Comments Thread For: McGregor Feels Ali Act Can Prevent UFC Blocking Mayweather Deal

[RedZmaja]

But if McGregor tried to go ahead without Dana, I suspect Dana would try to get an injunction blocking the fight, same as King did to prevent Mayorga from fighting in an MMA match.....

Mayorga did fight in MMA eventually.

As many ppl said , its a circus fight , but whats wrong with watching the best circus in the world ? its going to be an EPIC event and an even better run up to the fight , we will get the best press conferences (if you never seen McG in those you gonna laugh your ass off) we get to watch an amazing weigh in , and we are going to get to put sherdog (and the rest of the MMA world) on their knees and acknowledge (they dont , just so you know) that boxing is a different level to stand up striking of the MMA (they actually believe that it can be competitive , not the McG haters they hate everything about him , but the rest) , seeing Dana sitting there on the post fight press conference will be glorious , why everyone are so butthurt about it ? jesus ..... the "i won't pay 5$" for it club needs to chill , some pp have disposable income , and we can spend it as we wish , it will be a great event with great aftermath results for boxing vs MMA , and as some of you dont have MMA fans as friends ( i do , too many) you dont have to put up with their bull**** of the MMA master race , we can beat you at everything , they ACTUALLY THINK IT WILL BE COMPETITIVE!!! **** THIS BOYCOTT **** , GOING TO BUY IT , INVITE EVERY MMA FAN I KNOW , ORDER PIZZA AND LET THEM CHOCKE ON IT , only thing im worried about is floyd getting extra 50mil to throw the fight (or make it competitive) , if he does UFC actually crushes boxing for the next 50 years in one evening as they will claim (and rightfully) that they are superior as an ATG couldn't be an MMA fighter in boxing.

McGregor will gasp out early and Floyd will finish him off with a KO.

I agree and am having a hard time figuring out what he thinks might be an Ali Act violation. This would simply be a contract dispute.

99% of boxers and UFC fighters have in their contracts a provision that basically says they will not compete in any combat related events without the expressed written consent of their promoter. Period. And some of those provisions extend to exhibition matches, and even sparring. So Im not seeing what it has to do with the Ali Act.

It would be a rude wakeup call for McGregor to hop into a boxing ring with one of the slickest defensive boxers of recent times
Floyd will figure him out fast and send him back to the sport he belongs in

And that's no disrespect to McGregor, he's a class mma fighter
But floyd will have him reaching, missing, gasping, flinching etc
It's actually a tad arrogant. It's like floyd heading over to the ufc and taking on conor
Floyd would be made to look silly in a grapple (prob get tapped out in the first)
The whole thing is ******ed

yes, after he made a deal with Don and gave him a taste.......

this is more than a pay day. conor is the closest to being an American. a white boy.


Floyd would want nothing more than to whoop on this white boy for all the press and hype that he's gotten just because he's white.

Ah, you mad that a white man is the biggest name in all of combat sports instead of one of your black heroes? There there... It'll be alright.

mad? im not even black dummy lol

I was just stating my reasons as to why Floyd is really pushing for this fight. because it would be the icing on the cake for Floyd to knock out conor, which is the closest thing to being a white American that is getting all this hype around him because of his skin color. Floyd has mention this in the past.

He's not getting hype around him because he's white; That's an extremely narrow-minded point of view that only the biggest simpletons possess. He's getting hype around him because he's a phenomenial talent, backs up what he says, and has the coveted "It" factor that we all value in the most charismatic of performers/entertainers.This really isn't open for debate in the least.

he's getting the extra press because of his skin color. same thing that happen with ronda. Floyd has been vocal about this in the past.

Floyd said the only reason why they're getting this much attention is because of their skin color. so yes, I believe Floyd wanted this fight for that same reason, so he can shut all the media and press up for hyping conor up the way he's been hyped up.
