Comments Thread For: Illusions of Grandeur: Malignaggi, McGregor and Mayweather

[etech1]

Spend your money on the GGG vs Canelo fight not this carnival rip off. This is an absolute joke!! You have the best runner in boxing fighting a wwe wanna be. Don't get ripped off by the phony media they are releasing from both camps. This road race won't even be entertaining. Mayweather will do what he always does and run all night and after the first round it will be apparent Conor has no chance. What a con job for the dim wits

McGregor is so bad, I don't even think fraud will run. He will feel him out, and then sit in the pocket, and make McGregor look silly. I can see McGregor quitting on his stool in under 9 rounds.

With his youth, good chin, and size, he will make a good punching bag for a good half dozen rounds.

I agree, I can't believe how gullible the public is! Unreal!

This will be frauds easiest fight since he cherry picked bladomir.

What will help McGregor is that he doesn't box like a conventional boxer and probably does a few odd things and maybe switches stances a lot. I'm not saying he'll win but anything he does that is out of the ordinary could be good for him, as long as within the rules. And he'll go for it, unlike Canelo and guys like Guerrero just waiting for something to happen. At least that part is likely exciting.

You are usually vulnerable as your switching. Most boxers aren't good enough to make you pay the price. Floyd can discipline you for it. Broner would KO this guy easy.

Malapropisms of Grandeur...

Paulie Maggot has zero business crying about getting hit hard

Paulie the Maggot has zero business involved in anything to do with this mega 1/2 billion extravaganza. The maggot is a whiner and a baby nothing more.

I second that

What about the Mayweather illusion? He rarely fought the best fighters at their best (or even at their natural weight).

Just 3 examples out of many :

Canelo (Who had he beaten at the time? (Austin Trout and Ricky Hatton's brother that's who) and Mayweather made him lose weight and later called him ****** for agreeing to lose weight! Then Mayweather refused to fight him when he peaked)
Paquaio (Mayweather ducked the peak Manny Pacquaio again and again and again)
Ricky Hatton (not fighting at his natural weight, in his previous fight at that weight he looked terrible also)

Floyd even ducked Khan when people thought he could be a threat and fought Maidana instead (who Khan had beaten). This is next generation cowardness
