St Evan Echoes posted:Chris Eubank said a very important factor about this fight.. floyd has never stepped in the ring with a ufc fighter sure.. but he defo hasn't stepped in the ring with an Irish man.. Everyone knows Irish fighters are prone to cuts above they eye. All Mayweather has to do is to punch in that area and the fight will be over quick.

The NAC approved 8 oz gloves for the Mayweather McGregor fight. The reaction from MMA media is..... odd. Lots of over-the top indignation and criticism.

I was looking at my spreadsheet and the only other time I bet on boxing I lost. I bet on the Pacquiao/Bradley fight and I vowed never to bet on boxing again. So maybe this is a sign that Conor will win. Either way it's gonna be a hell of a ride and I can't wait for the fight.

The commission notes a request from Floyd Mayweather to form Voltron, the defender of the universe on August 26th. Having considered the dignity and graciousness with which Mr. Mayweather has conducted his career to date we are minded to allow this request and shall use it as a case study for the effects of forming Voltron, the legendary defender, going forward. Next up we have a travel grant request from Jeffrey Cumloads' Boxing to attend the Golden GLoves championships

jase1 posted:It took a ton of negotiating and lots of fancy presents but after speaking with the wife I am now allowed to place a huge bet on the Mayweather fight. I can't bet pro football for 6 weeks if Iose so here we are. Facetimed with the bookie last night and he said the Mayweather fight is now at Floyd -357 I am stunned at how low it is and spent all night making a deal with the wife so I can place a substantial bet on the fight. Confirmed with the bookie that he wont cancel this bet and he also is letting me go over my max limit for this because he is laying off most of the action anyways. I guess he has a ton of people betting loads of money on Conor which blows my mind. So after a new bedroom set, a new dog named floyd by the way (was the only way I would let her get one) and some new privacy landscaping around our lanai, I can now announce my bet. If Coner wins the dogs name should be Coner e- misspell the dogs name too Benjamin Arthur fucked around with this message at 21:51 on Aug 16, 2017 |

Over half of Floyd's fights being knockouts in loving BOXING means nothing. Who, other than Hatton, has he crushed this decade? I know there is one other guy but Mayweather isn't exactly Hendo. I know this from personal experience and genetic tests done at hospital - apparently people with blue eyes, red hair, and predominately Celtic (Irish/Scottish) genes have a studied high tolerance to pain. If Conor quits it will be because of gas, not fear of the boxing God turtle.

You raise an excellent point that people have been reluctant to bring up so far: McGregor is white, and therefore genetically superior.

Actually not feeling "normal" pain responses is considered inferior. It's literally almost killed me on multiple occasions. If Conor has any of those genes he is going to get hosed up in the late rounds. Also if he doesn't. Basically someone needs to Nancy Kerrigan Conor if it reaches the end of the fifth.

Today is gonna be the day that you're gonna see that Irish IQ By now you shoulda found out that it's way below the english and the jew I don't believe that anybody feels the way I do Around a skull And all the rages that they feel are blinding And all their men are drunks is what we're finding There are many scientific truths that I would like To say to you but I don't know how Because maybe, phrenology is respected greatly And after all, you're my wonderwall

I.N.R.I posted:its roughly as good as nate diaz's since he matched his pace for 25 minutes He gassed out 7 minutes into that fight. 7 minutes in which he followed the age old beat diaz gameplan of 'kick his legs' and 'stay the gently caress away from him' and he gassed. He finished the fight underneath him, sucking air. It took everything he had to stay in that fight, to become the 9th man to beat him by decision. His gas tank is poo poo. Captain Log posted:Over half of Floyd's fights being knockouts in loving BOXING means nothing. Who, other than Hatton, has he crushed this decade? I know there is one other guy but Mayweather isn't exactly Hendo. It sort of means something, seeing as this will be contested in boxing, and Conor isn't a boxer.

Also the early rounds. Because he's not a boxer. And Floyd is, objectively, the best boxer.

Maidana needed to throw 858 punches over 36 minutes in order to sort of have an argument for beating Mayweather but not really. To contrast, McGregor threw 322 strikes over 25 minutes in order to arguably beat Nathan Diaz and gassed badly in the process.
