    and you're right, floyd is being protected now. you cant bring floyd up and match him with any of the current WW right now because the new excuse is "floyd is retired", but floyd just fought in august LOL!!!
    yeah berto was more well known for getting his a** whipped..

    ...i don't know why its so hard to keep it real these days...if you are semi-retired and to the point where you are just cherry picking no risk, high reward fight opportunities, just say that...then there's no need to comment on threads like this

      LOL were you watching the fight?

      Once Floyd in rounds 1 and 2 figured Conor had absolutely no power on his shots he literally was allowing himself to get hit with shots cuz one, it did nothing and two, cuz he said he would go toe to toe!

      Against the welters he obviously wouldn't allow himself to get hit like that you fool!

        Obviously Crawford's length and speed and Spence's power and strength would be difficult for any 41 yr old. Thurman is more of a boxer so Floyd would have a better chance of beating him.
        so spence and TC are not boxers?

            That isn't what I posted, just like I didn't only post "Berto was more well known".

            Please, go away. You are already at ******ation level 9. You posted you think Spence and Crawford beat him and Thurman is 50/50. No need to discuss anymore.

              you said thurman is more of a boxer...... you didnt post that? so what are you implying then?

              no, you just didnt post that berto was more well know, you said he was the champ, which means nothing because thurman was also the champ.

                At the time Berto was a former 2 time champ. Thurman had only been interim champ. This is easily checked if you use google. I also posted Berto was easier than Thurman because he was older and more shot and Floyd fought him to make sure he was undefeated for #50.

                Now please, go away. If you want to bash Floyd, feel free.

                  does not change the fact that thurman was also a champ. and keyword: FORMER

                  you gave your reasons as to why floyd picked berto because he was a champ and was more well known, but you ignored that thurman was also a champ.

                  but you never answer my question when you said floyd picked berto over thurman to make sure he stay undefeated so that means he avoided thurman. you never got back to me on this.

                      Floyd got hit with that shot because he used virtually no feints and came directly at McGregor. He only started feinting when it got passed the 7th round and he was looking for the late round ko.

                      Conor also has exceptional timing and he is pretty explosive. He's also not just any ordinary MMA fighter because his background was actually in boxing.
