poo poo tag on purpose https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c56heasj6R8 Floyd Mayweather has applied for an MMA license. He is one of the best boxers of all time but he is also 700 years old and can't read or count by twos so this is probably a bad idea. I don't care about this whatsoever but a lot of people do and will discuss it in threads I do care about until someone makes a special thread just for talking about Floyd Mayweather doing MMA so here you go. Things to talk about : -Floyd Mayweather's itemized fight stat breakdown self assessment -Floyd being rich as hell -Floyd being bad with money and owing the IRS -Floyd beating up Conor McGregor in boxing -Conor McGregor beating up Floyd in MMA -jellybeans and boners and Daniel Day Lewis films and whatever off topic poo poo you want, I don't care and won't read my own thread Triticum Guzzler posted:my man just negotiate a payment plan with the irs, i dont want to see this poo poo

Someone posted "UFC won't pay mayweather enough" and that's true but I imagine the event would be a TMT/UFC co-promotion similar to the previous boxing event.

I like that the exact same people saying Floyd would never have a boxing match with Conor are saying Floyd will never have an MMA fight Dude's only ever cared about money and if he can get a lot out of it (which Dana will 100% be dumb enough to agree to), he'll absolutely do it once

To his credit, Punk displayed an admirable ability to get hit really hard in the head and not go into a coma, to the degree Mickey Gall went "Okay I'll strangle you instead." A modern day Fujita

Knocking people out isn't always easy plus you put yourself at risk of getting knocked out as well. An experienced grappler can just school a rookie without any risk to themselves at all.

If someone has huge power it's easier but sometimes you have to pick apart people who aren't total cans to get your opening.

El Roncho posted:Do what now? OP of the UFC thread posted:The first weekend of the month saw the UFC head to Belem, Brazil for the first time ever for UFC Fight Night: Machida vs. Anders. While there were a couple of decent fights on this card, the main event wasn't one of them, and the co-main was one of the most brutal, mis-matched, unjustifiable booking decisions ever made. Valentina Shevchenko1 beat Priscila Cachoeira2 into a bloody mess. The fight was not remotely competitive at any point in time, and Shevchenko landed 203 significant strikes to her opponent's 2, before mercifully choking out the outmatched Brazilian. 203 loving strikes 203 loving strikes, against someone who was so hilariously outmatched that she absolutely did not need to get beaten up that badly before going for a choke

El Roncho posted:Do what now? He's talking about what was arguably Mario Yamasaki's worst-reffed fight ever, but yeah it was a very bad booking decision and Valentina also probably had several opportunities to end the fight sooner with a choke. She probably wanted the TKO, but Mario wasn't going to give it to her and she finally got tired of punching her opponent's face.

I'm quite familiar with it and yeah it was a travesty. I just didn't know Cachoeira was a former crack addict.

I'd blame the UFC, her corner, and Mario in that order before I'd blame Shevchenko for that beating. The UFC should never have made that fight. Her corner should have stopped it between rounds when she said she was injured and could no longer fight, and Mario should have stopped it way earlier in the second, probably when Valentina had her in that crucifix for a good while just punching her. threeagainstfour fucked around with this message at 23:21 on Mar 20, 2018 |
