Comments Thread For: McGregor: There Are No Damn Leg Kicks In Boxing - Pacquiao Fight Was Happening

[TMLT87]

Bahaha. Yeah ok. Funny thing is, I'm white! Bet you didn't see that **** coming. GTFOH. It's easy to see for anyone who's not a deluded McMuffin fan that he is the great white hope for racist right wing mental cases.

Great white hope for what? what are the racist right wing mental cases hoping for him to do? its not like theres a shortage of succesful white MMA fighters for them to root for, including the one that just kicked his ass. Conor isnt even American.

But is it still a fight if there are no clinches and a guy doesn't knock anyone out??? You talk about taking all these things away to prove who is the best "fighter", but what does that even mean?? You said yourself most fights end up on the ground. So what does that mean about this being a fight? He doesn't knockout, knockdown, or even hurt anyone. So under these very specific set of conditions he can win a boring decision. Big deal. You can create any set of strict rules and someone will emerge as the best under those rules. But what does it mean in the grand scheme of combat sports. Mayweather has embarrassed the sport of boxing by proving you can avoid exchanges, throw limited punches, run around the ring, and still be on top. Now he's further embarrassing the sport by calling out people in combat sports who train for multiple things and having them compete in the only thing he knows how to do. Like Tenshin, for example. If you let that guy kick, even as small as he is, he would have f**ked Floyd up. In a real right, Rhonda Rousey f**ks Floyd up. It's such a horrible look for boxing that the most famous participant in the sport would get beat up in any other arena and, by a lot of top females in MMA.

Yes, and that makes it harder. Keep removing things you can do in a fight. That will make things tougher.

Tenshin and Ronda Rousey wouldn’t beat Floyd in a real fight. That’s an exaggeration now.

You said Floyd is calling out fighters from other sports. Conor McGregor called out Mayweather.

And how far back do you know about the sport or have researched it? Exhibition fights vs non boxers are old news. You keep saying Floyd is ruining the sport with these type of fights. Which leads me to believe you don’t know anything about the history of exhibition fights in boxing, where boxers fight non boxers. I got news for you, Floyd wasn’t the first retired boxer to fight a non boxer.

How ridiculous a comment. Keep removing things to make it harder?? So let's tie up everyone's left arm behind them and see who is the best. Or let's have them hop on one foot! How many things do you want to keep taking away before it no longer resembles a fight.

Absolutely Rhonda Rousey would kick Floyd's ass. She'd take all 147 lbs of him down in seconds. And you don't think if Tenshin was allowed to use his legs in a fight that he would have beaten Mayweather?? Gimme a break. The distance changes alone would have been completely foreign and uncomfortable to Little Floyd.

I understand exhibitions have been a part of the sport. The problem is that these exhibitions are now becoming the main attractions in boxing because top guys won't fight other top guys in their primes anymore. Who laid out that blue print?

As for the Garcia/Pac exhibition, two active boxers (one with a world championship belt) should NOT engage in anything other than a real boxing match.

floyd will ended up on his golden electric wheelchair if leg kick was allowed. he'll be the next professor X if ever.

In a way yes, but its a double edged sword, theres more ways to win in MMA and also more ways to lose. That means there are more upsets, so holding onto a UFC belt for a long time is harder.

Ronda wouldnt but Tenshin may well do, Floyd couldnt take too many of those kicks to his head, body or legs.

A 5’5” 126lb kid, kicking or punching, will no hurt Floyd man, lol.

And Tenshin literally couldn’t take one punch. And Floyd is nowhere near a big puncher. If Floyd had fought him allowing him to kick, it would have ended even faster. Floyd clearly toyed with him for 139 seconds. He was laughing in there. It was a joke of a fight, joke of an opponent, too small, for an easy $10million. Doesn’t matter because it was just an exhibition.

You can’t say Ronda Rousey would beat Floyd up in a real fight and then call anyone else’s comment “ridiculous”. That is as ridiculous as it gets.

She was punched almost to death by Holly Holm. Come on dude put your hate aside for one second and be serious.

You think a full blown kick or knee from a 5'5, 126lb world class kickboxer (arguably p4p best in the world) cant hurt a 5'8, 150lb ish 40+ year old who has no defense against them?

I think you’re completely disregarding that Tenshin could not take a punch, at all. Like every single punch Floyd landed hurt the kid. You are also assuming that if this fight takes place with Tenshin being allowed to kick, that Floyd will just be a heavy bag who would not move and do nothing during this fight. All I noticed in this fight was that every punch Floyd landed seemed to badly hurt Tenshin. Anyway, Tenshin is so much smaller than Floyd, that if he was allowed to kick and Floyd won, no one would take the match seriously anyway. While a good kick can be dangerous, a missed kick can cause a loss of balance and an opportunity for a counter punch. If you think Tenshin, the best kickboxer at Featherweight, beats Floyd with kicks, you are assuming all the stars align for Tenshin. He lands every kick and avoids every punch. I find that hard to believe, that Floyd won’t still KO him brutally if they fought with kicks allowed on top of boxing. Floyd would land power punches, guaranteed. And Tenshin took not even one power punch well. Like, they literally all wobbled or hurt him.

Now bring in a bigger opponent and i’ll agree with you.

But no kid, no matter my lack of experience in kickboxing, is KO’ing me. If a 12 year old who is well trained in kicking comes to try kick my ass, i’d likely laugh at him and place my palm on his head as he attempts to kick me. The size disparity, at some point, becomes too much to handle. That is exactly why there’s weight classes in boxing. As good as someone like a Featherweight Josh Warrington is at boxing, compared to, let’s say Khabib (146-155lbs), with boxing rules, i’d give Khabib a pretty good shot at KO’ing Warrington. The sheer size would be too much despite Khabib likely not being the superior boxer (with boxing rules).
