    Conor is a bad matchup for TBE. Conor would straight up punch a hole through TBE's shoulder roll. TBE has the heart and mind of a warrior but that shoulder can't take the abuse Conor would dish out.

      Floyd has a better chance of KOing Conor in MMA then Conor does of KOing Floyd in boxing.
      Agreed. While it goes both ways in boxing and MMA, Conor definitely is a fanboy of boxers. People try to make MMA as it's own established style and craft but the reality is the crafts and styles from other combat sports. I've heard that Conor watches a lot of boxing training videos (Eubank Jr, Kell Brook). In his defense, sure it would be ****** not to be always learning. But honestly I see him as a model for UFC greats where he is a product of the vast knowledge the sweet science displays in its long history.
      If this fight happens in a real competitive environment where Conor is considered a true competitor to dethrone him, then I see Floyd getting him out of there. Conor would get completely exposed and given his relentless instincts, would ultimately get caught with speed/precision doing him in. I just picture him getting knocked down numerous times.
      If the fight will be like someone else said...like a New Years eve showcase fight then I see Floyd toying with him. Exposing him and having fun like he did with Berto but not in the mindset to destroy. Personally I think Floyd has too much sympathy for his opponents and their career. Probably because he has lived at the top of the sport for so long. It's not so much that Floyd doesn't want the risk of being more offensive in recent years but more that when he has you figured out the fight is over. Going the extra mile to take you out isn't necessary and I guess immoral. I saw this starting with his fight with Shane.

        Oh god TBE dun goofed. He don't need this no more. Sometimes when your warrior spirit is as powerful as TBE's is you have to be protected from yourself.

          A lot of people don't realize that Conor is UNDEFEATED in boxing. This is what everyone has been calling for, for Floyd to fight an undefeated fighter and it's finally happening.
