    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I do think it's funny that a lot of people who say McGregor has a chance, anyone has a chance in a fight/sport, probably would say Mayweather has zero chance to beat McGregor in an MMA match. I'd agree that Mayweather would have no shot against McGregor in an MMA match and I think McGregor has no chance against Mayweather in a boxing match.

    In either case, the only way that wouldn't be true is if the enormous favorite literally didn't take it seriously and didn't try to defend himself. I don't see that happening, though.

    You admit though that if they were in an octagon, he'd be down and out in about 20 seconds.

    All I hope for is that the fight lives up to the hype. I hope its a great fight, a fast paced brawl.

    Curious how the people on here who think we will win 50 games and have HCA in the playoffs this season think this fight will go? If you apply the same common sense and logic to this, Conner will knock out Floyd and win right?

    I think Marvin Hagler was the best ever...right or left handed...to me the greatest of all time.

    I want a first round knockout....bring some respect back to traditional boxing. Mayweather is representing my favorite form of the fight game...I'm not a fan of cage fighting or MMA

    They should have 3....one with boxing rules, one with MMA rules, and one anything goes. 3 stages of hell.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    The anything goes fight includes any weapon you can procure and operate. Being the last of the three, it's to the death.

    I want McGregor to win this. Mayweather is a punk. Plus I'm Irish. I think Floyd is going to try and tire out McGregor, and pound his gut. McGregor has to come out, land his punches and land them hard and take out Mayweather. The longer the match the more in mayweathers favor it is.

    No, they should have 1 fight, with MMA rules in the final round if Conor could last that long.

    Slim. He seems pretty disciplined to me. I'm rooting hard for mcgregor. Fuck that scumbag mayweather, nothing would make me happier than to see him get knocked unconscious.

    It could go the distance. Mayweather is not a stopper. He's a counterpuncher. So a lot will depend on how aggressive Conor is. Conor is really gonna have problems this mach IMHO.
