At what percent would the sparring partner come at Conor in a scenario like this? Would he be trying to go fro his head and try for knock outs?
Let's say a golfing long drive champion was transitioning to the PGA tour and faced off with a 60 year old fat ex PGA golfer. I know its different and non contact but thats the best comparison I can come up with. The 60 year old is gonna beat the long drive dude every single day. I truly believe Paulie could win a fight against an in shape Conor. I'm totally sold on the "this is not his sport" arguement.
Floyd KO's him in 3 rounds or less and mostly likely in the first round. That is the only possibility here no matter what angle I look at this from.
I think we're kind of arguing the same point here.
It wasn't that the sparring partner said that Conor won, that I was talking about. It's the "it wasn't one sided either way." Seems like he'd just say "Yeah, Conor put it on him" and leave it alone for people to accept or not accept. Addressing that Paulie was competitive in there is what made me think it may be truthful. And if out of shape Paulie was winning those middle rounds against Conor, he's in big trouble. Paulie mentioned he was sharper in the 2nd sparring session than the first. So I would imagine by the 4th or 5th, he'd have been winning virtually every round.
If you put Paulie and Conor in an 8 week camp to prepare to fight each other, I don't think Conor would have a chance in hell.
Like you said, this is not his sport. Everything is different. I don't see this ever being competitive. It goes until Floyd wants to end it.
