Comments Thread For: Mayweather Sr: Not Sure Floyd KO's McGregor Due To Hand Issue

[boxinghead530]

I've said this same exact thing since the fight was signed.

So in your opinion Floyds not going to "Gatti" him?

[Herr Schmeling]

The Mayweather's are so soft. Gatti knocking out fighters with broken hands left and right. If May can't knockout that novice cold, he should donate all his money to charity and go back to his real home.

[SUBZER0ED]

"In Mayweather’s favour may be conditioning. ‘Money’ is phenomenally fit, while McGregor’s last fight that went the distance - his majority decision win over Nate Diaz at UFC 202 - saw him regularly backing up from his opponent to catch his breath. That was a 25-minute fight, albeit in five-minute rounds where he was also defending takedowns, against 36 minutes (12 x 3-minute rounds) vs Mayweather, who may fancy his chances of stopping a gassed-out rival."

Going hard 5 rounds for 5 minutes each, is tough! Conor or anyone else who does that has to be in tremendous shape to do it. Mayweather is talking early stoppage, but he's the only one saying that, in order to boost sales. His hands are shot and have been for a long time. They certainly haven't gotten stronger over the years. If anything, the early rounds favor McGregor. The only chance that Floyd has to KO him is in the later rounds, if Conor is gassed. But, he still has youth on his side and old Floyd will be tired too. Given those facts, Mayweather's chances of KOing McGregor are microscopic.

Not a chance this goes 12. I'm a McGregor fan, but he's an MMA fighter, he's not going 12 with any boxer.

12 would be a morale victory for him. That, and the shit load of cash of course.

I don't know what Floyd is going to do beyond win in a boxing lesson. But Floyd's broken hands has been one of the main issues between him and KO'ing his opponents. Other than size disadvantage, it's his hands.

[Roberto Vasquez]

All I know is Paulie said he beat McGregor's ass for 10 rounds. Seeing the footage from the 11th and 12th rounds, Conor didn't look too fatigued or worse the wear because of it.

No one expected connor to beat floyd....

Actually I'll amend that statement.

Only complete morons with sub 90 IQ believed connor would beat floyd.

The only person that will win this fight is mayweather.

Fixed it for ya
