Ok, I guess..
Can't believe that Bigfoot actually gets paid for that shit.
Overeem went all Daniel son with that kick and then threw some vicious bombs after that.
I've read McGreggor gets somewhere is the neighborhood of $5M-$6M per fight between show up bonus, win bonus and PPV bonus over his last few fights.Quote:

My guess is $$ gets the guy he can easily beat for his 50th. He gets a guy that "everyone" will tune in to see and draw BIG PPV sales.
And what it's all said and done McGreggor could "demand" $20M for the fight and laugh his balls off at UFC all the way to the bank.
Conor's a lock. May has no power what so ever.Quote:

What does power have to do with getting pointed out 10 to 1?Quote:

Nate Diaz would beat May as well. Nate spars with world class boxers all the time. We'll just have to agree to disagree. I'm out.Quote:

I mean when you say that Conor has the 'Touch of Death', Mayweather has the 'God of Feints' - which even hypothetically defeats 'Touch of Death' all day.Quote:

If you think either of Diaz or McGreggor are going to go into a boxing ring, and even be mildly competitive with Floyd Mayweather, you're kidding yourself.
You may be right on Andre Ward and Diaz. But on Conor v Mayweather, please cut back on the Mayweather Kool Aid. Conor could even buckle May with body shots if need be. There's zero chance of Conor getting KO'd he could just walk thru Mayweathers shots a unleash devastating blow after devastating blow.Quote:

Omg you guys.. just hope this fight never happens.
I called it on Aldo Mcg, I said the Conor would KO Aldo so early it wouldn't even quench the thirst of the fans or something like that.
I said pre Paq v May that it was guaranteed to be a boring point fight that goes to a decision and I couldn't believe how many people were sucked into the hype.
I called Nate vs Mcg
and I couldn't of been be more wrong on Meisha v Holm, women smh.
Conor without the threat of a TD, wow.
also wearing the heavier gloves and not having the ability to kickQuote:

I'm burnt on jui juitsu, sick of wrestlers taking down the b52 bombers. I do not look forward to Muslim Beard Khabib's upcoming reign in the UFC.

You think an MMA fighter, with no top level pro boxing experience can beat the number 1 boxer in the entire goddamn world, and I need to stop drinking the KoolAid? Tight fucking logic, bro.Quote:

Do you have any idea how hard it is to hit Mayweather to the body? You've got a better chance of landing a clean shot to the head. Canelo is a devastating body puncher, and he couldn't do it. McGregor doesn't hit hard enough to hurt Mayweather, even if he could land something (he can't, btw). Don't even get me started on footwork. You realize the kind of positioning you need to have against a guy faster, smarter, more accurate, with maybe the best defense of any boxer, ever? Mayweather would have that fool falling all over the ring.
I can't believe you're actually trying to make a case for this. If it were as easy as "lol May can't hit, just walk him down" it'd have been done by now. By, you know, one of those 49 professional boxers that he's fought.
Stop making sense, I always swallow the hype hook, line and sinker please let me have my Conor is the GOAT dreamQuote:
