Mayweather vs McGregor - Event Thread MOD WARNING POST 1- DO NOT IGNORE!!

Axwell

This is the main event thread for the fight between Mayweather & McGregor.

All other discussion remains in the McGregor thread

**THREAD RULES **

The thread is for discussing the weight ins and the event itself.

1. It is not for dropping in to give your opinion on Conor McGregor or Floyd Mayweather and why you hate them or want to see them get knocked out. It is not for discussing how how if this was an MMA fight McGregor would destory him or who wins in a street fight, or how the fight is a farce or any of that other nonsense. There has been enough of that in the McGregor thread, if you want to discuss that sort of thing take it there. Basically if you arent discussing the actual event or the weigh ins then take it elsewhere.

2. ANY nonsense in here and it is a ban, there are no warnings..those have been given in the other thread and this is there is a strict no nonsense policy in this thread.

Any trolling, goading other posters, back and forth tit for tat, personal abuse, fighter bashing or anything else against the charter and you are banned - plain and simple for a minimum of 3 days.

3. If someone posts something they shouldnt just report it an move on, do not engage and get into nonsense back and forth or you will be banned also.

4. Your only reason to be on this thread is if you are here to enjoy the fight no matter which fighter you want to see win. This is a big event with plenty of interest and people want to sit back and enjoy it, including myself. If you are here to troll, get a reaction or causing hassle then you will be leaving as quickly as you arrive.

I don't care if its your first post or your 1000th you have been warned, if you chose to ignore it you only have yourself to blame.

5. If you receive a ban and decide to send a pm complaining it will not be even looked at till at least Monday after the fight so you have been warned.

6. Do not ask about illegal streams - its that simple, no discussion. It is against boards policy and you will get a ban. That applies to asking about them, posting about them or looking for people to pm them. No discussion on them, end of.

Conors punches were like a fella who never fought before,very weird punching style,loads of grabbing and rabbit punches too,lets just hope it's the end of him in the Boxing ring and stick to rolling around in a cage

Nite folks...

Conor a "winner" for me tonight...

With real stamina he could have won..

For all the talk about preparation and "doing the work" for him to gas so early was a surprise. Looking at the fight you would have reversed the roles and had Conor as the 40 yr old. It highlights that the training was not right and geared towards 12x3 rounds.

All said he can hold his head up high.

Bit of a farce really

More so on floyd's part

Conor did well to get his pay cheque but Floyd could have ended that in round one if he wanted lads. Let's not fool ourselves

No way floyd could've ended it that quick, he had to wait until conor was gassed

He doesn't roll around the cage, all of his wins are by punches.

Official scorecards were a joke!

But i don't give a fcuk, Conor just went 10 rounds with arguably TGE and for most of it didn't look out of his dept.

The fans win on this fight fcukin loved every bit of that fight.

Looked out of his depth for at least 7.
Thought he was going to ask ref for a Euro for a hostel at the end, didn't know where he was.

I see the usual suspects are out trying to change the narrative already. Next it'll be "Conor had him in trouble early on!"

Floyd did what he always does - took a few rounds off at the beginning to figure things out (particularly sensible against a guy 20 lbs heavier than you with a big height and reach advantage) and then outclassed him.

That takes nothing away from McGregor's performance.

That sounds like a 1970's Irish soccer 'moral victory' ?

Nah nineties Irish rugby was the heyday of moral victories.

It was crap. So was the Davis fight before it. He missed weight too.

Imagine spending 10,000 on a ticket. I'd be projectile vomiting outside if I spent that sort of money on that.

Was disappointed with the result and how it went but enjoyed watching the first few rounds. I enjoyed the build up, the discussions online.

Plus I'll be waking up on Sunday without a hangover so... there is that

Conor did alot of trash talking coming up to this. Now he looks like an ejet after losing.

Yeah he really looked stupid walking away with 100m alright :rolleyes:

He has just got more money from one single fight than 99.99% of boxers will make in their life time. But yeah, what a fool.

lol. That's what he sounded like.

I wonder would Conor take the same money to jump in with Canelo now that he's a pro boxer that can go 10 with the GOAT?

Official compubox stats:

Landed/Thrown

111/430 Conor. (26%)

He outlanded Pacquiao, Canelo, Berto and they all lasted 12 and had higher %'s.

Before anyone moans about "clean punches" compubox use the same criteria they used for all those other fights.

No. He landed far more solid shots that were no-sold by Carl Froch.

Conor should fight Paulie next instead of going back to mma

What's Carl Frock's problem?
He seems like a right bellend.

Better then Mayweather v Pacquiao / Haye v Vladimir Klitschko.

But that is not saying much.
