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.

Here's the sparring segment from the show......

Obviously we're just seeing stuff which favours McGregor, but still, some nice shots landed all the same.

What impressed me from the added footage is we get to see Conor landing shots from his usual MMA bladed stance. The first left hand illustrates it pretty well, he creams him with it.

Dana was saying Showtime pulled another weasel move and only informed the UFC on Wednesday that they were responsible for finding a singer for Amhran na Bhfiann. Dana wouldn't say who they got but by the big smile on his face when he said "it's a crazy story" I'm thinking it might be Sinead!

Wonder if she's gonna look like the found her in a fcukin bin like she did last time, that was probably one of my favourite comments i ever read on boards

Yeah, the HBO Face to Face interviews are always excellent... don't think Showtime ever do similar though, fighters always seem to be interviewed separately. Don't remember Berto & Porter or Broner & Garcia being interviewed together anyway.

Showtime are pretty useless overall imo. Even their pressers are crap.

HattrickNZ

why don't they have them interviewed together like the Diaz one on the money channel. Has Floyd done that in the past when he was the promoter with Showtime? Maybe he doesn't want to do it with Conor, cos Conor would eat him up! Would deffo get more sells I would think.

Hopefully it'll be uploaded soon enough... but could of sworn there was a new few seconds segment shown.

Yeah there was! The parts where Paulie was wearing his hoodie was new but I was trying to say it was still Conor landing shots

Was interesting to see Volkan Oezdemir say Conor will KO Floyd in the very first round. I mean, I'm aware he's a UFC fighter supporting his own but the way he said it he seemed pretty convinced in his own mind that Conor will walk straight through Floyd. Plus, if anyone should be trusted as an authority on Round 1 KO's it's Volkan :P

ye RB said that there was more footage and he had seen it. And he was working on something special for Dana. This might be it. Be good if it goes up on youtube. I think conor offered it to showtime but they did not want to do anything with it.

Some show on ESPN 2 I'm watching now where they just showed some more of the Paulie sparring... Robin Black is narrating some of it.

Watching it here but I didn't see any sparring I saw more of Conor pinging the head off him :pac:

For anyone who missed it, that was an incredible interview with Chris Eubank.

He literally quoted verbatim from memory the entire poems of 'If' by Rudyard Kipling and a tribute to Conor by reciting 'Invictus' by William Ernest Henley.

And there was something in there by Roosevelt on critics. Very good interview Ariel was blown away.:)

Jaysus Paulie....just stop already! Standing there with his signed poster like a kid who queued up all night. Tragic.

Wonder can conor come at him for breaching the NDA?? Paulie is a clown. Can understand Floyd using him here tho. although it does not reflect well on them in my mind. Doubt conor will care

god almighty Paulie needs to find his own balls

Paulie was at Floyd's gym today apparently........ for a trolling cameo in the last episode of All Access no doubt.

Anyone know the time of the weigh-ins? Also what should we expect from this referee Byrd?

11pm Irish time tonight (Friday).

Byrd is really old. He's 74. Not saying that in an ageist way but he might be a tad slower than other ref's to get into the clinch to break them up.

The other part of that, and I'm not sure if it's age-related or not, but he let an awful amount of stuff go in the Ward-Kovalev fight that he didn't in earlier fights. There was tons of in-fighting and 'dirty' stuff in the clinch and he basically just let them at it.

If he ref's it the way he did that fight, then it's good news for Conor.
