Mayweather VS Mcgregor official fight thread August 26th

[P A Z]

It was the most entertaining Mayweather fight since Cotto.

My biggest take away is that the MMA weight cut does not translate well in boxing. MMA fighters cut anywhere from 7-20 lbs the week of the fight and balloon back up right after weighing in. Freddie Roach mentioned that De La Hoya cut too much weight before the Pacquiao fight and it was going to give him issues

Boxing punches have a different pop compared to MMA punches. The sound is very different.

McGregor has pillow hands in the boxing ring.

Floyd isn't a billionaire, this fight just likely brings him past $1 billion career earnings. Besides MJ and Tiger, Arnold Palmer and Jack Niklaus also has over $1 billion in lifetime earnings since they earned a lot more money after golfing. It's hard to be a billionaire as an athlete unless you have something that just constantly keeps selling for you after your career is over like the Jordan Brand or Arnold Palmers licensing on the drinks etc.

Also, any top-tier boxer in their prime right now would knock Conor out in 2 rounds ... May is washed at 40, no disrespect ...

And it is sad how poor Mayweather is at this point in his career given his earnings ... He basically is a 100 millionaire because of Conor ... His finances relative to where they should be are a joke ...

You know this how? Come on son. stop that.
Take that hating **** elsewhere.

Lol so many combat sports casuals getting exposed in this thread

You gotta stop comparing MMA and boxing rules....let alone technique.

Conor fought with heart, but he got outclassed. There's no moral victories in boxing or MMA. Pay some respect to Pretty Boy Floyd.

 

[PRIME]

Conor coming into the ring thinking he could hang is like a NFL kicker thinking he can take free kicks for a soccer team.

It's a whole different kind of kick b.

And anyonemaking excuses for him needs to wash their face. Exfoliate twice a day.

Cats think just cause they seen Ken beat Balrog in street fighter, **** was going to be sweet.

say what you want about these two but in a job where they risk their lives, they pretty much got money they can set aside for generations if they aren't too wreckless. no need for conor to be fighting into his late 30s or 40s and risk a slurred speech or long term effect that comes with combat sports.

Everyone talking about how Floyd got hit so much, HE DIDNT CARE about getting hit. No philly shell just walking mcgregor down relentlessly after round 3. Guarantee if he was in there with a world class fighter he wouldn't have fought as sloppy. After he realized mcgregor had no power he was smiling the whole time walking through everything. That was literally easy work.

Truth

 

[Xennial]

I mean this was never a real combat sports match that was going to be competititive, this was a spectacle that was as close to WWE as ever. Should've just did the Soulja boy vs Chris Brown event with undercard of The Game vs Meek Mill, Ben Baller vs Fousey

 

[Xennial]

You know his promotions doesn't and never has had the fighters that bring in revenue like that besides himself. The 2 biggest money makers he tried to sign didnt sign with him in Broner and Spence. Gervonta Davis won't be a money maker like that. His promotion is far from a Match Room and doesn't even have 1 big money maker like Golden Boy has in Canelo

lebron going to be in the billion club very soon
various sporsorships, nike, tv, sports agency, possible ownership in teams
from all accounts he surrounds himself with great financial advisors and makes smart decisions. when warren buffett is constantly giving you advice, i wouldn't be surprised if he isn't close to that billion already

If Blaze Pizza has an exit that'll be big for him, also if he keeps growing that media empire. CR7 and Neymar will probably get into the billion dollar club in the future as well

lebron going to be in the billion club very soon
various sporsorships, nike, tv, sports agency, possible ownership in teams

 

[plansb]

If floyd has a billion then AI has at least 100 million
