How long does McGreggor last Vs 29 year old Mayweather?

Depends if Floyd turns up before the fourth round this time.

In awkwardness? Yes. I think one could probably argue Conor is even more awkward & unpredictable than Augustus although I'll just stick with similarly awkward. Augustus could punch though...Augustus got ripped off MANY times, a great fighter who never gets his due credit, McGregor is simply a joke.

I'd say he's not KO'd anyone THAT awkward + big quick. Look at all the problems Emanuel Augustus gave him & Augustus didn't even throw one hammer punch. For awhile that was Floyd's toughest fight. Are you really comparing Augustus to mctapout???

He fights at 145lbs in ufc so yeah. Yeah, but he hasn't made that for a while...he'll fight at 155 from now on

I'd say he's not KO'd anyone THAT awkward + big quick. Look at all the problems Emanuel Augustus gave him & Augustus didn't even throw one hammer punch. For awhile that was Floyd's toughest fight. I put that down more to the lay off and the fact he wasn't in shape (134 lbs). He hasn't, but again, McGregor can't box, prime Floyd goes right through him. All that bulk he carries just get's him tired quicker.

I mighta got on a rant with that response. The Conor stuff was the main point along with Floyd's historic strategy in a fight. When did Floyd ever KO a guy who outweighed him by 20lbs at any age regardless of skill level? The awkwardness of Conor is just another degree of difficulty with taking him out quick. And its not like Conor wasn't athletic or quick himself which wouldn't make taking him out super early any easier for young Floyd. Fair play on 6-8 rounds, but 3 rounds I don't see for what would be in front of Floyd. He never has but he's also never fought anyone as usless as McGregor. No way in hell does he go 6. I can't fathom the thought of that possibility.

2 rounds at most tbh

Like I said you are the smartest dumb guy on this forum. And I'm not talking about a 40 year old Floyd. Holy sh^t man do you get SSI but read alot or something? You aren't talking about a 40 year old Floyd? So why did you say you were when you brought up those 50 bullet points? And 3 or 4 guys said 4 rounds, but I'm tired of quoting & I said 3 rounds specifically even though I think 4 rounds is more or less in the same ballpark of nuttiness. Hatton & Sharmba where both smaller guys who moved up like Floyd. Ortiz is the only legit 147lber who Floyd KO'd & I think we all agree that wasn't realllllly a legit KO, but protect yourself at all times & all that obviously. Conor is probably a legit 154lber more than a 147lber cuz he used to look like death making that weight. But regardless he's a bigger mfer & the biggest mfer Floyd has ever KO'd. Right because they are talking about a 29 year old Floyd. No one is claiming Floyd is a Mike Tyson esque aggressive KO puncher at age 29. You have formed that conclusion for other people yourself. People are claiming a 29 year old Floyd could take out Conor quickly because Conor is dog**** when it comes to Boxing. The fact Sharmba Mitchell is smaller than Conor is irrelevant. He's on a different straosphere to him in regards to Boxing and Floyd took him out in 6. It's totally logical to think that same person can take McGregor out in half that time. Which was my original response in the first place to which you starting talking about the fact he's 40 and what not. But now you are saying you aren't saying that so I'm lost at this point as to what your point even is.

Pretty Boy Floyd gives McGregor another Mercy stoppage by the ref in 6 or drops him hard and the ref calls it off after taking a beating! Folks don't understand, that was Mayweather with less wear and tear on his hands! He started wearing orthopedic gloves around 30-31 to keep his career going or his hand problems would've ended his career!

Cmon on man really lol. You are a dense ass smart guy you know that right? Do you not see how this could be directed at the dipsh^ts who think Floyd was Tysoning fools in 3 rounds or less like some cats were saying in this very thread before my post? What I said in my post has been Floyd's style since he got to the elite level of opposition. He's been doing that since his mid 20's til Saturday. And some cats were saying Floyd would KO Conor in 1 like they've never even seen Floyd fight before. :thinking: So what you are saying is your post in this thread, about how a 29 year old Floyd would fair against McGregor, was in response to what people said about how a 40 year old Floyd would fair against McGregor? No I can't see that. Who in this thread said that a 40 year old Floyd would knock McGregor out in 3 rounds? We know what a 40 old Floyd does to McGregor it just happened 3 days ago. You seem seriously confused.

Mayweather takes his time with you, I know he destroyed Gatti but he was 28 and at 140 and really really hungry at that point. I know he has zero respect for Connor but i still feel he would take his time and probably stop Connor around the 8th round.

You know I'm arguing with the guys who are saying Floyd KO's Conor in 3 or less rounds at any age? Thats who my comment was directed at & you responded to me for some reason. You are? So why is your first post that I responded to this; Have some of you cats even seen Floyd fight before or do you just not respect Conor? Cuz you know Floyd hasn't KO'd anyone in 3 rounds or less since Angel Mandredy in 1998 for mfing sakes lmfao. Floyd isn't Tyson you dipsh^ts. Floyd figures you out & takes you out in the mid rounds or 11-1's, 10-2's you. Who are you responding to with this post because I'm pretty sure everyone in the thread is talking about a 29 year old Floyd. You know, the thread topic.

Who's arguing with that then lol? I'm arguing with the dummies who are saying Floyd KO's Conor in 3 or less like some dummies have been suggesting. Still lost. You know this thread is asking what a 29 year old Floyd does to Conor?

