Boxing fans are in denial tonight...

[DJ Enerate]

I've been watching mma for a very long time, legs kick would be very dangerous but I doubt a prime mayweather, who in this scenerio is prime, longer, heavier and bigger boned allows himself to be ended that quickly on leg kicks (albeit a well placed one on an newby is fight ending) if old fat mercer could take a few, or old fat ali, and this aint old fat toney. I would strongly favour floyd to come in actually taking it seriously and move like he did vs pacquiao to avoid kicks and takedowns, and floyd can punch off that movement, he'll posses the power to easily end an old retired conor easily ith a single punch as he's trying to keep up with the foot speed. Floyd in this scenerio would have training to check kicks bit it obviously wont be enough, but one can fairly effectively step out of range and then pounce back in with an offensive, legs arent as long as you're imagining, people do this all the time.

If it was a prime floyd vs a 40 year old, smaller etc george st. pierre then I would worry.

In boxing an mma guy will have a hard time outdoing a boxer in anything, but in mma the boxer will have the advantage with the hands.

MMA has evolved big time from those days. Mcgregor is a totally different fighter to what Mercer faced. Mcgregor is a phenomenal stand up fighter with average wrestling. He'd brutalise Mayweathers legs from the off and there would be **** all Mayweather could do about it. Mcgregor would not engage with Mayweather at Mayweathers range. He'd kick the absolute life out of him before taking him down. He might even end it via kicks alone.

And the best stand up MMA guys are very mobile due to having to adopt a lighter stance.. They have to be way more mobile than boxers due to having to evade take downs and kicks. Mcgregor is very springy on his feet when fighting MMA. If he can evade take downs and kicks in MMA then he can evade Floyd's punches while delivering kicks of his own outside Floyds range which Floyd won't know how to deal with. It's a very easy win for Mcgregor in the Octagon. ****, Mcgregor had some success evading Floyd's shots at punching range ffs. At kicking range Floyd is absolutely fuvked. He'd get wasted.

But we are not in a cage, its a boxing ring and the giant of UFC with a 20+ pound advantage back peddled all night until he was chopped down and stopped by a frail 40 yr old. that really happened lol.

Just want to address the mma guys move more or are faster of foot and mcgregor esspecially being very springy. For the first 5 minutes maybe, otherwise absolutely not, and never faster than mayweather, you should watch more of mcgregor. He seemed better when he was skeletor fighting midgets though. But since the move up, no, nope. And in this scenerio even more so being 40, coming out of retirement etc.

Anyway, enough of this conversation, we've said our piece.

No ****. I watched it live. I'm still not that impressed by Floyd's win since Conor won some rounds and that I know for a fact a 40 year old Roberto Duran would have savaged Mcgregor very early.

I believe Mcgregor would take Floyd out in the Octagon way easier than he was beaten by Mayweather in a boxing ring. Even a closer to prime version of Mayweather would be destroyed by Mcgregor. Floyd wouldnt even dare go there though.

I'm not even a UFC fan. It's just simple physics.

But you watched a more flat footed version of Mcgregor that had changed his style to a boxing one for the Mayweather fight. He usually bounces about on the outside delivering kicks and fainting etc. Was a totally different Mcgregor vs Floyd. It had to be though.

[supremeboxer]

floyd could have fought completely differently,but then ppl would have complained about the fight being boring.
floyd didnt respect conors power,floyd was smiling and winking at ppl in the crowd even in the first 2 rounds.
floyds gameplan was simply walk conor down,i dont care if a get hit,then i'll up my punch output then finish him off.
the way floyd fought wasnt like how he normally fights,and thats because he wanted to make the fight entertaining.
oh and conor had very little punch power,how he knocks guys out with punches in mma i dont know.

I thought it was obvious I have seen plenty of mcgregor in the cage. He's no wizard on his feet, and his "light footedness" lasts about 5 minutes.

They are celebrating like they won the world cup. In mma floyd would not last 30 seconds. And this fight proved it.

Connor won alot of rounds and connected alot of times considing hes never had a professional fight andnever had a 12 round fight.

8 round fight he would of genuinely won on points, like flat earth scientists, boxing and floyd fans are celebrating because a 0 0 mma fighter ran out of energy in 9th round onwards....wow.

Mma won, and showed it is the superior fighting skill..floyd would be killed in 30 seconds in a mma fight....fact.

For starters, Floyd isn't dumb enough to ********** himself to the UFC. At no point was Conor ever in control, in the rounds he "won" he hardly landed anything effective and he missed a stationary target. Floyd had a gameplan and he executed it to perfection.

At the end it turned out Conor isn't even half a fighter and that there was a reason he was in MMA and not in Boxing. He's just a ho that pimp daddy Floyd Spit Roasted with the UFC.

The denial in this thread is strong.

He got walked down by a midget with brittle hands. I am embarrassed for MMA, stick to dry humping.

Why does one have to chose between MMA and Boxing?

I watch BOTH
