I don't remember who it was against but that fight where old man Ali was just chillin out in the corner holding onto the ropes and the other dude couldn't even lay a hand on him remains one of the funniest and most amazing things I've ever seen.

Power of Pecota posted:I'm pretty sure that title goes to Muhammad Ali/Chuck Wepner. I meant the absolutely no defense fighting style Stallone brought to the big screen, not the inspiration. Gatti-Ward 1 Round 9 is probably an even better real life analogue.

Benne posted:Never would've guessed 6 months ago that Mauro would end up calling more Conor McGregor fights than WrestleMania shows this year. There's a non-zero chance that Jim Ross will call more WWE matches this year than Mauro did. I also assume that this means John Layfield is gonna watch this whole fight with the sound off.

ICE CUBE could sabotage Conor McGregor and Floyd Mayweather’s plans to stage their super fight at the T-Mobile Arena. The rapper’s BIG 3 basketball league had already booked the location for the league championship game on the same night. The UFC star and retired boxing legend announced their highly-anticipated bout would take place on August 26. A BIG 3 source told TMZ they have no intentions of moving their date. With their game expected to go ahead, BIG 3 are continuing to promote tickets to their match to take place on August 26. Ice Cube gonna get paid y'all

Conor is going to win by KO for the same metaphysical reason that Donald Trump is the president

The Nevada State Athletic Commission wouldn't sanction Butterbean vs. Mark Hunt in an MMA fight because Hunt was too good at grappling, and it wouldn't have been fair to Butterbean.

Sound posted:getting f-f-f-hosed up in the ring will continue to get hosed up IRL as well Kind of a specious comparison -- as far as the brain is concerned, fighting is real life. With any ref they'd care to use for the McGregor/Mayweather fight, that would have been 3 knockdowns and done.

Yeah that's a tragedy but it's a tragedy caused by negligent ring doctors, refs, corner men etc. Something like that is extremely unlikely to happen in a fight this high profile with much more competent staff present. The fight will be stopped long before Floyd actually dies.
