Comments Thread For: Trainer: McGregor's Boxing Skills Improving, Sparring Going Well

[HarvardBlue]

So the trainer is basically saying Mayweather better be careful because his fighter is improving everyday. Meanwhile McGregor is guaranteeing a 4th round stoppage. McGregor's trainer might want to explain this to McGregor.

That's what I see happening but with not nearly as much success as Marcos.

Yea im not so sure itll be anything like Marcos, he wasnt so much awkard in his movement it was more so punching angles that troubled May in addition to the volume of punches he was throwing, muscling him and smothering him along the ropes (kinda like Pacquiao Horn). McGregor doesnt really have that come forward-smother style. And to the best of my knowledge he throws more single shots than he does combos and i just dont see that helping him in anyway.

His only chance to have any success at all is to be awkward and as unpredictable with his movement as possible and hopefully in doing so he can catch may either off balance or in an akward position.

sounds good in theory, but not likely

Okay Conor can punch and Floyd can defend great and is great

So Conor will be swinging and will tag Felon Floyd a few times early on til getting tired and exhausted and made to look ******. Floyd will look smooth and quick and boxing greatest since Ray leonard.

UFC fan: Connor is an elite combat athlete. Why should he need more than 40 days to learn how to put on a pair of boxing gloves and do what he already does in the Octagon .. knocking guys TFO?

Boxing is simple. The easiest combat sport of all to learn. Nothing to it .. Connor's gonna destroy Mayweather!

Lol. That is a UFC fan that knows NOTHING about boxing.

Boxing is harder to learn then all the other disciplines IMO.

I should log on to a MMA site and read the comments, just so I can get a laugh.

For these to to fight it out is NOT a disgrace

BUT

For this to count on Jrs record as a real boxing match IS a Disgrace to the sport!

Legacy will reveal it and jr is full of shlt !!!

Big clown show worth nothing !!

Make it fair and allow Conor one mma move like say a choke hold !! The rabbit runs again !

I think Floyd might rope a dope Conor. Stay on the ropes and let McGregor blow his load.

[Majic]

Lol he aint even a boxing trainer what does he know

[Fook That BOY]

This is just a pillow fight, circus act!

He should emphasize inside fighting, grappling and throwing borderline shots. Maybe a minor arm bar in the clinches. He has to smother him on the ropes like its the Octagon. That's his only chance of winning
