What do you think Conor's strategy will be?

[FrankieBruno]

I have a feeling Conor is going to get dropped within the first 2 rounds

He will charge in because he thinks Floyd is small and weak

He will come in, chin in air and get caught clean by something he never saw coming.

Can't believe we get free fights undercard on Fox channel

Exactly what I was thinking. Gotta give credit to Dana. He been doing this with UFC events. Putting prelims on fox and fox sports. I noticed it for a few Ronda, Jones, and Conor fights. This isnt the doing of MP.

He actually plans to win he would try to get Floyd to follow him and try to land one good counter punch. Likely not to happen but that's his only chance of winning.

Do you think he'll come out heavy from the first bell? He kind of has to

I think he's gonna get ****d in his butt regardless

All week I've been predicting 7 knockdowns for Floyd in rd 1 and I know that's obviously ridiculous, but I wouldn't be surprised to see more than 5 in the fight at least, for Floyd.

If you watch McGregor's fight with Alvarez you see that Conor didn't really pursue him, he let Eddie throw the first shots and countered accordingly. I can't see Floyd making that mistake plus he's probably gonna be considerably sharper/faster than Alvarez was and won't be standing there when his opponent throws his counters.

We might not see anything but jabs from Floyd for the first 4-5 rounds while he gets comfortable. Pretty much a shortened version of the strategy he used for the Castillo rematch, then step it up and get that finish.

He will look like a clown while missing by miles, then gas, then get stopped.

Do a lot of posturing and unconventional stuff in the 1st. Try to pour it on in the 2nd. Realise half way though the 3rd he can't touch Floyd with anything. Get knocked out in the 4th.

This. Except get KOed in round 8 thru 12 if Floyd decides to give the fans a thrill.

he will run straight across the ring at the first bell towards floyd trying put him on the back foot right away

i think his team have looked at this as a 4 round fight he is going going to go for broke i cant see him being his usual counter puncher self he is going to try maul floyd in my opinion thinking he will walk through mayweathers shots that seems a bit far fetched but the guys sounded even more deluded than ever last few days he probably thinks he is invincible right now

Superman punch
