McGregor vs Mayweather - Aug 26

99.9% lock my ass. I'd never bet on this high profile of a boxing event with the people currently involved.

Zuffa Boxing offices is where this deal was brokered, not the UFC offices. That's already getting too close to mafia involvement for me. Yeah I know the sons are "clean" according to the Gaming Commission but the Fertittas come from a very well-known and very well-established crime family with deep roots. They don't come from foot-soldiers or drivers or enforcers, they come from leadership.

Without knowing more about who the principles are of McGregor Promotions, the role of the Fertittas and Zuffa Boxing (silent partners?) and the UFC itself-- I'm all fucking set.

I don't touch shit like that in this sport. I just don't like what I'm seeing as far as silent partners, Dana's refusal to answer questions on the details of the deal, the Fertittas role, why the deal was brokered in the Zuffa offices and not at UFC offices. Why Lorenzo Fertitta was the one hosting the meeting has not been answered yet. Not that I would particularly care even if I was given the contract itself, as I have a No Mafiosi Allowed policy on sports betting. Any association at all and I'm out.

Next-level shady-- anyone calling it a 99% lock is a moron.

Rebb, bro I'm usually with you, but if you think Floyd is going to allow himself to lose in his final fight your insane.

He's not even calling it a fight anymore he's calling it an "event". People used to criticize Floyd for "hand picking" opponents, or he got accused of ducking people, until he beat Pacquiao, Cotto, De La Hoya, Marquez and Canelo.

He put those arguments to bed and sured up his resume. But Al Haymon is a smart fucker and Floyd took the fight because it's an automatic W.

He wouldn't of fought GGG or Garcia or any of the other young bangers in the division or up to 154. He wants the "50-0" TBE title and he is going to get it.

Edit: I predict 8th round TKO for Mayweather. McGregor should have somehow petitioned for 10 rounds instead of 12. No way this guy can go into the deep waters of championship rounds.

Take the recent Pacman fight. It hits the judges-- that's where the story begins. You get a situation where you could argue a Draw. That Pacman fight could have been a draw. You had 3 separate large groups of people who had 3 separate conclusions to that fight. One for Pacman, one in favor of a draw, one in favor of Horn. Floyd doesn't need to be involved in his own loss. Just ask Bob Arum.

If Mayweather really wants that 50-0 as much as you say, he better get after a TKO then. Would I place a serious wager on the fight and claim its a 99% sure thing? No. There are DRAWS and NO CONTESTS to consider.

Try 98%

Okay. 98 percent. I can live with that.

Malignaggi called on his bluff; probably on suicide watch now.

Holy fuck Connor scorched him.

He's out on his feet.

Lol @ Malignaggi calling it a push. Looked like head gear saved him from getting ktfo.

Malignaggi talks truth in light of recent revelations.

guess that vid moved the needle
odds just went to
Mayweather -500
McGregor +350

it is tied with numbers from mid july as best for Floyd and worst for Conner

That shit is staged.

Wasn't a push really, but he was pushing down on his neck/head - which is why Cortez didn't call it a knockdown. Regardless, Malignaggi was getting worked in both these clips.

Woooooooooh! That shot after the break was crazy. Just above average power, my ass.

lol This guy needs to shut the fuck up

Jive go do some homework and actually be an actual sports consumer and watch some of the other Connor videos out there.He has looked absolutely fucking TERRIBLE. He has no sense of ringe generalship, or even how to do a basic boxing workout. He cant jab, he cant attack with a rigid sequence and sustain it, he basically just uses odd angles and thinks bolo punches are the apex of pugilism.

That Paulie sparring video is heavily edited, if not outright staged. And no one ever claimed Connor didnt have pop. He does. But so did Canelo, Pacquiao, Judah, Ortiz, Maidana and many others who coudlnt even land 20 percent of their blows. Get real.
