Comments Thread For: Dana White Proud of McGregor, But Doesn't Want Him to Box Again

[jay543]

We won last night, we partied and we are still celebrating. Conor rocked floyd, toyed with him and outboxed him. A 0-0 fighter making his pro debut and almost knocked floyd out if it wasnt for Byrd giving floyd a break in the 9th round.

0-1 fighter got beat up, broken down, and forced to quit against a 40 year old who he called a pillow puncher and claimed he'd knock out in 10 seconds.

Mcnugget did FOOKING NOTHING.

Dance for me boy! "peeleft:

If that's the case he should pay the man. McGregor did more for the UFC in one night than the thousands of PPV events they've done. What number are they up to UFC #20,001?

[MDPopescu]

I wonder if anybody will have enough money to pay this guy in order to fight again...

Floyd won off of basic boxing IQ and instinct. He looked sloppy. Looked slow. His punches were solid, but he missed so many. He wasn't lazer like. He wasn't immaculate as he always was. He had spurts where he looked inept. He was 40, Conor was 11 years younger....20 pounds heavier.....and got shut out by a guy who was in the strip club partying. Like this should be his first and last fight in boxing, unless he can fight Brandon Rios, Paulie and Tim Bradley

Still delusional. Floyd let the moron tire himself out then beat the brakes off that clown and the ref had to save his life.

What people don't realize is the Connor is not a seek and destroy KO artist. Hi kos usually come by counterpunching.

McGregor won the first few rounds surprisingly by just boxing and using his reach advantage. But it didn't look like the guy trained for 12 hard rounds, otherwise he wouldn't get fatigued so early when Mayweather was doing very little. It really looked like he was toying with Floyd and could win on points. But they both made a huge amount of money, and right time for Floyd to exit as he looked his worst ever, even if the gameplan was to turn it on later in the fight. Father time is undefeated.

McGregor is not receiving 70 million from ppvs lol. He'll take home with 50 million at the most for this fight. Floyd pimped him really.

[Combat Talk Radio]

He wants him back in the UFC where he can go back to paying him in Potatoes.

Of course he doesnt would you want to see your cash cow go?

Exactly x2.

He was 40, Conor was 11 years younger....20 pounds heavier.....and got shut out by a guy who was in the strip club partying.

Spot on. And hilarious

Dana White made a big mistake letting conor box it only benefited conor not ufc, Conor already tasted that boxing money, why would he go back to UFC, the only way he goes back to UFC is if UFC ups his guarantee to 10 million and ppv points

Conor could easily fight Paulie Malignaggi and do 900k ppv buys and earn 20 million for that fight alone.

The reason Dana doesn't ant Conor back in boxing is becaue he has no more stars, Jon Jones is done, Ronda is done, GSP nobody knows if he will draw probably do 400 to 500k buys UFC fans move on quickly so GSP could be hyped hard and not break a million

The only superfight Dana had left was to put Jon Jones vs Brock Lesnar.

Conor lost his luster he couldn't even hurt Floyd or mark him up with 8oz gloves.
