I don't remember who it was against but that fight where old man Ali was just chillin out in the corner holding onto the ropes and the other dude couldn't even lay a hand on him remains one of the funniest and most amazing things I've ever seen.

That was an exhibition match but I like to pretend they were going for realsies.

Remember that noted power puncher Nate Diaz turned him into a desperate wrestler.

Is there an equivalent in boxing to 'failure to stand from butt scoot?' I remember somebody getting DQ'd against Tyson because they would not stop clinching him. Then again, the alternative was getting punched by Mike Tyson.

Tyson's punching power was severely overrated.

If Floyd had half the personality that Conor had boxing would still be popular.

Well, if one thing comes out of this, it's that I'll never, ever get Floyd's annoying "Yeaaahh" out of my head.

No. Why are you coming after me instead of people who excuse racism?

Because it happened, what, two days ago, and literally no one except some dudes on the internet care anymore. If it was in a different context it may have meant more to the societal structure of these United States but it happened during a freak show circus act and most people can see it for what it is, not some underlying narrative about the racial tensions of native Irishmen and blacks.

So it's OK to be racist if you make a circus out of it? Nope.

edit: I wish I was smart enough to understand when it is OK to say racist things. Apparently it's all the time because of a bevy of excuses.

Here's when it's ok to say racist things: Never. But you're not going to bring the systematic racism structure of America down by making a big deal about a circus act that is going to be washed over by a thousand more sensationalist terms, like, you know, the black guy calling the white guy a human being. This is not worth your time.

Why did Floyd yell 'Form Voltron' and what did that achieve.

Surprised no one answered seriously about this super serious subject. When he said it his body guards surrounded McGregor and sexually assaulted him.

I mean, let's be honest and real in this thread for a second, some real talk. We're all hoping that Conor pulls out with an undisclosed injury on August 25th, right?
