No thanks, call me when Conor defends a belt

vailpass 07-11-2017 03:45 PM

Blatant money grab with no belt being defended. A past his prime boxer and a sawed-off Irish plumber. Yay.

penbrook 07-11-2017 04:12 PM

Mayweather destroyed Mcgregors ass.

He pulled out a 100 million check

Why do people watch this garbage? All it does is encourage more and more crap on t.v. Just like when people watch shows like the Kardashians. Pathetic.

He owes $22.5 million in taxes and I don't know anyone who keeps that kind of cash on hand. It's most likely tied up in investments like stocks and real estate like most people with lots of money do.

Why would he sell parts of those investments and potentially create more of a tax burden when he has a payday coming up in cash of 5x or more of that amount?

Conor's pinstripe **** you suit is pretty solid though.

Mayweather has a 22.5 million dollar tax burden from 2015 alone he's far from broke. His net worth from personal holdings alone is over $400 million. That doesn't include what TMT promotions makes. He's got plenty of dough.

Mayfeather has one bank account. 1 That is it. I have seen many interviews where he talks about putting all his paychecks into the same passbook savings account.

I think the fight between Danny of the Partridge Family and Greg of the Brady Bunch will end up better.

Danny kicked his ass btw. Johnny Bravo is a pussy.

T-post Tom 07-12-2017 11:28 AM

McGregor is a great shit-talker. Great MMA fighter. Mayweather is one of the best boxers ever. Mayweather will whoop him under Marquess of Queensberry rules. I'm in the minority here, but I like the hype. This will likely be the last fight for both fighters... and I'll be happy to watch it. Then again, I'd probably watch KK and Harry porn. NTTIAWWT

PAChiefsGuy 07-12-2017 11:40 AM

McGregor seems like the GOAT trash talker.

morphius 07-12-2017 11:48 AM

I have to imagine this will look like the last Floyd fight I saw. Floyd will have fast enough hands that McGregor won't get too close, and Floyd won't care to make the fight interesting. Only way this gets interesting is McGregor decides to take some shots and drive through them to get to Floyd.

It's hard to imagine Floyd losing, but it's also hard to doubt Conor. He's bigger, stronger, faster, younger, and hits like a truck.

Conor's head is massive compared to Floyd's.

I think Conor should just make it as dirty as possible. He doesn't really have anything to lose.

Frankly that's my hope because that's all that will make it watchable. If Conor gets frustrated, flips out and starts throwing elbows or shoots for a takedown, that would be tremendous.

Exactly.

Throw some forearms to Floyd's face. Clinch with him and try to do a little grappling.

Make it as close to an mma fight as possible.

I'd love a DQ; I think Conor would too.

You have no idea what is in that contract, and I'll guarantee you a DQ would forfeit a huge part of the purse.

Say what you want about Conor, the man loves money. Not a chance in hell that happens.

It's almost like a WWE fight. All hype. We all know Mayweather will win. He is a genius at picking his opponents.

Day 2 was definently way better. Connor straight owned Floyds ass. I felt like I was back in the attitude era

At least have an actual fight so they can get a believable rematch. It's worth a little effort for $150m+ more.

penbrook 07-12-2017 06:36 PM

Floyd told Connor to bet his whole paycheck this fight and Connor say **** yes he would

alnorth 07-12-2017 06:40 PM

For the casual fans who may have wandered in here, if its not already been made clear, this will not be a close fight. The only question is whether Floyd will KO Conor or if he'll let him make it to a decision. Conor doesn't have literally zero chance, but he only has a puncher's chance, and after 4 rounds he won't even have that.

If you want to watch a freakshow or if you don't like Conor and want to see him get beaten up, well then OK, fine. But if you buy this PPV thinking you are going to see a competitive fight, then you are the mark.

Floyd will win easily. Mcgregor will come out fast. After round 4 Floyd will dominate

McGregor may be the BEST self promoter ever. He is amazing on stage. He's selling tickets and people are placing money on him. "40 years old, carrying a school bag and you can't even read."

In58men 07-13-2017 07:26 AM

The biggest scripted bullshit ever. You know damn well these two were told to say some heavy shit and not doing anything. You can tell these two are not legitimately mad towards one another. It's about the money and not passion.

It's a ****ing circus.

Its a McGregor thing. He is unbelievably good at self-promotion and hyping his fights. So it makes sense to take advantage of his skills on a stage with multi-city tours, his last few fights have had them. They don't do multi-city tours for skilled fighters who are boring as hell when they speak or who sound painfully fake when they try to mimic Conor.

You clearly do not understand how fight promotion works.

Of course it's a circus. IT's supposed to drum up interest.

That's the ****ing point of it.
