In this he should honestly end the fight within 3 rounds, 4 at the most but it is never guaranteed with Floyd that he won't simply coast. He does not give two ****s what people think of him either so putting on a show for the fans will not be high on his list of priorities. He isn't a killer of a fighter either like a GGG and his mantra of composure, patience, wait for right time etcall leads you to believe he might draw this out Make no mistake though if he can't/doesn't bother getting McGregor out of there even at 40/41 it is a failure on his part. If he really wanted to I would bet good money he would end it in round 1, but he will likely go safety first and figure McGregor out in the early exchanges.

Gamebred wrote: » Yeah its happening for no other reason than a cash grab, for all involved, ive accepted it for what it is and hope Conor doesnt retire with the money he makes from this and we lose him from mma, I wont see the fight as ill be abroad but will find a replay when im home to watch it incase your wondering am I buying it.

Gamebred wrote: » Hard to tell, the word from the coaches are promising as in what will he do with himself all day if hes not got a goal or training camp planned, nobody knows till they get that cheque handed to them 100m dollars on top of the 25 he has now and all his assets, he will make the ufc bend over if he does return thats for sure, Only upside of a complete whooping from Floyd is Conors ego wouldnt allow him to retire like that.

I take it thats why they bought in a ref they are going to fight to the very edge of the rules. But thats just my opinion
