people in forums want to make bold predictions without putting $$$$ on the line.

ok, you were right but HOW MUCH did you win (e points dont count ) ???

Well for one, Floyd won't be nearly as cautious as he was with Manny. As badly as Manny was rendered ineffective, Floyd was as cautious as EVER. Floyd landed a career low and took zero risks in that fight. He's as much at blame for the lack of entertainment value of that fight as Manny was. I expect Floyd to put on a show on this guy, because he's very well aware of how limited McGregor is (which is EXTREMELY limited).

Two, Manny inexcusably tried to box Floyd. Conor won't even try to box Floyd. Because if he does he'll look like a f**king ******. The best chance for Conor is to have the Floyd/Maidana 1 fight playing on a loop in his mind. Conor, I assume, is going to just try and walk Floyd down, attempt to bully him, and swing for the fences. That by default is going to make his strategy, and the fight, that much more entertaining.

So yes, I would not be surprised at all if it's more entertaining that Mayweather/Pacquiao.

Manny tried to box cuz he tasted Floyd's right hand & had a Marquez flashback.....conor will find out in a few rounds that it ain't that easy & that Floyd hits harder than he thought.

I totally agree that Floyd most definitely has enough snap to keep guys honest, and just walking him down and swinging for the fences is waaaaayyyyyy easier than it sounds.

That said, that's really his only hope. He's going to have to have the mindset that he's going to eat some really solid leather to get where he wants to as far as shortening up the distance. Because from distance he will just be lumbering target practice.

I doubt conor knows how to fight on the inside and can do what maidana did. They grapple on the inside in mma not punch

I would call his bluff if I were McGregor.
Winner takes all.

If I'm Conor I call his bluff and say "sure I'll bet my purse, let me wear the gloves of my choice and lets fight inside of a 16-foot boxing ring...fight ends when someone gets KO'd or can't answer the bell...no decisions or scorecards".
