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

[Teetotaler]

McGreggor for the past year along with rhonda was using floyds name in every interview and talking about fighting him so lets not act like floyd started it. Also floyd sold over a mill with ortiz sold about a mill with guerrero and maidana who arent big name ao saying he only sells with big names is dumb.

Haha gtfoh. They were selling millions of ppv against nobodies. They didnt need to mention froid. Basically they were doing him a favor. Also i dont even think the official ppv numbers were released for the maidana guerrero fights. But still didnt even crack a mil. Which is the main goal for the oh so popular froid right?

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.

nobody is saying conor deserve this fight with floyd. i believe they're saying floyd needs to fight a guy like conor in order to make the $100 mil that he wanted, where as conor can continue fighting guys in the ufc and still make the $7 mil that was offer to him. floyd fans in such denial when it comes to floyd. everything has to be about floyd lol.

this coward tapped out against Diaz and Holly Holm went out like a true champion. mayweather beats this idiot from pillar to post in a boxing match.

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?

Apparently the press was a "distraction".. Which he says gave Diaz an advantage in their first fight because he didn't have to focus on press.... since, you know, he was getting wasted in cancun 12 days prior to the fight.

Conor won't make 50 mil in his entire UFC career and he knows it. But this is good promotional talk.

[MisanthropicNY]

Floyd ran and hugged Manny after waiting for Manny to get KO'd first. McGregor moved up to 170 from 145 to fight a very good fighter... Floyd would never take the equivalent challenge in boxing, so these idiots talking about May's resume compared to Conor's are just clueless...

Floyd did nothing offensively against Manny, he fought like a coward..

floyd fans talking about tapping out and praising holly for not tapping and going to sleep instead but then praises floyd for fighting smart talking about boxing is to hit and not get hit. lol

The point isn't who makes more, it's who brings more. McGregor brings more money.

Lol wut. Conor's highest live gate ever is 10 mil. Floyd vs berto which was a flop to most had a live gate of 10 mil. Conor does not bring more than Floyd in any way shape or form

[whatismyname]

Does not deserve? you got Mayweather chasing you, when did Floyd chase fights? Conor is a smart guy he knows Floyd wants him and needs him to make money, so of course he can play hardball.

Why wouldn't you? Floyd did it too you cant blame Conor for doing it, its smart for him to try. Without Floyd he will still earn his 7 million in UFC, Floyd is the one who needs Conor and has been chasing him saying ill only come out for McGregor.

In all fairness, GGG would do the same to Floyd, what Nate did to Connor

[anonymous2.0]

It really feels as if Floyd is doing the UFC a favor by bringing up McGregor. The media is talking about a potential crossover mega fight with Conor instead of Conor tapping out against a 12 day training camp fighter. Even simple rumors are making Conor's stock go up.

Sometimes I don't know if Floyd is doing this on purpose to help Conor or not.
