Conor McGregor explains how he’s put fear in the boxing community

[Robbie Barrett]

He obviously hasn't read any boxing forums and the opinions of boxing fans.

Its going to be like the Gatti fight (R.I.P. Gatti)

You think so? I keep visioning Victor Ortiz with out the controversy. And I changed my original quote, I had Floyd in place of Conor...

A wide stance is horrible for boxing. It's hilarious that both he and Brendan Schaub think that the karate stance is going to help. It might help the first couple of rounds, but once Floyd times him he is gonna look sloppy and slow on his feet.

Well he is basically throwing shade at all of us considering we as fans are apart of the boxing community. Conor will make for a good meme after Floyd ends Conors boxing career after 1 fight...

Yeah hes out of his mind. That karate footwork is all bad in a boxing ring lol

Really? I think Floyds going to stand in there like he did with Victor Ortiz.

yes, i think so, he is 40 now and been out of the ring for 2 years. won't take a chance imo. would love to see him do it. i actually enjoyed his canelo performance and would love to see him do it again but who knows. i can see him frustrating mcgregor to the point of quitting, like loma did to walters

It creates a lot of power but its terrible for combination punching. The hardest Ive ever been hit in sparring was by a MMArtist but he never followed up after he rocked me, I dont think he even knew, its just not their thing and you cant learn that in a few months. Punch resistance is also way different. Ive stopped mid sparring against boxers that were really good because I kept getting hit and I knew it woulda ended bad for me. No shame in saying it, Ive never been anything special. Just saying theres a worlds difference.

Instead of No Mas, itd be "No fookin more". lol

Marciano record standing. Mayweather will make history as an exemple of how greed ruinned one's legacy. This will be shocking. Mayweather is only a shell of himself now

It is 154 Boxing Amateurs who would beat the **** out of McGregor in a Boxing Match. I'm a McGregor Fan but boxing and MMA is not the same and he will learn that August 26th the hard way but I respect his confidence!

Idk that Conor will quit with his rep as a quitter in MMA when things get tough. I don't think quitting or giving up will sit well with him in the biggest fight he'll ever be involved in & he'll do anything to avoid it. It'll probably be a TKO, maybe a legit KO, although if its a KO I think its 50/50 if its a legit KO vs Conor just being gassed, hurt &/or the ref calling it.

That said I think one of the best bets in combat sports right now is the under 9.5 @ -165 for this fight. I can't really fathom this fight lasting 28:30 when Conor has trouble not gassing in 10 minutes in fights he's dominating in his own sport.
