I really wish that if this fight goes to the max rounds, then there’s a bonus round where MMA is legal. But that would be stupid.
I still hope connor throws a spinning hook kick to ko mayweather in the third just because it would make him more famous
You’re too optimistic.
Conor got no chance. It’s like having an SF5 player that never played Third Strike trying to fight Kuroda in Third Strike…
Meh, the SF champ has at least a fighting chance in Smash based off pure fundamental skills alone.
I can’t think of any SF fundamentals that would carry over to Smash (especially melee). The movement on the ground and in the air is so different. An airdasher probably has more in common.
Blocking and spacing still work just fine. All that kicking up dust don’t mean shit if they have no clue how to actually hit you.
It’s been a while since I last played Melee, but since I could never be arsed to do more than wavedash a few times per match, I get by just fine waiting for the younguns to run into my fist while they do all that flashy shit.
Anyone with any actual talent at that game has their 2D fundamentals down pat.
Daigo managed to play some basic footsies with Marth in that SFV x Melee event. In fact, Marth is probably the easiest character to learn if you transition from SF to Smash.
Smash players on the other hand, only get their alertness and execution if they hop into SFV. No wonder Scar didn’t went past 4, SFV doesn’t emphasize execution like SFIV.
… I thought I walked into the wrong thread. Gawd damn nerds
You know I can’t resist any chance to talk down Smash “pros” or shit on Capcpom.
It’s like waving an unspoiled TV show thread in front of Rock or Raz0r, and not expecting them to ruin everything that happens next.
I hope McGregor wins for the sheer amount of salt that you would see from Mayweather fans. The twitter shit-storm afterwards would be incredible.
Each guy’s defense force will be out in force regardless of the outcome
Doesn’t matter who wins. The salt will flow either way. If the fight is a draw then the salt will still flow…
ya know…i wanna agree with this. buuuut with the state of racial instability right now…i need all the black dominance wins i can get.
First time posting in this thread.
So… I was never really a fan of MMA, since I thought it was pretty homo/boring, but then I randomly stumbled upon Youtube channel “MMA World”, last year. So with that said, I would like to give my 2c on this historic fight ― all with my less than a year of watching and learning about MMA.
― The fight that everyone has dreamed about. The fight that will answer these age-old questions: ―
[list]
[] “Can a MMA fighter beat a (Insert [boxing] specialist) at their own game?”
[] “Can a MMA fighter beat one of the GOAT UNDEFEATED Boxers ― in his debut boxing match?”
[] “Does the fact that Conor has MMA knowledge, does MMA knowledge > Pure boxing knowledge?”
[] “Do MMA fighters have the edge when transitioning into specific combat sports?”
[*] And most importantly: “Will Conor prove Bruce Lee’s philosophy to be correct?”
[/list]

I’ve put all my faith in Conor. I’ve put all my faith in him because he represents Bruce Lee’s philosophy, when it comes to Martial Arts ― not just boxing, but Martial Arts as a whole.

"This is legacy. This is people doubting me, questioning my skill set. Talking as if I’m a novice. Talking as if I haven’t been doing this my entire life. I’ve been fighting since day one and I’m the best there is. I can fight in many forms. We’re going to prove this. This here is Bruce Lee shit."
I bet on Conor against my brother and my friend for $100 each.
Just as Conor has applied Bruce’s philosophy of Martial Arts to MMA, Boxing, and whatever other combat sport he may enter into, I have applied Bruce’s philosophy to fighting games.

Connor better watch out or he might start doing this
What kind of warm up is this? I’ve genuinely never seen that before.
That’s how Irish dudes dance with 12 pints of Guinness in em. Mick bastards.
