So, like, is McGregor allowed to like takedown and punch the poo poo out of Floyd from a mount or whatever? I'm not a boxing or MMA guy but I would think taking a MMA guy and making him only box would be a serious disadvantage in most cases, and vice-versa for a boxer but moreso.

McGregor needs Floyd lightyears more than Floyd needs McGregor, so the fight could only possibly happen under Floyd's terms.

Keven will be proven right when Byrd awards McGregor the KO.

Conor using Mayweather tactics against him is extremely funny.

Insulting people who beat women using whatever language you feel like is cool.

Demanding you show some level of respect that is not disrespect to people who beat women is very stupid, and probably makes you the worst kind of person (a Travis Browne fan).

Saying that calling someone a term for a child is racist when used towards members of a specific race (but not others then it's okay) is racist.

I think so but it's also boxing we're talking about. Racial conflict is bound up in it to a greater extent than other sports.

Serious.

I'm pretty sure the vast majority of Floyd's biggest fights have racial conflict. It's a great money strategy that worked for him for years, which is one reason why it's hilarious to see it used against him.

Maybe when black people own Irish slaves in the US for a few hundred years we can call it even but until then Conor would have to be a complete idiot to not understand the racial implications of using the word boy.

The people who started the slave trade in the US decided that enslaving blacks was bad, then decades later decided genocide of the Irish was good.

This but Big John McCarthy instead of the mountain.

No one, no matter their terrible deeds in life, deserves the ire of John McCarthy.
