Game Thread Mayweather vs McGregor fight thread!

[Minstrel]

You missed my edit, so I'll repeat it here: And as for "combat sports"--are you willing to say Mayweather would have a puncher's chance against McGregor in a UFC match?

 

[theprunetang]

This went exactly as I suspected. Give me some real boxing.

 

[dviss1]

McGregor did WAAAAAAAY better than the experts thought he would.

No shame in losing.

Roy Jones jr. Called it when he said that McGregor hasn't seen a 5th or 6th round and that he would get tired from the gloves that were two times as heavy as two gloves he was using. All of that came true.

 

[Natebishop3]

This is pretty much exactly what I thought would happen.

 

[Cippy91]

I wonder if Conor's boxing skills will help him at all in the MMA? He was one of the best strikers before...

I think it will greatly, this experience only made him better, and richer...

said he wants to fight in the UFC again before the year is over

was still better than mayweather/ pac man

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Why?

Ferguson vs. Conor is a way better fight.

Better on paper but let's be honest, the average person doesn't know who or how good Tony is. Same with Khabib (who probably won't get a shot again).

So much better. That fight was a waste. I didn't enjoy it anywhere close to this one.

 

[illmatic99]

That was more compelling than I thought it would be

The average person didnt know who Nate was before he fought Conor.

Nate doesn't deserve the trilogy right now tbh.

 

[dviss1]

Weak.... Try harder.

Colin should have just kicked him in the nuts like I wanted him to.

I think people knew of Nate, mainly because of his brother though.

Conor will fight whoever he wants when he returns to the UFC. He might want to fight Nate again.

what?

Definitely. That was a snooze fest.

If he calls out GSP... lol

Sure. And i will watch it. But i don't really care to see it and don't think Nate deserves it. Ferguson does, especially if he beats Kevin Lee.

 

[BigGameDamian]

Conor speaks: “I thought it was close ... I get a little floppy when I get tired ... [Floyd] was a lot more composed. You’ve got to give it to him ... I don’t know if I will box again”

 

[speeds]

Good man? McGregor is a piece of s*** s*** talker. That's all he does is f****** talk. He's lost three times you know. He freaking tapped before.

Sugar Ray and Henry Armstrong both have like 20 losses, must be a couple of bums.

 

[Natebishop3]

I bet there's a rematch.

 

[HailBlazers]

I bet there's a rematch.

Nah May done

 

[BigGameDamian]

Good thing is that Floyd can now pay his taxes.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

I bet there's a rematch.

Yeah when they're 45 and 56 years of age

 

[speeds]

Don't see any losers tonight. Good show. Brave performance by Conor. Professional win by Floyd. No chance for judging fuckery. Stoppage was quick but difficult to argue the fight outcome would've been any different. Fans had fun.

 

[Minstrel]

I bet there's a rematch.

I don't think the interest will be there to drive the pot up so high. And without that kind of payout, I doubt either guy will be interested.

This plus Floyd hasn't been much for rematches during his career.

Mayweather 170-of-320 (53.1%)
McGregor 111-of-430 (25.8%)

 

[julius]

If you were McGregor, would you go back to MMA/UFC? He just made the most money he'll ever probably make in a fight, why now settle for peanuts?
