        Mcgregor seems to have a team of yes men around him he needs a dose of humility and reality if he wants to give boxing a crack. Malignaggi could have helped him but mcgregors ego is too big floyds going to massacre this man or at least make him look like a 0-0 fighter which he is. I hope Floyd has the stones to fight in the octagon I'd give him a good chance but at his age it's a stretch, doesn't really need that at 40-41 years old.

          Floyd would never get in the octagon. He wouldn't even fight an inexperienced Canelo at Canelo's natural weight, a competitive Pacquiao or No-chin-but-faster-than-Floyd Khan (after he won Floyd's own Twitter pole). He only picks fights that are a foregone conclusion with zero risk.

          This is why I want McGregor to get lucky. Imagine what it will do to Floyd's legacy.

          As for McGregor - he's just fulfilling his part of the deal - to keep his and Mayweather's name in the spotlight. In a couple more days - there will be another 'story'. It's all part of the money-making game

              You have a "boxing fan" saying he hopes McGregor gets lucky and imagine what it does to his legacy. Really all you need to know.

                I domt like floyd as much as the next guy but im still rooting for him as a boxing fan. You're supposed to be a boxing fan yet want a non boxer to come in and knock out floyd to crush his legacy? If anything its gonna crush boxing and make the boxing community look weak if a non boxer does what other legends and bad ass fighters couldnt do.

                  Oh great! Two defensive genii. You can't hit what you can't see. That's exactly why I'm not going to look. Nothing to see.

                    Didn't they say the same thing about Rousey, but then we found out later that her sparring partners were not allowed to punch back? They had to sign a contract and everything. Surely if he is not getting touched there will be footage on All Access right?

                      As long as they don't bring in Adrien Broner for sparring they will be ok with these bum squad jv bench warm squad sparring partners. Broner would knock McGregor unconcious even with 16 oz pillows. McAssger couldn't even stop Paulie in a 12 round fight that Paulie found out about last second. Paulie can't punch, is shot to shit, and was always just a B level guy that couldn't win the big one. Paulie was so shot he got stopped by a British crumpet eating bum his last fight. Broner absolutely kills McGregor and gets the fight cancelled. McGregor isn't on that level so he needs to go fight Floyd a couple levels down below.
