    lol at comparing Connor Mcgregor to Mike Tyson

    Mike Tyson would knock Michael Spinks at any point in Spinks career. If Floyd loses it hurts his legacy for sure, definitely cant cling to self proclaimed undefeated best P4P fighter of all time BS either.

        Nobody should even care about Floyd's legacy if somehow someway the absolutely unthinkable happened and Floyd lost.

        The infinitely more important question should be what happens to boxing if McGregor won.

        If McGregor won it would be like that 6 mile long asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs, except boxing would be the dinosaurs and the asteroid would be a McGregor win

        Boxing would be f**king dead

          to lose to someone who is 0-0 in boxing would be a serious damage to his legacy.

It'd take alot from Floyds legacy, and send alot of kids to MMA instead of boxing gyms.
            So boxers can only lose the respect of their accomplishments if they lose to a non-boxer? Does that also destroy the legacy's of guys Floy beat since while in this speculative discussion he's caught an L to Conor, but he's beaten everyone else up til now? So a Floyd L to Conor f#cks up Floyd's & Manny's legacy's to some degree?

            I don't agree with the premise one can even lose the respect of their accomplishments via a future L after who've accomplished whatever you've accomplished.

            And kids are already going to MMA gyms. I live in a fairly large metro area & there are roughly twice as many MMA gyms as boxing gyms.

                It would be just as meaningful as Ali's loss to Berbick, Tyson's loss to McBride, Wlad's loss to Joshua, Leonard's loss to Camacho, Jones Jr loss to Maccarinelli, Chavez Jr's loss to Wiley, Holyfield's loss to Donald, Hearns loss to Grant etc, etc

                  Nah. These guys all lost to pro boxers. Conor is a MMA fighter who has never had a pro fight in his entire life. Losing to Conor would definitely hurt his legacy and it will make boxing look really bad.

                  It's not going to happen tho....
