    They have a boxing ring set up in the middle of Wembley Arena. Interesting to see how this one will go down

    Does being poor give you that?

    Like I said, money has nothing to with style and class..rich or not rich, poor or not poor, comfortable or not comfortable...nothing to do with it.

    You either have it or you don't.

    Leonard Ellerbe gave his fight prediction to ITV. Mayweather by KO.

    I Agree.

    The language is very mysogynistic but you'd expect that from a woman beater

    What metric you use to decide style and class.
    Use examples.

    Roger Federer would be an example of a sports star with both

    Actions and words.

    I have seen and heard plenty of it from McGregor to say he lacks plenty of class.

    No doubt this will make little or no difference to the level of support he will have in this country on fight night and that's the staggering aspect of it all.

    I Agree. Conor won't land a punch. He will be knocked out inside 3 rounds

    Humility, humbleness wouldn't do Conor McGregor any good. His attitude is part of his arsenal. It's uncontrolled and unpredictable. I think I only find it really cringey because it's done in a Dublin accent, though. He constantly sounds like he's being thrown out of a club by the bouncers. But I like to watch him fight.

    No it's not,I may be ignorant on my opinion, asking a question that may change my mind is not a waste of time.

    I have given examples up thread with Diaz, Aldo, Siver, bringing the names of dos Anjos' children into a press conference to taunt him, referring to people who died making his diamond watch, calling an interviewer a burns victim while thinking he was off air and so on. Fights can be promoted without insulting people's backgrounds.

    And then we have this weeks press conferences on top of all that.

    It's a culmination of it.

    It's embarrassing and I don't find it funny in the slightest.

    Its gas the people that are berating McGregor's antics but would eulogize about Muhammad Ali out the other side of their mouth at the same time

    The only time Ali crossed the line was when belittled Joe Frazier- something he apologised for and was forgiven.

    He was also a wife-beater but it wasn't as condemned then as it (rightfully) is now.

    When did McGregor cross the line?

    Was he? I know Frasier was resentful until late in life, didn't hear he forgave Ali. Not in any real sense anyways.

    Yes. Before Ali died, Frasier forgave him

    This wife beater accusation about Ali..I assume you have a verifiable and reliable source, or some real evidence?
