    Um, it's not about that at all. It's about Mayweather cashing a quick $100 million. I can't blame McGregor considering how underpaid MMA guys are.

    I know, it's that bad I think I'd have rather seen Khan get a payday and I really dislike Khan.

    We're talking about a hypothetical fight. If you change the fighters setup then you're also talking about a hypothetical fighter. The waters just became murkier

    Fair however I don't think Floyd will sell his 0 for any amount of $$$$
    He might carry this chump for 2 or 3 rounds but he will not accept a stain on his record

    Well none, but our collective knowledge has advanced considerably. Even from just 20-25 years ago. Nutritionists and other experts have helped with that, as well as the internet spreading the good word.

    I'm not ruling out that most top sportsmen are taking PEDs as well, but you just take a look at Premier League footballers today, almost all of them are ripped today, their BFPs are way down, that wasn't the case 25 years ago.

    Not just nutrition either, but sport's science in general has moved on.

    If you can't be bothered to read all that, I'll give you a quick summary..

    McGregor is bigger, strong and younger, he should just steam in.

    Creatine, Glutamine etc. Better sense of what your diet should be for each particular sport. Also have weight training and plyometric training for speed and power. Also better collective knowledge for boxing and training techniques.

    Creatine puts water into your muscles. Having more water than oxygen in your muscles will have more of a negative effect than a positive on a boxer.

    No it does not have a negative effect. It makes you stronger and faster. The new delivery PH correct creatines don't make you add water anyway.

    It does nothing to improve fighting fitness. What boxers are on creatine ?
