Boxing almost seems boring to me now in comparison. I am trying hard to stay interested in boxing now but my interest is shifting.
    Are there are Koreans in UFC for you to support though? GGG would be ashamed.

      I never thought Meisha Tate was going to pull it off. It was a good night for MMA.
      He tried and failed. Largely because he lacked a smart game plan against a bigger dude. And largely because he lacked the level of boxing skills that a guy like Floyd has so much of.

      All good, but I wonder if he is going to return to disrespecting Floyd. Why does he bother???

        Imagine Floyd or Pacquiao losing to Carlos Molina. Just imagine.
        Let floyd and his opponent wear 4oz gloves, kicks, and if you get dropped, the guy can jump on you and beat your ass.. Floyd could have easily been ko'd by chop chop Corley if 4oz gloves were being used

        Them 4oz gloves, it's nearly impossible to have a great chin..

        Diaz may never be a champion, but dude is a legit world class mma fighter..

        Conor got too overconfident, got tagged on the chin, didn't recover, got choked out...

          People would pay for it. Shit I'd pay for it just to see one of them get their ass kicked. Win/Win for me.

            The 4oz glove excuse is kinda weak. Floyd is an expert at boxing. He mastered that art. There are UFC fighters that have never been koed or would never be hit like that. GSP for one, he mastered his sport. Connor wasn't a master. He talked the talk and dropped the ball. Good fighter nowhere near as great as people were really beginning to believe.

                So you're trying to subject a pro BOXER to UFC rules, why?

                A boxer like Floyd has mastered his sport and would never lose to a Carlos Molina type of opponent.

                The difference is McGregor didn't master his sport and get clowned on by a gatekeeper.

Even though he lost, it was two of the most exciting rounds of fighting ever!!!

                  In the co main event we had Holly Holms getting submitted by Miesha tate...the former champ fighting a top 2 contender in her weigh division...sigh...

                  Shame on you boxing...we had champ and contenders fighting tuneups after another....
                  He's not even rated at 170. He's a borderline top 5 lightweight. He had a few fights at 170, but being rag dolled by rory macdonald put an end to that.

                      I'm just saying there is so many different ways to lose in mma that it's hard to think anyone could be 49-0 like floyd...

                      In boxing, all you gotta do is outbox a guy..

                      Mma, you got so many different elements, even if your world class in certain aspects, too many random things can happen...
