If a very average fighter like Nate, can take Conor's best shots... Why would a legendary boxer such as Mayweather have any issues!? (Assuming Conor can actually land anything of substance - Nate is much easier to hit)
Yeah, Nate could take his best shots! LMAO :pac:
Man you don't half talk some shite. Had it been a boxing bout, no bjj, Nate would have been TKO'd in a heartbeart. He clearly could not take Conor's shots ffs, and had to go to ground to recoup on his fcuking arse, multiple times.But it is a different sport... and they are specialists when it comes to punching... Both delivering, evading and also enduring punches... It's all they do! So it would just be common sense to suggest, that they are the best in this respect!
But some of you guys just prefer to ignore, or disregard logic... Because you want to delude yourselves into believing the Conor McGregor hype machine!
Why is it "sneering" for people to point out fairly obvious logical common sense things!?
Pay attention please: We were talking about punch power and while it's true than on average, boxers punch harder than mma fighters, that still doesn't mean that for certain we know that McGregor therefore can't possibly punch harder than some of the boxers Floyd has faced. We simply do not have a sufficient barometer thus far to make such a claim, nobody does and for anyone to claim they know he doesn't, and base their reasoning on the mere fact that boxing is a different sport and McGregor's an mma fighter......very much is sneering.He is very unlikely to hit Floyd clean... because he simply doesn't have the boxing ability to do it... so there is a very good chance, that we will never even get the opportunity to see what kind of damage his best punch can do!
Absolutely, which is why I think McGregor only has a very slim chance of winning this fight. The penny will drop with you eventually... or perhaps not.Secondly, Floyd is a very different animal to the guys that Conor has finished in the UFC... If he couldn't KO Nate...
Nate would have been TKO'd had that second fight been a boxing bout. Only a naive fool would think differently.And also Paulie got hit flush (not on the headgear), but didn't get KO'd either... So how is he going to KO Floyd...??
Who the fcuk is getting knocked out with 16 oz gloves ffs?Floyd has been hit hard in boxing ring... but nobody has even managed to knock him down, and you think a novice boxer making his pro debut, could be the one to KO him??? lol
Eh, where have I ever said that McGregor could KO Floyd??
Here, use this as your avatar, as without question, you are the king of the strawmen:
Most of us already know... and that's not being arrogant, or dismissing the UFC... It's just common sense logic.
If Floyd fights anywhere remotely close to his potential... Conor is pretty much guaranteed to lose! He has zero control over the outcome of this match... It's all about Floyd.
Okay, well, if you truly believe you "know" then I'll look forward to seeing you post up your hefty bet receipts and if I don't see some from you, then that'll just be proof positive for me that you're all mouth and no trousers, as I expect.0 -

"Boxing is checkers, MMA is chess" is the overview, and boxers are bullies according to Paddy.

I like Paddy but he's talkin complete bollix here - He's goin to look very foolish come next Sunday. Im a fan of both sports but boxing has always been no.1 for me, Ive seen it time and again when MMA lads come into boxing clubs wanting to spar straight away and they get hurt with big shots 9 times out of 10. Most of them have no defence, no head movement, arent used to taking shots from proper punchers and throwing big looping shots and arm punches.
No need to disrespect boxing, same way Boxers shouldnt disrespect MMA, both are tough sports but talking ****e about one or the other just makes you look like a dickhead.
The best analogy for this fight Ive heard is like the Patriots trying to beat the All Blacks in rugby. Both teams are tough as nails but they wouldnt have a hope of beating them at their own game.0 -
