Comments Thread For: Sparring Partner: McGregor Was 'Clear Winner' in Malignaggi Spar

[PunchyPotorff]

I just have to laugh as I sit on the sidelines and observe all this drama style reality show drivel as it keeps building. And what's even funnier are the gossiping biddies coming on here with their take on it... as if any of it means much of anything. I'll go as far as to say confidently that McGregor will shake up Floydie a bit, win or lose... and that yes, likely Connor will lose. But really, take a look at all the scripted nonsense mixed along with Paulie's whining, more and more as the days go on. Geez, what a predictable bunch of hooey... that apparently isn't selling many tickets. Wonder if there's a clause in the contract that says Floydie doesn't necessarily get that 100 mil if this whole circus show implodes? Cuz that's what Punchy's crystal ball is telling him this very moment.... maybe 2/3 filled arena, possibly a mil PPVs.... certainly not enough to fund what the contracts state. I'm guessing there are some nervous promoters/managers etc. right about now.

But hey, at least we have a REAL fight something like 3 weeks later with Canelo and GGG.

Is this real?

“He lift me off my feet with an uppercut”

“Those shots would ko Boxers”

[sammybee]

such photoshop statements are out to make Conor look good. We shall see on 26th.

Yeah, that pretty much puts this whole interview in context.

What's the Irish boxer going to say when he's own countryman is paying his sparring services? Our guy got his a$$ whipped by an out of shape Paulie an hour off of a flight?! lol. I believe this is even news.

The Irish amateur boxer, in camp with the Irish fighter, asked about in an interview, could only go as far as saying that the spar was basically 50/50 that he thought Conor "won".

No mention of the knockdown, no mention of Conor blowing through everyone, and even still, couldn't even note Conor's power enough that even he, himself, could stand and handle the shot.

Boxing fan here but McGregor is def going to be more athletic than most boxers imo as his discipline requires more flexibility and a range of styles

Boxers have chicken legs and wouldn't have mcgregors lower body strength and explosiveness, he will be dangerous lunging in with all that momentum but vulnerable for same reason

Paulie got smoked by Connor

Hahaha I knew it and now we have conclusive proof

NDA (Unless you make McGregor look good)

LOL you should look at this kids twitter. He's got a pic of HIM about to land a punch on Conor or just missing him + talk of loyalty in tweets. I'd bet this kid signs with Conor's sports entity or whatever sorta company he started.

The Yes Man stuff isn't anything new so Paulie is on point with that stuff. This kid is just a new Yes Man hire + will be getting his own upside from Conor for his loyalty I'd be willing to bet.
