Comments Thread For: Floyd Mayweather vs. Conor McGregor: That's Boxing

[BillyBoxing]

This is a great fight with undefeated boxers battling it out - someone's 0 has to go to go!

The press conferences alone between these two will be more exciting than 99% of the boxing matches made today.

Not sure why the media is trying to take money out of Floyd's children and Conor's child's mouths...

Conor is better than Horn that's for sure. I'd take Conor over Horn right now easy.

Nope, Connor is getting outboxed by contenders in sparring with worst ranking than that Horn guy.

Chavez sr went 90-0 about before first loss with many hall of famers up to that point ray Robinson like 100 so if they retired 90-0 for low they would be the goat by mayweather Meter. And no one woukd ever touch 90-0 today fighting twice a year

Guys like Archie Moore fought twice a month!

That's how they learned every trick in the book Lemieux couldn't block slip duck catch one jab from GGG there are like 7 ways to deal with a jab not taught 1 old days foundation first if not you were out

ever since ODH wrote that BS facebook status update, I want this to go down more than ever. On the same day as Canelo-GGG too. Boxing nerds overreacting big time to this but whats new

Horn would piece up Conor easily. Horn is only +450 against PacMAn, Conor is 10-1 dog vs Floyd. Horn is better than Van Heerden and Van Heerden was piecing up Conor in sparring easily..

Just heard Floyd reserved the MGM grand for August 26th. Sounds like this fight is happening thought I wish Connor would fight the iron in the UFC .

[SUBZER0ED]

Oh, BULLSHIT!! This is nothing more than a cheap way for Mayweather to get #50, with minimum risk for maximum dollars. To say that his fighting a MMA fighter is more feasible than facing ANY of the top fighters within the range of his weight class is a lie, plain & simple. He's an egotistical, money-grabbing coward & anyone ****** enough to line his pockets yet again for a crap fight will get what they deserve.

You're hilarious. Chavez Sr. was an all-time great, but let's not exaggerate the quality of his opposition.

Chavez Sr.'s record was NOT filled with Hall of Famers and had more B.S. padding than virtually any other modern boxer.

In Sr.'s 18th fight (at 18-0), he fought with a guy with a record of 0 wins and 7 losses. 18-0 versus 0-7.

In Sr.'s 23rd fight, he fought a guy with a record of 0-1.
In Sr.'s 24th fight, he fought a guy with a record of 0-1.
In Sr.'s 25th fight, he fought a guy with a record of 1-6.
In Sr.'s 26th fight, he fought a guy with a record of 2-3-2.

In Sr.'s 35th fight, he fought a guy with a record of 1-1.
In Sr.'s 37th fight, he fought a guy with a record of 0-2.
In Sr.'s 41st fight, he fought a guy making his PRO DEBUT.
And in his 50th fight, he fought a guy with a record of 1 win and FIFTEEN losses. That's 50-0 vs 1-15. That's embarrassingly bad...criminal even.

In his first 90 fights, Chavez Sr. fought THREE Hall of Famers: Meldrick Taylor, Hector Camacho and Pernell Whitaker.

In 49 fights, Mayweather fought at least SIX Hall of Famers (De La Hoya, Gatti, Pacquiao, Mosley, Cotto, Marquez) - and that doesn't include Canelo (very likely to be HOF), Hatton (maybe) or Corrales (long shot).

So tell me again how Chavez Sr.'s record was so impressive?
