Official Conor McGregor thread (part 3) *Updated Warning in 1st Post Re:Boxing match
The last thread was nearing the 10k post limit so here's part 4.

The same rules as the last thread apply here. People seem to have strong opinions either way when it comes to McGregor and threads here tend to get a bit heated from time to time. Please keep it civil and discuss all things Conor in a mature way.

Any name-calling, trolling, baiting, or being a general ass-hat will earn you a ban from the thread and possibly the forum.
If you have an issue with a post, please use the report post function.

Any off topic posts will be deleted.
Any "Do you even train Bro?" or "I'm an mma fan longer than you" type posts are not permitted either. They only make you look like a fool and as a result, everyone hates you. Yes everyone.

**Upate with Mayweather vs McGregor announced**

Lads consider this the one and only warning - big fight with a lot of hype around it. It brings new fans to the forum as well as the regulars so try and get along. Any trolling or nonsense and people will find themselves on a break from the forum and that applies to everyone.

I'm intrigued now to know a) why Conor didn't mention Floyds domestic violence past?
b) what Floyd tried to bring up during the face to face?
c)what was in Floyd's back pack that he couldn't get?

This is a ridiculous statement thrown around a lot. Why is did Floyd fight again after the jackpot against pac. Why did Ali keep fighting, fighters will keep on fighting until there body breaks down. Conor will be fighting for the next 7-8 years. Probably more infrequently.

Leo is a legend, I wish he worked at the UFC, he might do when Floyd gets KO'd!!!! ÉIRE MUDDAFUKKAAASS

If there was a fine then even 100k would be excessive, and even at that it's just a drop in the ocean of what's at stake.

I definitely think there is one though. Although surely Floyd would have mentioned it. He did kinda hint at it with all the "I ain't gonna touch you!" comments.

Dana definitely took the wind out of Conor when he sat down though

Outlaw Pete

Ah, karma..... now Floyd will have the PC brigade after him.

The above interview is one of the best he's ever done in terms of genuine stuff.

Q. People were worried you'd retire after this fight, what do you say to that?

A. "I'm just turned 29. I'm fresh. I'm going nowhere for a long, long time.".

Conor strikes me as an impulsive person. He said get in and get out at one stage on his career.

How much do you think he will be fined Wonder?

McGregor has made an enemy out of Showtime, he clearly has breached his contract by touching Mayweather.

Anyone care to guess how much of his purse will be lost? He even tried to apologise for it which was embarrassing.

I think these press conferences cater to the lowest common denominator.

Ali was charismatic and quick, Mcgregors is very serious and has an edge to his comments.

How much will McGregor lose for touching his head?

Not a dime.

I noticed McGregor twice tonight saying that he likes Leornard and was thinking the following comments from last night might be why he went out of his way to do that (even though he did also take the piss out of whatever the hell he was wearing):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y7fG23Mabbw

Contrast that with three or four interviews with Floyd over the past few days were he was more that happy to imply that not only was what Conor said racist, but that he was in fact a racist person.

Stuff like that matters a great deal and not just on with on a personal level but also when it comes to things like sponsorship. No brand wants anything to do with an athlete that's name is attached to anything negative like that for obvious reasons and so I expect Conor appreciates Ellerbe saying what he did.

And don't forget Weasel face!

Aye.... and what makes it even better is that right after last night's presser he said he was running out of patience with McGregor's antics

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s5f9VqAzqSA

When Mayweather asked him to point at the 'Easy work' tonight, did he do it?

As the camera cut away to Dana and McGregor breaking their holes laughing and so wasn't sure what he did in response to that.

johnpatrick81

I really do think he was tempted to stand up, ah that woulda been epic! In fairness I'd let Conor teabag me on live tv if I was getting what Weasal is on this fight!

Him vs. Dana White would do bigger numbers than a Mighty Mouse card.

Ah who am I kidding, Joey Diaz eating a Big Mac in his jocks would even do bigger numbers than a Mighty Mouse card.

He needs to embrace it like dillashaw, from this day forward he IS Showtime Weasel.

Highlights for me were the way McGregor called the Jersey Shore rejects 'juicehead monkeys', slagging May for sounding like a Power Ranger last night and then when Floyd grabbed his and Dana's mics, Conor going and grabbing Floyd's and saying "I'm too quick for you!".

It's time to stop pretending what Conor McGregor says isn't racist"

Back to my other point. Floyd hates gay people then? According to tonight's commentary Conor is a fag.
It's all nonsense but the hypocrisy amuses

My thoughts in general on the fours days.
Lighten the **** up (not aimed at you Zero-cool I mean in general). It's was entertaining.
People will moan about anything and yet the people who give out about this the most are the people who watched it for the last four nights straight.

Same when it comes to the fight.

Enough of **** going on in the world, this makes for a positive distraction.

Sky 493 was watching start on it until they censored

Im in no doubt this thing is a farce now. They couldnt even be arsed to come up with any dirt on each other and more tension in a post office que than the ring, boring, tedious crap.

Who knows, maybe they have the end of this fight pre determined like WWE. I genuinely thing this thing is so staged they wouldnt leave the ending to chance.

Mayweather on points (as per pre arranged agreement methinks)

Overall the whole thing was fairly embarrassing for humanity but that's not unusual these days. Floyd saying 'yeeeah' is the most irritating noise I've heard in a long time.

It wasn't even in the top 3 most embarrassing things this week nevermind humanity. Trump has 2 of those locked up trying to rip the arms off Mr and Mrs. Macron with that lunatic handshake he does :pac:
