Comments Thread For: McGregor Sparring Partner Says Floyd Bout is No Mismatch

[Elroy The Great]

funny thing is, mays sparring partners could fnck up mcbeggar and do it for much less.

[The Ninth Layer]

Wait he's using an mma fighter as a sparring partner? Good lord. He prob knows a real boxer will punish him

This is funnier to find out than seeing people on reddit or whatever claim he's a great boxer because "he's punched out MMA fighters with really good defense."

LOL okay BPP up in here trolling now wtf.

Artem Lobov isn't McGregor's "sparing partner" so much as his f#cking butler damn near. McGregor helped him get into the UFC despite having a garbage record over nobodies & even got him to headline a f#cking UFC (not a PPV, but one of those Fight Pass or Fox Sport 1 events) where he got his ass beat the f#ck up & down for 25 minutes. Lobov owes his whole career turnaround to being down with SBG, Conor's team.

Lobov saying this would be like J'Leon Love saying Floyd KO's Joshua in 2.

McGregor is better than pacquaio. You heard it here first.

Maybe not skill wise but at least McGregor has confidence in himself and won't go into the match defeated

Unlike Pacquiao who knew he would lose beforehand - as it was Gods plan that would lead him to discover Holly Salt Water.

And randomly he's one of the most made fun of guys in the UFC at the moment. People accuse him of having T-Rex arms & do Who Win assessments with him vs female UFC fighters.

I keep saying it every time one of these circus related articles come up. They will march everyone even Mayweather's family to say how close and how much this is not a mismatch like we're frikking ******. Stop trying to jedi mind trick us that **** don't work and it's played out.

It's gonna be be funny as **** if Conor wins using Ward's Fouling Style

Conor after last night should force NSAC and all these ****ers who champion ward's style to cry and whine when it happens to them.

Conor won't, but he should. Ward headbutts, grappled, throws elbows, low blows repeatedly.

It'd just be funny as shiiiit

[Lemonhead_Jeff]

His Sparring partner, Artem Lobov, is a MMA fighter, not a boxer. What good is his assessment of Floyd's chances!?

[Kris Silver]

He seriously needs better sparring than a medioke UFC pal in Artem Lobov.

It's one thing McGregor isn't assigning a boxing coach but this adds worry that he really is underrating how he simply needs top level boxing staff and boxers around him.

Lobov has built his MMA career off McGregors name, you may as well be interviewing his mom and dad.
