor and another boxer would go?

    The first was a pointless novelty sh1tshow. Any other boxing matches involving Conor would be a pointless non-novelty sh1tshow.

    He has to fight Ferguson next. Or he can take a break for however long he wants and come back in his own time, and see what challenger makes sense then.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,139 ✭✭✭sonofenoch


    If the Manny thing is correct it's a sad way for his career to go......a kind of Rocky figure but not a very good one, he's just not a boxer not in the 'boxing' sense.......what after that? Tyson Fury? WWE? ........between that and the trolling of the media and gullibles on here with the fake gangster schtick .......all a bit pathetic, could have been so much more


    or maybe he'll fight in the UFC again near future

    He definitely took that uppercut in the second on purpose too

    And smiled and walked forward?

    He did carry him to an extent. He was never in danger at all, put the foot down during round 8, I believe he tried to end it in 9, didn't (Conor does have a hard head) and ended it in 10.

    With Pac man he might last a few rounds also, Pac is not a big punched and not near the fighter he was. Still wins via stoppage.

    I'd like to see him fight canelo in a boxing match or perhaps GGG. I'd give long odds to anyone here on him seeing the 3rd round

    A nice quick decapitation so he finally understands he isnt a boxer and goes and does what he is good at again.

    He's done fighting, has no hunger anymore. I presume dee is gone too so that will send him off the rails for a bit. I feel sorry for him tbh. All the money and fame, no hunger to fight anymore, the misses and kid gone and no REAL friends around him. It must be lonely in the spotlight like that.

    I think it's less about the idea he thinks he's a boxer and more about the paychecks he gets playing one.

    Sure, he has a lot of self belief, but if the money was the same in both fields, he'd stay in his lane.

    Like most, this idea does nothing for me. I have no interest in seeing him box.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,795 ✭✭✭dulux99


    Lads for those of you really debating the Pacquaio news in detail, read the story. It's nothing, fake news type story. Manny passed a vague comment and websites are adding arms and legs onto it. There's nothing in his comments.

    If it was an MMA fight Conor would win way easier then PAC would against Conor in a boxing match...... Carl Frampton would knock out Conor in a straight up boxing match, never mind Manny

    And being a **** father. U left out that bit

    He flew out to London on Monday and according to instagram stories, the lads were all flying home in bits about an hour ago.

    A 5-day-bender in London with drug dealers when you've got a 7-month-old baby sitting at home coming up to his first xmas isn't good. I'm reminded of the 4-day-bender with drug dealers in Liverpool he had this year when Dee was heavily pregnant and a fortnight away from giving birth.

    It was actually quite sad that Dee felt the need to post up a photo of a smiling baby while Conor was away carrying on with Rita Ora, dealers, strippers and hookers.

    He can throw all the swanky christenings and lavish parties he wants for that child to create the illusion he cares but ultimately all a baby of that age wants is time and attention.

    I have to wonder are the parties actually for Conor Jr. or are they just another excuse to be center of attention.

    Dan Hardy had it right.

    Fully off the rails now in fairness.

    Sad to see.


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,405 ✭✭✭Lukker-


    I don't think he was ever on the rails, just everybody seems to be tracking him a good deal more now


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,761 ✭✭✭Effects


    If it was an MMA fight Conor would win way easier then PAC would against Conor in a boxing match

    And if Conor played Tiger Woods in golf, Tiger would beat him way easier than Conor would beat Tiger in an MMA fight.

    I can't believe we are back to this crap.

    Mayweather carried him for most of their fight, to make a show, so people wouldn't feel conned. People were conned. By two men who only cared about making money, and that's it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,464 ✭✭✭Ultimate Seduction


    But not in actuality.

    He's done as far as fighting is concerned. His new focus is being a "don" and supplying his Klingon warriors with snow until he's broke or dead.

    You sure? He could fight Diaz on the 219 card...

    people don't really change much, you realise that as you go on in life.
    for those saying money corrupts - I wouldn't fully agree - it gives the inner-arsehole more scope to express itself.
    Plenty of people have made money and keep it together.

    Balotelli setting fireworks off in bathroom type news really, give it this much attention and it continues to be relevant stop and Conor will be in the Nice equivalent of MMA in no time.
