    His power was never his "miraculous chance" anyway. His only chance is Floyd's age and his awkward boxing style which *could* be hard for a guy like Floyd to defend and counter

      Perhaps he would hit harder if he drank more cool, refreshing water each day.

      Are you getting enough?

        who cares

        Even if Mctapper hits as hard as Wlad or Joshua, he won't land anything meaningful at any point

          No way man, his power was truly his only shot.

          Conor is barely going to be able to land a single punch as it is, if that punch can't put Floyd down then he's got nothing.

          The whole thought was "Maybe Conor will be so awkward he'll get lucky and land that 1 punch to hurt Floyd."

          Again, if the power isn't even there, Mcgregor is FOOKED

            Has any MMA fighter even beaten a C lever boxer in a boxing match?

            If MMA stand up skills were transferable to boxing then MMA guys would have boxed long time ago.

            The greatest boxer of his generation VS a guy who is making his debut

            Greatest mismatch in history lol

              Well, Conor should just go ahead an KO Paulie now the next chance he gets before the chump can rat him out more to Floyd.

                Hell Victor Ortiz and Andre Berto have a 48 combined KO's between them with boxing gloves on. Does anybody in here really think that McGregor would have more pure punching power in a boxing ring than those guys? F**k no.
                It will be the saddest day of all time for boxing fans when floyd loses. what will you all do with your lives?

                "Floyd was old man" it's already starting

                    You "snap" with mma gloves and you "swing"with boxing gloves.


                    He obviously has power since he destroys most of his opponents face with few punches in the UFC, UFC fighters are though, they can take a punch, most of them are champions coming from kick boxing or Jiu Jitsu, not some average Joe from the street.

                    He could drop Nate Diaz, a man who did well in sparring with Fonfara and co in Virgil's gym.

                    Connor need to learn to use his own power with boxing gloves in a boxing match, 3 months not being enough at all.
                    Have you by chance seen the espn.com/boxing break down of the surface area and resistance of boxing gloves vs mma gloves? PSI and all? It says that there is only a -2 % difference in power, but it is a more thudding than "snap". It's a quick video. Cheers
