    this is a brilliant move by Loma

    Loma's offer has a financial upside attached to it, in the form of increased tickets sales for McGregor-Mayweather, if McGregor can get Loma in camp, and somehow manage to take a few photos of the sort released to the presss from the Malinaggi sparring sessions.

    And we all know McGregor loves money. But McGregor will turn this offer down and when he does, we'll know there's only one reason why, which is that McGregor believes he'll get his ass kicked.

    McGregor brought in Pauli Malignaggi ostensibly as a sparring partner to do what sparring partners do, but it certainly seems that was just a pretext--the real reason Pauli was brough into camp is so that McGregor's camp could release a few carefully selected photos that appear to show McGregor working Pauli, all with the purpose of selling more tickets for McGregor-Mayweather.

    Loma has many times the profile that Pauli does--he's on nearly every P4P list, and he's No 1 on some of those.

    McGregor would love to get Loma in camp and do to Loma what McGregor did to Malignaggi.

    McGregor's camp clearly believed that the Malinaggi photos would raise interest in the McGregor-Mayweather freak show; so the thought of having more photos but this time that show Loma getting worked....no telling how many additional millions in ticket sales that would be worth.

    i would bet anything McGregor badly wants to invite--for every reason he wanted Malignaggi in his camp, but about 1000x more

    but McGregor won't do it, because a guy who is even smaller than Pauli would read him and then make McGregor look like a mid-tier amateur boxer (which he is)

    Void has been 100% guaranteed a win, it's impossible for Void to lose a decision in Vegas, totally impossible! So bet your life savings on Void...............

    A fortnights worth of job seeker allowance. :p jk But I am kind of broke at the minute. Don't have enough to really make a profit unless I made it part of an accumulator.

    Lomachenko would make a total fool out of Conor........................a Lomachenko/Conor fight would be much more exciting than Conor/Void. All Void will have to do is just lay on the ropes and play defense, let his judges win the fight for him. This will be Conor's very first boxing fight! Think about it. Anyone who buys this fight, well...........I have a bridge I will sell them............

    treat the fight for what it is and invite some friends over to split the bill, beers and a bbq and you have yourself a ****ing cheap and great time

    i think your going to run into a snag when you arrive at the "invite some friends" stage :). love you

    I would imagine he would deal with it similar to how he dealt with Walters. Conor would have bigger cojones than Nicholas, which would just mean a bigger beating for longer. Loma would completely dismantle Conor I would be very surprised (genuinely) if Conor even landed more than a couple punches per round regardless of how many he throws. The beating that Floyd will give Conor wouldnt even come close to what Loma would do to him in a few rounds

    Ohhh Lomo.... Focus on solving your Salido problem first.. Get rid of that ghost.. and I dont care how many times he got tagged on the ballzzzzack or if Salido was a cow on fightnight... I know Ive seen the fight but a loss is a loss... And he waited too much on that fight and after all he is the one who asked for it... Make the rematch happen and then after he beats him clearly and I think he will then Ill jump on that wagon... Maybe

    The thing is I don't see Floyd throwing the fight, and in regards to a rematch... they could do that in the cage.
