Comments Thread For: McGregor: Mayweather Wanted 154 To Use 10-Ounce Gloves!

[aboutfkntime]

This is what I think, pro boxers have to build up to 12 rounds over a couple of years, only a select few like Loma and Rigo could jump straight into 12 rounders and that's after 400 amateur fights. I highly doubt McGregor can jump straight into a 12 rounder effectively despite his MMA background, they're two different sports. If Mayweather can stay sharp for 12 rounds to even half of the level he could against Berto then McGregor is in for a rude awakening, literally his only chance is a lucky punch.

exactly

also, how did Loma look his first time going 12 HARD rounds ?

Conor will blow his load, NO question..... I don't see how he can possibly last 12..... and we all saw what happened when he blew his load against Diaz in the first fight..... he shot on Diaz out of desperation, meaning that he was done

"McGregor, meanwhile, fought as high as 170 pounds (welterweight in MMA) and as low as 155 pounds (lightweight in MMA) in 2016."


I doubt Connor would even agree to 147 and if he did then he would just blame the loss on being drained and claimed Mayweather drained him because hes a chicken blah blah blah.

Mayweather fights him at a weight that benefits him but thats now spinned into mayweather is afraid of an 0-0 boxer and demands they wear 10 oz gloves.

for those who don't want to pay for this fight.....

this is LITERALLY what will happen to McGregor.....

He doesn't have a "little GGG in him". He can't box at all. He's a good striker in MMA because he's weird as hell and there are so many styles/variables in an MMA fight that it catches his opponents off guard.

Boxing is a "figured out" sport. It won't work. He's just going to trip on himself while a bunch of ******s in the audience go cray cray cuz Money whoopin dat Russian ass (they will think Ireland is in Russia).

Conor at 145...



USADA regulated. Conor would have no pop at 47 without the roids and killing himself, therefore with USADA... Conor can only do 154 without making Showtime suspects and casuals saying, "why does Conor look to skinny, is he sick?!" -Casual

154 is fine for Conor. No roids, just pure testing the limits

Mayweather holds all the cards if you want the fight you gotta do it. I do see this as a big problem for Conor though, he can't keep his hands high in the tiny UFC gloves so he's really going to struggle to do it here. May by TKO/KO/DQ at evens looks like easy money! Can't see it lasting any more than 9 rounds.
