Pacquiao spotted a technical flaw in Ricky Hatton and sent him to the hospital in 2 rounds. What he'd do to Conor doesn't bear thinking about.

Conor is no Ricky Hatton.

In the ring, he's not even a Chris Van Heerden

Here's my analysis: I expect Floyd Mayweather to beat up the guy who couldn't hack it on the Irish amateur circuit

A Bowe v Golota-esque race riot would be the only thing to make it worth buying the PPV

Paulie's getting his cut of the Conor hype train I see, can't knock a hustler.

Lomachenko should fight 6x per year and just chew through underprepared and overmatched challengers to give us a ridiculous highlight reel. "You are mandatory challenger for WBC? I want fight two months. Oh, you want six to train? I will book two more fight before, in Japan and in Ukraine. Is ok."

Hey it worked for Roy Jones Jr

Bit embarrassing for Conor he could only drop a retired commentator once (illegally) in 24 rounds tbh

Does Floyd "The Most Hateable Athlete on Earth" have any fans? At all? He seems to be a pretty repugnant dude.

Conor McGregor for one

It's cheap promotion and a lot of that money will be going back to them anyway

What was the heavyweight boxing match recently where the guy kept getting up from the bell at the last conceivable second in the clear hope that ref would stop it and he could protest it? The ref never did though, and he had to keep fighting a fridge sized man. It was just the other day, but everyone's name escapes me. Anyway, I can imagine that happening here. Or something like that. Something that lets him bow out but save face.

I feel there's a good chance of either this happening, or the corner throwing in the towel early and Conor pretends to get mad

This fight is an excuse to get with friends, get really drunk, and watch a weird rear end sporting event that may never be replicated again in our lifetimes. There is nothing embarrassing about it.

Underwhelming mismatches in boxing happen all the time though
