Every time I watch Vasyl Lomachencko spar with TJ Dillashaw I feel like I get a glimpse of what Mayweather/McGregor would look like. TJ hits him clean like one time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxbRy_PO0vU

I mean, sure they're going to approve the request. But is there a fight signed yet? No.

It's not even that far out. I know Mayweather Promotions has been actively pushing their fighters too. Just going off the nightmare that was May/Pac I think it's going to be really hard to make this fight happen on 10 weeks notice. The PPV rights alone took months with May/Pac and then there was the ticketing fiasco. Holy poo poo.

Mr. Nice! posted:I think all of that negotiation has been going on already. Once the fight is signed, the negotiations are done. They've been talking behind the scenes for a long time on this already. Maybe, maybe not. The Mayweather/Pacquiao fight was signed but then each camp fought over tickets up until basically fight week.

I'm starting to think that the only way Floyd loses this fight is if he cares more about money than 50-0. Edit. Typo JaySB fucked around with this message at 00:48 on Jun 15, 2017 |

Conor's legitimate only shot is to come out and swarm Floyd like Maidana. He can bait and taunt all he wants but Floyd is never going to circle into Conor's left hand.

Roberto Guerrero was the last southpaw outside of Manny that Floyd has fought right? Doesn't seem like he has had much trouble with them in recent years.

Here's the full fight of Mayweather vs Guerrero. Guerrero is close to the same height as Conor and has a slightly shorter reach as a southpaw. There's a chance in the first couple rounds that Conor can follow this game plan if Floyd comes out flat footed and stands in front of him....But it's real doubtful https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ww0XkiFb0LU

Yeah, I get what you're trying to say but really. Lomachenko just fought for free on ESPN. Him fighting Chocolatito or Rigondeaux or Garcia aren't really gonna be PPV blockbusters.

Marching Powder posted:I don't think he's aiming to become a money getting record setter I think he's mostly focused on proving himself the best boxer anywhere close to his weight class. I'm not arguing that. My initial response was to "Lomachenko deserves a money fight" and there's nobody out there for him to fight for big money.

Boxing footwork, in general, is much more intensive than MMA footwork. Especially for the non professional boxer who likes to stand in a wide legged karate stance trying to hit the least hittable boxer on planet earth.
