CONOR McGregor was all smiles despite coming up short via technical knockout against Floyd Mayweather on his boxing debut last night. The Irishman was stopped in the 10th by 40-year-old Mayweather after a spirited performance that saw him take the early rounds. But as the fight wore on, Mayweather's superior boxing ability shone through. Click Here To Read More]
nah, Paulie was there for more than just stamina. They wanted someone fast with movement so Conor could get used to making that kind of fighter uncomfortable.
Paulie's was "fast" with movement years ago. He retired because he got slow and flat footed. I guess Conor hired his reputation.
I like that guy a lot after last night. He's a true fighter and honest competitor. He gave a fair assessment of what happened. So many of Floyd's opponents say completely stupid things after fights and make excuses. He's a true fighter in my book. Not a boxer per se, but a fighter nonetheless
I told my homie the same thing. Lol
I was skeptical before but I'm now pretty convinced, mcgregor was likely punishing Malignaggi in sparring. His size advantage on Floyd and ability to counter was MUCH better than I expected.
I also told my homie(UFC fanatic) the same thing lol.
Of course they made peace, they fooled people into paying $100 and now they both are gonna laugh about it while sipping on whiskey in St Tropez, Fr.
Most people are sheep and will always be that way while others take advantage of it. Glad I watched the fight for free on Russian channel.
In terms of the actual fight, it was a sparring match in which Floyd agreed didn't do s.it in the first rounds.
To bad, Irish folks paid $500+ to watch this circus at arena
Who wouldn't be smiling after making that kind of money for what looked a bit like a sparring match. Conor seems a bit too pleased even in defeat after saying he'd destroy Floyd inside four rounds, but that shows all the hype to sell the fight. He convinced me. Funny thing, there was no such hype for the best fights in history but they delivered far better than what we see today. The golden era of boxing has been finished for a number of years already, but we still love the sport.
You are missing the point. Paulie wasn't there to compete he was supposed to help him with his stamina doing round work. Paulie is done, roughing him up was stupid. nah, Paulie was there for more than just stamina.
