The Boxing Thread

It’s the John Cena Effect.

Also, seems like the only way to beat Mayweather is to KO him…

no one should be surprised. i was curious if he was saving this material for later or if he wasnt allowed to talk about it. answers that question.

Whoever is Conor’s NBA jersey guy should be fired. Pretty much everyone thought that was a Draymond Green jersey (even Draymond) since Watson hasn’t worn that jersey in almost 6 years. Could be forgiven if Watson wasn’t still in the league (#32 on Orlando)

So the Conor & Paulie stories are ridiculous. They published photos of Paulie being knocked down with Conor standing over him. I just don’t get it, they are already selling the fight there’s no need to publish bullshit and start being a circus.

ive heard stories that its not sold out yet. probably because of the high ticket prices. tryin to work that clickbait

Can’t wait for Conor to get wiped out in Round 1. I’m not a Mayweather fan either

Its likely due to the fact that McGregor, a good fighter in his discipline is simply not a honed boxer.

This exhibition is akin to having a pro baseball player do 18 on a PGA route. They both hit balls, and fighters both hit people but the dynamics, rules and scoring are vastly different.

Sure, they’re both highly proficient sportsmen, but the games they excel at have vastly different rules.

This shouldn’t be making as much money as it is… Hype generation sure, but in a strict boxing match, unless McGregor shows up with some hidden tech it’ll be a typical Mayweather fight and the boy will simply get out boxed the entire time.

Has anyone seen the stats on McGregor/Floyd in Vegas? I don’t think he will win, but I am thinking of putting a few hundred bucks on the 3 ways he can win just in case. 44 to 1 if he goes the distance and wins is pretty retarded.

McGregor can be unpredictable. His second fight vs. Diaz he came out with constant leg kicks which aren’t his thing.

I think if there is a way for someone like McGregor to beat Mayweather he’ll find it.

Yeah, I just looked at the ticket prices and everything 1800+. The 1800 prices are the cheap seats. That is insane; they are really gouging the fans to see this circus. I wouldn’t pay 100 dollars for average seats to see this crap.

Did any of you guys use to get on the ESPN boxing forums before they did away with it?

i heard it was worth more to put money down before they really adjusted shit. Now its only worth it if he kos mayweather early.

yeah only the fuckin one percenters are gonna be about to afford that shit. also why would you want those fuckers watching this?

da fuq? bradley retired??

Now this is the fight we need to be talking about GGG vs Canelo. Rumors have it that GGG came into camp overweight. https://www.badlefthook.com/2017/8/17/16161000/canelo-ggg-golovkin-170lbs-at-30-day-weigh-in

Mayweather just wants that 50 win streak…

Yes it was completely unpredictable for a fighter who wants to beat a diaz brother to use leg kicks. -_-

nates the one weak to leg kicks not nick

ok one diaz brother, my point remains the same.

Not really. Conor isn’t known for throwing them and Nick isn’t known to have issues with them. Nick said something about McGregor having a smart coach after the fight.

Mayweather will have to fight a Noob after his 50 wins in a row

Nate? Nick is the older one.
