poor bread

forced to spend a majority of his time correcting/admonishing silly pacstains who attempt to use his knowledge/standing to somehow discredit Mayweather

LMAO

actually, bugger him, I don't feel sorry for bread at all

we spend enough time correcting those clowns, it is only fair that bread does his share

but Green-K bread, for your unwavering patience/commitment

Let's keep this simple. I'll ask you... do think Floyd carried Conor McGregor? Daily Mail Bread said "Floyd is a careful fighter by nature. So he took his time." Do you honestly believe that for the McGregor Bout?

that is exactly what I saw

they knew Conor would never make the 12th round

he was always going to blow his load early

Floyd would have stopped Lara, no contest. Lara is not slick defensively, all he does is run. He doesn't slip punches, he doesn't have good head of hip movement, he doesn't even had good foot movement inside the pocket. He got good fundamentals but I don't rate him athletically at all.

Now Andrade, whoa as much of a coward as he is (ducking everyone at 154) that boy is dangerous AF! Very slick, very good at slipping and weaving below and around punches, good legs, high punch volume and variation, and incredibly skilled. His length and reach would also give Floyd nightmares.

This is a guy I thought, as a Floyd fan, I'm glad the fight never happened.

Lara, pwaarg (spit!!!)!!! He don't stand a chance against Floyd. Floyd would have Judah'd him.

both of those guys would have been difficult fights for Mayweather, but Lara is the guy you would put your money on if you were forced

one poster, Bronx22 maybe, I can't remember now..... is a strong Floyd fan, but has been saying for years that Lara would be Floyd's real problem under 154, and I agree with him

I would favor Mayweather, but I think that would be a very close/difficult fight..... one that Floyd would have needed to take a few years back, when he was sharp and on top of his game

[aboutfkntime]

you acknowledged performance factor to justify the fight, "entertainment," which again, is the point, and why the Mayweathers trolled the corner...

Do you think Floyd could have not tired out Conor with his traditional performances? Floyd can read almost everything. Floyd also never gets credit trolling rope a dope

my 2c.....

Floyd saw McGregor as a showcase fight

like Gatti at 140

that is also how he saw Cotto and Maidana I

which is why he fought those guys the same way he fought Mac

flat-footed

McGregor was a look-good showcase opponent who was definitely going to fold if Floyd stuck to his gameplan

which is exactly what happened

what is muddying the waters, is that Floyd looked rusty as hell..... he was nowhere near as sharp and his defence was not on point

Yeah that's a funny area. But the tape has been set in stone forever timez. Conor is significantly bigger than Floyd and 20 years from now, tape has Conor bragging about coming in plus 170lb and saying Floyd was too small. People will wonder why the "best" MMA fighter couldn't hurt Floyd with 8oz gloves on the M.Queensbury rules.

[Progrssive_Jedi]

If course he carried him

Floyd stood there guard up and traded, not cutting off ring, not jabbing to get on the inside, no movement in and out.

Truth is Floyd could have easily forced Conor into a three round marathon and then KO'd him.

You only need to look at Lara's performance against Canelo compared to Floyd's schooling of Canelo to see the gap in skill, speed, and athletism between the two.

Andrade is the one that would give Floyd nightmares, not Lara.
