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.

He landed 1 punch of significance, the uppercut in the 1st

Even that barely registered on Floyd.

I can't believe people aren't seeing what a farce it was.

Going into Round 6 Conor had outlanded Floyd 51-40 in punches according to Compubox.

Floyd hasn't boxed in over 2 years, comparing Conors stats with Floyd's other fights is fine but hardly comparable. Floyd wasnt fighting a boxer tonight and worked his gameplan for that and executed it without much fuss.

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.

It's amazing that every criticism of McGregor and people immediately throw out the "he's made loads of money you can't criticise him now defence"

Are people not allowed to criticise him as a sportsperson?

After all his trash taking he should be embarrassed not being able to back it up.That would certainly be the case for any other sportsperson who engages in trash talking.

You know McGregor has done something right when even boxing fans are bitter in this victory.

What has he done right? The whole fight was a shambles. He is on the way to being the greatest MMA fighter perhaps of all time, this was just a sideshow to top up his bank balance.

Mayweather didn't try in the early rounds, you were imagining it.

Unfortunately boxing matches last 12 rounds.

Floyd threw lots of hard shots in the early rounds but Conor avoided them easily.

Lot of people saying now that Floyd didn't try early on and that's absolute nonsense.

I'd course he was trying. He was just letting McGregor tíre himself out. He then increased the intensity of his punches. It was pretty easy for him tbh.

Yes, cos Floyd only joined into the fight in round 4

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?

No way. Conor will run a mile from boxing now I'd say. A relatively weak but highly skilled 40 year old schooled him. A young fresh powerful boxer would knock conor out no problem.

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

He has taken too many punches to the head in his career.

Conor landed 111 punches and still never made a mark on Floyd. His usual gambit of fighting lads much smaller than himself doesn't seem to translate into the ring.

Mayweather took 2 to figure him out and it was plain sailing from there on.......didnt think it be that bad but my god that was a proper schooling.

I'd say a fight with Malignaggi is a possibility.

He's not a boxer and it clearly showed. Completely out of his depth.

You can try to come across like a boss you ain't, give fcuking credit to Conor if you don't want to skip on pal.

I think this experience will stand to McGregor when he returns to the UFC and his standup will be way ahead of anyone on the roster

Absolutely. In fact this experience in fighting a top 10 (5?) All time boxer and lasting 10 rounds imo will see him unbeatable at his weight class.
Nate Diaz 3, here we go!!!!

PS: I'm salty that it didn't go the distance. Fecking called it from the get go only to be smited by that dastardly Mayweather

PPS: Did walshb turn face in the middle of the fight??? :pac:

I think most people see past the trash talking as the promoting it really is.

Lose the attitude and keep it civil..or "skip on pal"

It' ridiculous that McGregor just went 10 rounds with Mayweather and people here can't even give him an ounce of credit.

I don't think he should ever step in a boxing ring again, conor is a great fighter but he is at too much of a disadvantage in these boxing matches.

Plus the floyd match was special, I don't think it would get the same kind of attention if he was to fight Canelo etc.

Please God no.

MMA only. I just can't listen to Malignaggi anymore or the boxing forum guys.

It was fun to dream but there was delusion in those dreams too. Proud of Conor 100% but let's do Woodley for welterweight strap :pac: He's unbooked, Conor looked drained at 153lbs, I don't trust Khabib and Lee-Ferguson tied up.

So after Floyd figured him out in 2 rounds, what took him 8 rounds to stop him? Or was it the case that Floyd was wary until he knew Conor was out.

Sounds like Floyd, the actual guy in the ring, knows more about the fight than you
