The fight is at the end of next month, I think. I'm sure most are betting on Floyd but I would personally like to see him get his head knocked off. Plus McGregor is a southpaw and hits like a freight train. Will it be a good fight or will Floyd dance around the ring playing on the defensive like always?
I think Floyd wins easily, but McGregor has a punchers chance. No way McGregor wins a decision, he just has to hope Floyd's age has caught up to him and he catches him with the perfect punch.
It smells like it's an all hype money grab - as dirty/corrupt as boxing has always been I would not be surprised if it was fixed for Floyd to lose or at least there be some controversy so that they could have a second huge pay day and even a third - but always the possibility it can be a good fight b/c McGregor is a scrapper - but recent history shows Floyd's fights to be a lot of hype but be underwhelming after it's all said and done
I mean, there's a high chance I'll watch. But its not like I'm going to Vegas for it, or even making plans to have a party or anything. I may go to a strip club to watch so I have something else to do if/when I'm underwhelmed, or maybe a Twin Peaks kinda joint.
I'm expecting Floyd to do what he usually/always does. But will likely watch just to see.
I see it as just another payday for Mayweather I won't pay to see it but if it's on and I'm out I'll watch it, if it doesn't get too boring. Doubt that it'll go the distance.
Mayweather, if he wins will hold the best "perfect" boxing record at 50-0. He is now tied with marciano at 49-0. No way does he let that slip away. Having said that I would love to see the irishman knock him out as defensve fighters are the air dancers of boxing.
Mayweather will do as he always does, play defense and get a few jabs in when he can. Boring, not really a fight. He basically games the boxing scoring system.
He has power to knockout others that aren't as good at boxing as him though. So maybe he knocks out McGregor.
I don't konw if it is true there seem to be conflicting reports but I keep seeing that McGregor was knocked out sparring, if that is true he is fucked. I hate Mayweather but in a boxing match McGregor just doesn't have the skill or experience, unless he somehow catches Mayweather with a lucky shot, and Mayweather is good at not taking shots.
Mayweather's way too good... esp at his own game. Love him or hate him, gotta give him props for his work ethic and still the best in the game at the age of 40.
Not my favorite fighter, but respect his talent level and what he does that casual fans don't see... still going to be a one-sided, boring fight itself with some good drama leading up to it, if you're into that sorta thing.
Just finding out that the match is going to be sanctioned under boxing rules, Connor Gregor doesn't have a chance of a snowflake in a July heat wave, of beating Mayweather, this is going to be a snoozepalooza.

LOL. Great analogy.

Most likely a unanimous decision for Mayweather.
I also don't think you can call him overrated.
Nope.

How could you possible blow through that much money living in a state with no income tax?
Mayweather by absolute domination.

I drive by it occasionally. It is impressive.
