It didn't sound to me like he had any intention of returning it

He boxes outside, uses his combos after a big shot
Very unlikely he lands the first shot anywhere
But if he does..

The fact that Canelo nor Hatton nor Berto nor Mosely haven't knocked down Mayweather
Odds should probably be +1500
You never know though

They should mic them during the fight. Seriously. It's the only thing interesting about this "fight".

$100 for the fight, yeah good luck with that. The last time I paid for a Mayweather fight, it was after the 24/7 they did about it, where the dude went to tap gloves and Floyd cold cocked him and knocked him out. Floyd's a douche

I know you gentlebois don't be paying attention to MMA
But Conor McGregor's training partner go KTFO last night
Yeah.. the dude that boxes and stands with McGregor day in and day out
Now.. he fought a KO artist.. and his training partner expertise is on the ground
But still..

That's dumb AF.. Conor never brought out Brandon Rios to camp.
Why would he???? Brandon is nothing like Mayweather in the ring.
Conor is supposedly bringing Paulie out though.
Paulie is a dumb mfr, but he can box.
He is definitely no match to Mayweather's skills or speed though.

If Conor were smart, he'd get Amir into camp.
Amir is big money though.

For sh*ts and giggles, I'd just put $100 on Conor. Got nothing to lose.

I think Floyd went a little too far on his racist tirade a while back and I've never seen him the same since. I don't blame somebody for stirring the pot and generating hype for a fight, but his act has gotten really old.

As much as I would like to see Floyd hit the canvas, he's made champion boxers look like chumps. His only disadvantage is his age. But McGregor is gonna get paid either way so he wins regardless.

To the casual fan

To the casual fan, it might not sound a particularly significant development. On Wednesday, at their rather stuffy monthly meeting, the Nevada State Athletic Commission granted both Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor an exemption to fight in 8oz – rather than 10oz – boxing gloves.

Welcome to the forums.

Since this is not a "New Member Introduction" I moved this thread to the appropriate subsection.

Nope...not even gonna watch. I'll check news later tonight for result but, I would believe the ending to be predictable.

Mr. Hublot will win and also cash in nicely $100M.

Anybody have a GOOD stream link? I know of a site that has links but they always seem to cut out after a few min or are in a foreign language.

Yup, over in the 10th, ref called it. No knock out.
