Mayweather vs. McGregor

Lengthy statement from Conor post fight. Good stuff.

But damn who is UFC's new golden boy now?

Connor said he'll fight Nate Diaz if he can come in at 155...that's like 20 lbs lighter.

Jon Jones is fired.

Ronda Rousey has my kid and GSP is old and off the roids.

Tony, serious question.

Do you honestly think this fight means boxers are better fighters than MMA guys, or do you realize it just means Mayweather is a better boxer than MacGregor? Meaning, two different sports with two different rules.

I personally think it means Mayweather was a superior boxer. No different than MacGregor would win in an MMA fight. I say this because it's obvious and the opposite has happened with Couture. It seems you are taking this personally and can't separate the two.
This thread has posters in it saying that Connor was "stopped early."

WTF


If you mma homers truly think that


I can't do anything for you,son.

I believe it was stopped early, thats my opinion and I don't speak for everyone. I mean they both signed up to be an all out war at least thats what they were hyping it out to be. Conor McGregor stated, he was mentally ok just fatigued, the ref didn't even ask him if he was alright he just stopped the match. There's early stoppages in MMA too, and I still get upset either way.

Just my opinion, its not like I spam boxing threads or go around calling boxing fans - fanboys or homers. Its just my opinion.

The ref did what he had to do. CM probably took 20 punches without returning a single one. I know they all didn't connect, but pretty sure it would've been stopped regardless of who was fighting. Just cuz they both said they wanted a war, doesn't mean the ref is gonna let one dude get killed.

I agree with you though, I wish they wouldve let it go on. It wouldn't have been for much longer though. CM was about to go down and he probably wouldn't have gotten back up due to fatigue or his brain rattling around.

Oh so the ref should have allowed possible permanent brain damage to Conor because you wanted to see blood? Makes perfect sense.

Dude got punched like 10 times in the head, had his arms down not even attempting to protect himself.

You're right the ref did his job, but I think if he waited just 30 more seconds CMG would've fell like a tree. $100 PPV at least let us see someone fall. Lol

Yeah don't worry about the fighters health. People paid good money to see some brains get scrambled. Stupid boxing!

I think you need to watch it again, Mayweather threw about 10 shots bit really only landed 3 good ones. The last shot when McGregor ducked it didn't even connect. Only if Mayweather had the power to knock people down he could've ended 3 rounds earlier.

Anyway I didn't really give a s**t about this now and I even more over than I was before. Moving on......

Conor was staggering around the ring which also factors in. That's not fatigue that's possible signs of a concussion. He wasn't protecting himself so the fight is going to be stopped. If Conor was more experienced it may of played out differently but the ref is only looking out for his safety.
