Heel Floyd didn't work for me. I was never a fan. My respect for him doubled last night. I'm still thrilled about that Jim Gray praise.

How do you see Conor winning the MMA match?zombie wrote:a non-boxer got beat by a boxer.... let's see mayweather fight mcgregor in an mma match.
McGregor's background before MMA was in boxing. Mayweather has never done MMA. I dunno what that would prove.zombie wrote:a non-boxer got beat by a boxer.... let's see mayweather fight mcgregor in an mma match.
It was brilliant for him though. He made 99% of his money as the heel. As amazing as he was for a decade, he couldn't sell a fight until he fought De La Hoya at 30, that seemed to be when he really started promoting the obnoxious personality.Jason wrote:Heel Floyd didn't work for me.

Professionally it was, but he grew up boxing as a kid so the fundamentals were there. Mayweather has never done anything but box.zombie wrote:heard this was his debut boxing match. if that's wrong, then i take my statement back.Headhunter wrote:McGregor's background before MMA was in boxing.

In all honesty, even if he was up for it there's 0% chance MMA could draw the numbers to meet whatever Floyd's price would be.Reign in Blood wrote:2 men in a cage ready to kill.Headhunter wrote:McGregor's background before MMA was in boxing.

Stop rooting for McGregor to spite my dislike for him.Reign in Blood wrote:Floyd's such a bitch, turning his back through a quarter of the rounds. Hugging is it's own thing, then he pulls that shit egging for rabbit punches and back shots.
That's garbage and you know it! Even the ref told him to stop doing that shit!Jason wrote:Stop rooting for McGregor to spite my dislike for him.Reign in Blood wrote:Floyd's such a bitch, turning his back through a quarter of the rounds.

Okay, now you're drifting into MMA mark delusions a bit. Mayweather would have adjusted to anything McGregor showed him and he has broken down every kind of defense. Too much speed, too much intelligence and Conor's power wasn't anything Floyd hadn't seen before. Floyd's game plan accounted for wanting to go out giving the fans a show.Reign in Blood wrote:I think McGregor could have won this shit if someone taught him some fucking defense. And obviously more cardio would've went a ways, but god damn, learning better slipping and putting up the arms/gloves would've went good like Floyd doing all day.
The ref told McGregor to stop hitting him in the back of the head, homeboi.Reign in Blood wrote:That's garbage and you know it!
