I hope Mayweather punches McGregor just silly enough that McGregor forgets the boxing rules and puts a shin across "Money's" dome!

And they said Trump couldn't win the republican primary let alone the white house...Connor started boxing at 12 and won the novice championship at 16 then moved on to grappling.Most of his MMA wins are by striking and old Floyd is 40 years old..Most boxers coming out of retirement at 40 don't do all that well.(I said most)..Will Floyd have the stamina in the clinches against a pro grappler..
Connor has said if he don't get respect from Floyd,he just may get respect his way.(laughing)..He also told Floyd senior, he could put junior to sleep before he could get into the ring to stop it.All they hype leading up to possibly, a good short fight!
At the very least,I would like to see Connor kick that loud mouthed/ stuck up/ arrogant Mayweather into the next county. I must be one of the "suckers". I will certainly be watching and expecting Connor to win.

Anybody gonna watch this fiasco?
Nope. It's fixed from the get-go.
Camp is where you make it.

Don't give a [bleep] about the fight but I'd tune in to see mayweather pay his F'ing taxes.
Something clever here.

That's funny, 200% more padding(what changes the gloves weight)doesn't effect kinetic energy ?, why do you think they outlawed bare knuckle contests professionally ?...people would die.
Wrong. MMA used to be bare knuckle all the time.

In the old days of Bare knuckle boxing, almost nobody aimed for the head.
Almost no deaths in 100+ years.
Then, they added gloves. Everybody staring hitting the head...
4-5 deaths each year.

Socialism for big corporations and military industrial complex
&
Rugged individualism for the individual.

Wrong. MMA used to be bare knuckle all the time. "Used" to be, being the operative word.

Nope. It's fixed from the get-go. Yep. All a set up for a big pay day. Hell, even their press conference banter is as staged as it gets.

Hah! Love it. Flair was the man! I used to work with Dusty's daughter a loooong time ago. Cool chick as I recall.

I hope Connor gets tagged by Floyd, loses his bearing and throws a nasty kick to his head
And makes Floyd do the fish outta water flop.

If Manny Pac couldn't catch and tag Mayweather, I'm not seeing McGregor doing so.

Conor is a lot bigger than Manny, and a far longer/rangy fighter,,,,Floyd is used to conventional fighters, square off and box...CMG is anything but conventional, he'll charge across the ring every round and turn it into a street fight. He has no fear of Floyd knocking him out, he'll pin him on the ropes and rough him up...plus he's a southpaw. It will be interesting, for those that are fight fans anyway.

I just wish it was an MMA match. Me too  Even some modified rules would be great, no leg kicks but elbows allowed...ground and pound legal haha Floyd would never enter the ring, bet on it.
