    Hes been knocking people out since he got in the game and his KO rate is over 80%.

    How mant actual boxers has he knocked out? I dont care about chit tier mma fighters.

      the aldo fight has given the illusion he has some monster power sure he has decent power but it aint touch ppl and they go to sleep power
      To be fair, i rarely take some fighters word as Gospel.

      Curtis Stevens tried to say he didn't rate GGG's power...

        I don't think Floyd's worried but the size difference is huge.

            What is the specific news of the gloves?
            Conor was saying they want 10 oz gloves i have no problem then they say no Mexican or horse hair gloves he also doesn't have a problem with that.

            Floyd then said he would fight with 4oz if Conor wants or in mma lol.

              Floyd got subjected to that with Oscar. Then he did it to everyone he's had the opportunity. There's an element of gamesmanship to this stuff clearly.

              If Floyd was smart he would have let Conor use the little gloves. It would have generated more everything had they done that.

                  Yes, Floyd fears the inevitable TKO4. He's trying to dampen the beating McGregor is going put on him.

                    looking at mcgreggor fighting stand up in mma isnt a good predictor. its stand up, its not boxing.

                    Now the funny thing is, from all of the boxing sparring ive seen of mcgreggor, he uses almost the same stance when boxing, he looks like hes ****ing fencing or just came out of the 1890s barenuckle era. People pointed out that hes still staying low like he would in mma to resist take downs. His habits are already set, the guy cant box for **** and that isnt really his fault. you cant learn to box at even a B level in the year hes been considering this fight. he looks like complete chit against the C level no name guys he spars.

                      theres no they or want.

                      its required by the NSAC. They could wear 8 oz at 147 and then guess what, everyone would by crying that floyd drained him.
