Comments Thread For: McGregor Dictates To Mayweather: You Need Me, I'm in Control!

they are saying mayweather actually offered 50 million

[ßringer]

Does anybody really believe that two egos this gigantic could ever possibly negotiate together in good faith?

This story is utterly ******ed and it's only being perpetuated by sports media outlets because there's absolutely nothing else to report on. It's never going to happen. Both of them just want the free publicity you're all giving them.

Not even sure why anyone takes this seriously. This farce is so not happening.

Hhaha, it's just a goddamn bluff, conny is just trying to get most of he can. He lost to Nate Diaz and he isn't the same hype job anymore even in UFC.
Connor thinks hes smart but Prettyboy is lauging off his ass i bet

On what planet does Floyd need Conor? Lol

Mayweather called him out Sherlock!

How does a guy with a 0-0 boxing record, who just got his ass handed to him in his own sport mind you, deserve a fight against the best P4P fighter in boxing? I think Floyd is only entertaining this circus show to stay relevant and see if it does garner any interest. Plus it's been McGregor who has been keeping Floyd's name in his mouth for over a year for publicity. Even if McGregor gets a supposed 7 million in his next UFC fight, his days are numbered because quite frankly he isn't a complete MMA fighter and the blueprint is there to beat him.

That's ****ing ******ed-

lol ya right these 2 egos will never be able to sign a fight. mcgregor is just like mayweather in so many ways. he gets fans for the same antics mayweather gets haters for which i find rather funny but anyone who cant see mcgregor is using mayweathers play book they are blind. I got admit tho id like to see them box eachother. the way i see it why the hell not whats the big deal

Nothing! Only big babies complain about that fight. A fights a fight.

Did mcregor ever have 4.5 mil PPV buys ? NO. hes the B side and needs to face it. Floyd can fight danny garcia and make more money than conor would in his next fight. Dana gets most of conors money anyway.

His PPV numbers are very good in relation to the sport he's in. It's not like Mayweather's PPV numbers are consistently multi million buys. He's usually around the 1 million mark, which is the same as McGregor's last fights. Add to that, he's done more than 10 million at the live gate which is competitive with or beats the vast majority of Mayweather's fights. Even though he also beats that multiple times of course.

And nobody knew who the hell he was 3 years ago. His curve to that kind of money simply craps over Mayweather's.

This is what I'm saying. Didn't even attempt to go into a half-guard off his back and work something out... Just completely shut down.

He knew if he stayed upright he was going to get knocked out so he made the decision to submit on the floor instead. Whilst on the undercard Holm allowed herself to be choked unconscious rather than tap because the fighter in her told her there was still a chance she could fight on.

He needs to redeem himself against Diaz. And he had the opportunity. And he pulled out. What was his official reason? I may be wrong but wasn't it that he felt talking to the press was too much for him to handle?

It's not just that it's a big Money fight. I don't think that's what motivates Floyd.

He can generate big Money fights against other boxers as well, but those are more risky fights. Clearly, Floyd is done with taking anymore risks at the age of 40.

But fighting opponents who are not in the sport of Boxing doesn't seem to be a risk to him. Which is correct. If McGregor can't kick and he can't slam his ass on the ground, he is harmless and will get boxed and elbowed during the clinches, on to a unanimous decision, if not a TKO.

Mayweather will win but Conner is not "harmless." McGregor has very fast hands and I can see him landing punches on Mayweather's 40-year-old big black bald head. He's younger and confident. The way he throws his left hand is dangerous for any human being, mayweather or not.
