Comments Thread For: Mayweather Hopes McGregor Avoids Boxing Again, Explains Why

[Metho_4u]

Floyd didn't "break down" ****. Mcgregor was breathing heavy before Floyd even landed a body punch. He gassed all by himself. Just like he did against Nate Diaz. He knocked Diaz down multiple times, landing combinations at will, while Diaz couldn't do ****, not even land a single punch for the first 7 minutes of their fight. Then after connecting everything, Mcgregor misses one or two combinations, and suddenly he's breathing out of his mouth, backing up, and looking like a dead man walking.

He just has stamina issues. Plain and simple. Plus he'd never boxed before, but that's no excuse seeing as the same thing happened in UFC. I'm sick of seeing fanboys of certain boxers give credit for their opponent's fatigue. Just like so many here wanted to overhype Ward for "breaking down" Kovalev, only for it to come out after their fights from inside Kovalev's camp that he was barely training anymore, that he's out partying, not interested in boxing anymore, etc etc. Not to mention it's possible he relied on meldonium for his stamina only for it to get outlawed months before his fight with Ward.

In other words, some guys are just going to fatigue on their own. You shouldn't get credit for doing it to them just because you were in the ring with them when it happened and you happened to land a few jabs to their bodies in the process. GGG hit Martin Murray with about 50 huge hooks to the body, and Murray lasted until the 11th round, but we're supposed to believe Floyd Mayweather at 40 years old has such a magical jab to the body that one or two is what completely "broke Mcgregor down"? Get out of here. Mcgregor tired on his own, and then Floyd started walking him down so he couldn't catch his breath, which tired him out even more. But the original ***** in his armor was his own poor stamina, not some huge body shot Floyd hit him with, or some big volume of them.

Another fuggin novel from "boxing with no logic"

You're a boner

how can you get hurt getting punched in the thigh?? only a liver and kidney shot hurts like that

I don't think he was. I think he played like he was hurt for the ref to step in. Just like he would covered up when McGregor went behind him.

I really doubt he gives a sht. He'll just say "you gotta remember i was 40 years old and inactive".

Floyd doesn't want anyone upstaging him, if Paulie m went in and stopped mc Gregor in 3 rounds then floyd would look like a fool, hence why he doesn't want any other boxer fighting mc Gregor, not that hard to understand really, mix some more water with your drinks, they're too strong

Did you read the article?

Direct quote from Mayweather...

"He's active, he's training, he's competing. These other fighters, these young lions, they are throwing a lot more combinations than I'm throwing. I was just in the pocket, shooting one shot here and there, and breaking him down slowly. Whereas you got these young active guys who are throwing a lot of combinations and would get him out of there a lot earlier."

Very honest comments by Floyd.

Floyd is old, small, and retired. imagine what Spence would do to Conor.

Or at 154, imagine what Charlo would do to Conor.

He's right.....

So I was right?

Definitely. I doubt he cares.

Where did I say anything about Connor being seriously hurt, it's simple, floyd is about floyd, ego, floyd is passing this off as a big achievement, I went straight at him, I walked him down etc etc, if no name fighters do the same to mc Gregor it will diminish what floyd has done. Not hard to understand, I'm thinking now that your actually a flo mo

He literally said a younger fighter would win faster and more convincingly. So according to you he's "afraid" of what he already admitted would happen? According to some of you he lost to Pacquiao, he doesn't seem bothered that some nobody just won a decision off him, in fact he spoke out and agreed Horn won that fight lol. Seems to contradict your bs if you ask me.

I for one think he lead the guy along to fulfill his bet on himself and probably could've KO'd Connor in Round 4 if he wanted to. Floyd is more than capable of throwing more than 1 punch at a time but I think he knew it would mean an early end to the night and make it look too much like a joke.

To the people claiming Floyd was hurt in round 9....LOL, you should just stop posting since you have 0 credibility at this point. The shot was CLEARLY low, it hit his thigh and cup and only a complete moron would try to suggest it was a "clean body shot". Comparing it to Ward/Kovalev also makes you look ******.

Why is the expression "ch1nk in the armor" censored out here lol? "***** in the armor." Wtf?

In another context it's see as a derogatory comment about Asians. It'a a programming thing, the program just censors the word, no matter how it's used.
