This is bound to be more entertaining than the actual fight itself.

Press conferences will be boring because mayweather doesnt need to act like a clown to sell fights! Thats conor the clowns job ...

The strange thing is, Floyd is the good guy on this fight. McGregor will talk to talk and annihilate Floyd on press con.
I can see Floyd just smile while McGregor acts like 3rd grader.

This should be a fun, entertaining press tour.

Curious to see how it plays out.

This is gonna be fun to watch the whole time or eventually & is probably gonna be the most highlight worthy, YouTube hijacked moments of this whole thing.

Might not wanna peak to soon so they might be casual for this first one since they got a few in a row. Just feel each other out a lil bit, but for sure in the battle of the press conference Conor is levels above Floyd.

Some things I expect during this press tour:

Floyd will use Conor's "red panties night" line against him. For those who don't watch UFC Conor's used that line against UFC opponents in the past as a means to suggest just getting a fight with him is cause for celebration for his opponent. This is the first time Conor has been in a position to be in celebration just for getting a fight & Floyd & his people aren't coming in on all cylinders if they don't use that easy joke to make against him somehow. I'm for sure giving Conor some red panties for his wife if I'm Floyd or doing something like that.

Conor will make fun of Floyd's "stutter", "verbal stumbling" or "inability to get the words out" that Floyd often does more than once & will likely accuse him or being punch drunk or too old or something like that.

Conor will do something, say something or wear something to show a deeper understanding of boxing or appreciation of boxing & its history then most boxing fans will think him capable of like when he wore the Joe Frazier fur coat to the UFC presser.

They will get physical at some point during this press tour, likely early therefore requiring "security" to be put around them for future press conferences & more eyes on future press conferences to get the word out or in the last one to get bump in the media to hype the next thing in the media or just general social media free advertising via shared clips of the incident.

You beat us all to it, hahaha. Way more entertaining. I think the fight will be entertaining though, as entertaining as a beat down can be. Floyd's going to make a statement and show the UFC that boxing is light years ahead of them. He's been trashing them for years and they've talked a lot of crap about him so he won't be happy with an easy decision more than likely he's gonna stop him.

[JK1700]

You guys are right about Floyd not clowning around as much and being more laid back lately, but because it's against the UFC and all i'm hoping and thinking we will get the De La Hoya/Mosley style 24/7 trash talk from Mayweather for this. I think that needs to happen for them to break the PPV record again.