I'm seeing a few people suggesting Floyd shoulda gotten Conor out of there quick. Floyd hadn't gotten guys out of there quick since his first & second year into his pro career when he was fast, offensive minded & punched harder vs smaller guys (130lbs). He's 20 odd years into his career now, he's drastically toned down his offense, he's not as fast & his hands are f#cked + is fighting bigger guys at 154lbs. I understand the logic solely because Conor is one of the worst boxers he's ever fought so perhaps he could have got him out of there earlier. But he's 40. You know this thread is about a 29 year old Floyd vs McGregor right?

You keep ignoring what this fight actually included doe. Floyd isn't a video game character that stays at the same level & never ages. And there are different variables in play in different fights. Sharmba doesn't = Conor or vice versa. Each guy has specific problems to be solved to defeat them. Things to take into account that I don't believe you or some of the guys thinking like you are taking into account. -Floyd is 40 years old, most of the great fighters we talk about were shot at 35 or younger -Floyd hadn't fought in 2 years, thats a long ass time to expect someone to just hope in the ring & be their old self -Floyd allegedly hadn't even sparred in the last month to insure his hands were as good as possible -Conor is a big fooker, probably the biggest fooker Floyd has been in the ring with in a pro fight (170ish lbs) -Conor is an awkward guy who was doing a lot of weird sh^t, for sure Floyd got hit with more hammer punches Saturday then in the rest of his career combined + got his "back taken" more times than in his entire career combined I'd assume -Conor was a decade younger than Floyd -Conor was expected to be heavy handed so some safety first approach was to be expected -Floyd's approach in the ring for the last several years has been to figure guys out & give up rounds early to "solve your style" & win the last half & more of the fight wide which is exactly what he did -Floyd can't hit for sh^t, he's 15-0 (3) at 147lbs or more. The only guys he KO'd at 147 or above before Saturday was Sharmba (12 years ago when he was 28yrs), Hatton (10 years ago when he was 30yrs) & if you really want to count it Ortiz (6yrs ago at 34yrs). And he also, eventually, KO'd Conor which was his 4th KO in 16 fights over 12 years. So basically I think you guys are overestimating who 40 year old Floyd is, ignoring Floyd's strategy over the later years of his career + acting like cuz Conor had a low boxing IQ his size & awkwardness didn't put forth some potential for error on Floyd's side if he just tried to chop down Conor or whatever you guys wanted Floyd to do in a very un-Floyd-like way. I seriously do not understand your post. I am aware of all of the above and the fact that all the above is true and Floyd still walked in down, battered him and stopped him tells me that a 11 year younger version of Floyd would do the job a lot quicker. Yeah I know Sharmba Mitchell isn't McGregor, he's about 20 levels above McGregor even that past it version and the fact Floyd stopped him in 6 tells me it's very easy to see a scenario where he stops McGregor in half that time.

Mayweather KO inside 6

Styles make fights. If Floyd fought Conor like he fought Berto Conor does fook all over 12 rounds. If Floyd fought Berto like he did Conor Berto might have actually had a chance in hell of winning & certainly woulda had a highlight reel to put together from that fight from the successes he had even coming up short. A younger Floyd is for sure faster & that may have played a difference in a earlier stoppage. And I mean that seemed to be the plan as Floyd himself said the plan was to take Conor apart over 6 or 7 rounds & cuz Conor was better than expected 3 or 4 rounds got tacted on extra. \ I don't really disagree younger Floyd makes quicker work of Conor. I mainly got issues with people acting like Floyd is KOing guys left & right early like he's mini Tyson or something. Floyd was never that guy. Who said that? I don't see anyone saying that. Quote it. People are saying prime Floyd would stop McGregor early because McGregor is terrible and can't box. If a 40 year old Floyd just walked through him and stopped him with that little respect then what is a 29 year old Floyd going to do? A way faster job that's what.

Have some of you cats even seen Floyd fight before or do you just not respect Conor? Cuz you know Floyd hasn't KO'd anyone in 3 rounds or less since Angel Mandredy in 1998 for mfing sakes lmfao. Floyd isn't Tyson you dipsh^ts. Floyd figures you out & takes you out in the mid rounds or 11-1's, 10-2's you. Well Angel Manfredy is 10 times the fighter McGregor is for starters Secondly, if Mayweather at that age can take out Sharmba Mitchell in 6 rounds then I'm very sure he can take out McGregor in half that time.

You're talking about Marco Ruas who was one of the VERY few and arguably the first guy who competed in the UFC who actually did more than one thing well. It was cool at first, I get the appeal but you get to a point where it's just sloppy and dirty as ****. I prefer the PRIDE FC rules to the unified rules that we have today which recently were changed for the better too (that touching the mat thing doesn't class you as a downed opponent anymore). I'm not only talking about Tank Abbott there were quite a few guys who competed that were Tank Abbott-esque. You had mofos fighting who looked like they thought they were competing in a Street of Rage tournament in real life (Megadrive game). Im still waiting for this long list of fat beer drinkers I'm supposed to like. Dan Severn, fat beer drinker? Mark Coleman? Vitor Belfort? Ken Shamrock? Gary Goodridge? And I liked the "street of rage" look... the karate guy showing up in his gi to fight the wrestler in his singlet. I much prefer that to both guys looking exactly alike in skin tight booty shorts. Bottom line for me is that the UFC truly started off "as real as it gets" and is no longer that way
