What IF McGregor wins?

this place will go full ****** and when that gets REALLY bad, the MMA fans will invade

i guess floyd could break his hand or injure himself. he's not going to lose because he's getting beat up. mcgregor is just young. that's it. floyd would need to be a hell of a lot older to lose to a complete novice just becuase he is young. you'll find better boxers competing in the local golden gloves. that's just a fact. you can watch mcgregor spar or hit the bag if you don't believe me. no feints, no head movement, no angles, no subtleties, and even no snap on his shots. he is not a boxer. he just moves his arms.


mcgregor is going to look like the novice he is.


however, if he does win, it's the biggest black eye on the sport in a long, long time. biggest upset of all time, will make buster douglas look like an ant hill next to a mountain.

Slight bit of difference between a fight, and a vote.

not really. the judges "vote" for the winner and its often mind boggling the result they come up. kovalev won the fight yet they "voted" for ward in stunning fashion in roundsl ike round 10. maybe conor can steal a decision like that. its all about popularity/reputation/corruption. the actual fight is almost meaningless unless someone gets kod cold

That's exactly what I was thinking.

You know those twits over on the MMA forums will invade this place.

Boxingscene might crash for a month.

MMA trolls will be joining NSB.

Not gonna happen, doesn't need to even be considered.

McGregor will, at-best, make it an ugly wrestling match or a track meet/paw fest for a while.

If Conor wins he comes over to boxing full time. UFC loses their biggest ever star. So in reality boxing will win even if Conor does win.

If McGregor beat Floyd I see the boxing world imploding.

I'm not saying its not about that to some people. I think the overwhelming majority of the people showing interest in this fight have a skewed opinion of what its about & yea a good clip if not most of them probably do think its boxing vs MMA. So I guess if we are going by the theory of perception creates our reality you are right.

But I'd say thats not my perception. To me this is this guy vs that guy just like every other fight is at the end of the day. There is no boxing vs MMA, there is no Mexican guy, PRican guy, Russian guy, African guy, White guy or black guy. There is just two mfers hitting each other in the head trying to find out who's better. Thats what boxing is about to me.

Well you can think like that personally and it's fine. But I was talking on a larger scope.

I'm with you. The win is almost impossible but I was playing hypothetical lol
