Comments Thread For: Photos: Mayweather, McGregor - HUGE LA Conference Gallery

[El Gitano]

Anyone else notice McGregor's "stripped" suit says "**** You"?

They're pretty close to the same height. Conor just had those high heels on with the suit. I think he also saw today Mayweather isn't afraid of him, not in a boxing match at least. There were moments when Floyd was talking (for nearly 10 minutes lol) and you could tell the highlight reel was starting to kick in on Conor's face. He looked a little nervous at times with the gum chomping and was making some faces you don't normally see Conor make at fight buildups. I don't think he's afraid of Floyd in the slightest, but I do think he's starting to understand what this fight is going to be like. Another concern was how big McGregor looked. Floyd is probably about 152...151 there. Conor looked about 170 and is going to be cutting a lot more weight and I know he does it a lot, but a month out is hard work and could be a crappy rehydration.

McGregor's head looks enormous compared to Floyd's.

McGregor fans were certain Conor was going to win the press conferences but it seemed like Floyd took the first one.

But Honestly, the entire conference was garbage.

canelo vs chavez and canelo vs ggg conferences were garbage mexican trash!

Mcgregor was doing a ton of acting and looked shook. He was macking on that gum and swaying all over the place.

Floyd was bored and going through the motions, definitely looked like the older man as he is.

Mcgregor even said: "This boxing press conference is a completely different setup than I'm used to..."

Just wait until he gets in the ring

hahah man i was thinking the exact same thing! he has no idea how fast those straight right hands are going to be landing on his face! floyds body shots are very solid as well!

exactly! He didnt realize floyd would do that much smack talking hahaha! He looked surprised and annoyed! Even backstage he looked soo happy like his life changed from a lotto! He knows this is a life changing event so he is going along for the ride! He is getting paid more than most boxers did! He will make more than even manny did i think!

Conor McGregor's first press conference was in front of the size of a crowd that comes to see him on fight night.

Not sure about you, but even a confident person would get shook seeing that.

Floyd changes lives; outside of Canelo and Cotto, after fighting Floyd, opponents openly re-consider giving the sport of boxing another minute of their lives.

Maybe he thought about it before, but it seemed like walking out on that stage was finally settling in the magnitude of the opportunity.

McGregor Sports & Entertainment on the promotional banner, a packed Staples Center cheering his every moment, and a guaranteed check that achieves every ambition that he ever had for his family when they were grinding on the welfare rolls (his guarantee likely tops anything he's ever made in UFC, with Conor, himself, saying that he's looking at his own $100m if the fight gets to Mayweather-Pacquiao numbers).

The fight will be the fight, but having that set in on the actual stage is downright overwhelming.

That was pretty nice of Floyd to wear his Manny Pacquiao hat.

canelo vs chavez and canelo vs ggg conferences were garbage mexican trash!

I don't know, I didn't watch them. I don't care about press conferences like so many seem to do, lol.
