mma rules pacquiao don't last 2 rounds

Against someone with good grappling and inside game I'd say yes but against McMuffin? He's slow as molasses and the best part of his game is striking which really isn't that great. Manny could easily counter his slug shots and knock him out cold. He's much faster and has much better punching skills, throwing quick, powerful combos from a variety of angles while moving in and out at speed. McMuffin is done at the top of MMA. His supposed power has been debunked, he couldn't even hurt an old man at the bar with bar fists. He can be taken.

Mctap should just go away he is a fake front runner, if a fight breaks out he is done.

Exactly. He's like the Wilder of MMA. Once his big punch is avoided and he gets backed up, he's done. He submits whenever he's under any pressure.

MMA fighters want to fight boxers because it automatically enhances the money they have made in MMA. No matter what they make in ufc or Bellator, they will make more money in boxing. I respect guys like Chris Algeri, Caleb Plant, Kermit Cintron, Zab Judah, Andre Berto, etc...guys who were brought up as multi discipline fighters in kickboxing, wrestling, and boxing but chose to concentrate on or campaign in boxing proper. I often feel like MMA guys because they are more suburban and middle class in origin shy away from boxing because they have no access to it in their higher income areas and then make excuses for not making boxing money

Yeah, thanks for your insight Captain Obvious. Maybe you should focus on your sport too, it would avoid you to get knocked out like a bitch next time.

McGregor has a puncher's chance but Pac is 42. All these guys want a win over Pac for bragging rights. If he keeps fighting Pac will eventually get caught with a big punch. Just remember Leonard Roy Jones etc--superfighters in their prime but when the reflexes go they get KOd.
