of course it's stupid, doesn't mean it won't sell. he'll get worked and everybody will feel dumb for spending a $100. i never argued this would be a good fight or something like that, just said from that start that it has a good chance of happening because of the money.

I don't think it's stupid in the least. The fight may suck but people are going to tune in gaining popularity for both sports.

To be fair, this video shows better footage of Conor. The one that Van Heerdan released shows only the parts he dominated Conor. This one shows some of Conor's success in the sparring session.
Obviously, Floyd should win this. I have him winning by unanimous decision. If he finishes Conor it will probably be a TKO in the later rounds once he gasses. But I do believe Conor will win a round or two. And I give him a chance to KO Floyd but it's a slim possibility and will have to be within the first 4 rounds. Floyd is smart so I don't think he will let Conor get in his head, but if he does, and causes Floyd to fight aggressively it could leave a margin for error.
Conor's strengths are Floyds weaknesses. Southpaw with a killer left hand and unpredictable angles. He has significant size and power on Floyd, which along with the age difference, makes things interesting. I'm curious to see how Conor approaches this fight. It will be fun to see how he utilizes MMA angles in a boxing match. Conor has to fight very loose and free to have any chance at winning this. He must avoid basic boxing fundamentals and approach this like an MMA match. If he tries to fundamentally and technichally outbox Floyd he will be outclassed. He has to try to bring his game into Floyds house, must avoid playing Floyds game or he will get dominated.
