Title, the dudes a beast don't get me wrong, and in an actual fight I'd give it to McGregor 80/20; 100 if it's an mma match , but a boxing match? Are there people who think Connor can take this? I don't like mayweather as he's kinda boring to watch but the dude knows how to play the rules in his favor, and above all he knows how to box and what to do to win. I don't see McGregor having any chance at a win imo, thoughts?

McGregor's only chance of winning is KO/TKO.

But regardless, it's a win/win for him, even if he loses.

The reason why people say mc Gregor could ko mayweather is because Conor has knocked out some guys bigger than Floyd. So Floyd would need to be very careful with his head movements.
Besides that he gets outclassed.

Actually, this event has been so hyped and advertised, plus there is so much money riding on it that I would be surprised if it wasn't some scripted bullcrap.

May will win to appease the fans, imo.

Oh it is definitely scripted, it's all about the money.

Conor would beat him only if it was an MMA match, but it isn't. Conor is in a sport that Floyd is arguably the greatest at, so his chances of wining are almost impossible.

Don't know. Hell, his sparring partner quit on him and showed that he could easily land hits on him.

There's even a ror that McGregor got knocked out during sparring.

The fight, tbh, could go either way. But I think Mayweather would win in a boxing match. If McGregor does then more power to him.

It's pretty ****ing sad how every flavor of the month mma fighter has to take shots at him when they're on a streak.

Mcgregor is in it for the money and so is may.


A man wouldn't have stepped in the ring with that irish gold-digger out of respect for both sports.

Its boxing. Anything can happen.

Many great fighters lost to fodder due to crazy things happen.

All it takes is the hit you dont see that knocks you out.

Look at buster douglas vs tyson

i saw Mayweather vs Paqiuo or however you spell it. after that ill never follow the hype in that sport

i dont understand though, how is it that someone whose never boxed can automatically fight the champion? like shouldnt you have to work your way up to that?

Floyd retired two years prior to the announcement of this fight.

Funny enough though, the created a money belt for the two of them to fight over.

I think Mcgregor having a background in various forms of martial arts and studying Bruce Lee will give a unique edge in his fight against Mayweather. Floyd definitely has the advantage of being the best boxer alive in a boxing match, but Mcgregor is not a traditional boxer.

It's definitely too hard to call; Im leaning towards Mayweather winning the fight, but I want Mcgregor to win.
