    It would be so infrequent that if Connor landed a power punch in any given round, it would be 10-9 Connor. Floyd would still win 118-110

      Is that why Diaz was wearing a crimson mask by the end? If Nate didn't have such a iron chin, he would have been down and out from Conor's punches like anyone else. On a technical level, he didn't really "outbox" Conor.

        Ofcourse seeing Floyd against the winner Thurman - Porter would be absolute incredible, but I, as the only one on this site, would actually like to see the fight with McGregor.

          The only reason it can be dangerous is the freak 1 in a billion chance that Conor lands a super power shot with his long ass arms that knocks Floyd out cold, it will not only destroy Boxing credibility as a combat sport because he would have knocked out the best defensive elusive boxer right now but the Floyd fans will commit a mass suicide or just disown Floyd and stop following boxing should Floyd lose to an MMA fighter and white guy who dissed Floyd. Its one thing to lose to a boxer but to an MMA fighter? Any other boxer can lose to a scrub but it wont be a big deal, reason Floyd losing would is because of his ridiculous fan base and his self tooting like he is an infallible unbeatable perfect human being who has his 0.

          When you boast the way Floyd and his fans do that he is the TBE, the fall is going to be worse a million times worse.

          Either way its not credible, its all for money, not legacy

            If this was like Deontay Wilder vs the heavyweight UFC champion in boxing the fight will be good for boxing, and Deontay should gain the support of the fans, but Floyd doing this is not a good look.

              the diaz brothers are slow starter and they always bleed, this means nothing. there hasnt been a fight where both nick and nate is not brusied up. when the "suppose boxer" shoots for a take down = dominated. why else would he shoot for the take down if he wasnt getting dominated on the stand up?

                Because like I said, Diaz had an iron chin, and Conor apparently doesn't. Not saying he's glass-jawed, but the Diaz brothers can take unbelievable damage without going out. Cnor also gassed himself out trying to go for the KO.
