    You can't eat legacy.

    Floyd gets like $150 million and the haters on here get the thread they've spent every year praying for since Pacquiao invented the sport of boxing.

        It goes down the gurgler, they can never take away what he has done but a loss here would give every hater the ammo to smash him in every debate.

        Floyd is the one that has every thing to lose, nobody will hold anything against Connor for losing, all the pressure is on Floyd to win.

              He was too old. Too out of shape. Etc. Its all happened before more or less.

              Floyd did what he did in his prime. Can't change that. Hell Floyd even did impressive sh^t post-prime & had mfers suggesting his prime was in his mid to late 30's.

              Now granted if he gets KTFO he might have to get a condo next to Michael Spinks in whatever neighborhood he moved to post Tyson KOing him in 90 odd seconds, but Floyd's legacy will stand just like Spinks legacy stands despite an embarrassing L.

              Sh^t ain't that serious.

                Did Spinks' legacy get put down the "gurgler" when Tyson made him piss himself in 1 round? Did SRL's legacy go down the gurgler when trip hammer jabber Hector Camacho soned him in his whatevereth comeback? Did Tyson's legacy go down the gurgler when that McBride guy made him quit in the corner?

                L's happen to almost every boxer in the history of boxing to all sorts of guys they shouldn't have lost to at one time or another. Its not that serious or dramatic a thing. L's happen just like sh^t happens. Can't destroy what you already built.

                  Let's face it Mcgregor has to win by Ko to win this so that looks bad for a start. But none of the guys you mentioned lost to a guy who's never boxed before, despite reports not even as an amateur, and is doing this as an on the side hobby. It'd take alot from Floyds legacy, and send alot of kids to MMA instead of boxing gyms.

                    I dont think it does so much. Will just mesn hes shot. I mean, u can't erase what was done before. It would look very bad but would just mean that he's done and got caught.
