    I expect Conor to be alot slower in the ring than people think. Some people think he'll be this beast early on, that's a mix of Brickhand Margarito with Zab Judah's quickness. I just don't see it. He isn't that quick, and his footwork will be laughable.

    I expect Floyd to Pot Shot for the first 3/4 rounds, without taking a clean shot. Then for him to turn it up and then things will get ugly. McGregor corner stoppage between rounds 6 and 7, if the ref doesn't do it in round 6.

    No clean power shots landed for McGregor.

    People need to realise that we've actually SEEN footage of Conor sparring, and he's awful. He's awful against a guy that we'd tear Floyd apart for fighting. It's a risk free fight for Floyd and he should get as much credit as I should for fighting a toddler.

    Im going to make a prediction that floyd will stop mcgregor in the first round. If it lasts longer, its because floyd would be deliberately carrying him.

    Yeah he definitely looks coked up a lot. During some interviews before the Broner fight he seemed borderline insane.

    Well the reason he doesn't release the video is simple! He doesn't want the world and Floyd to know what he's working on! Lol He is relying on the element of surprise in this fight.

    I hear what you're saying but I honestly don't believe crazier things have happened. Like, the Universe unfolding, maybe. But in sports, in observable historical events, not really too many.

    That's assuming that he still has 90 percent.

    Shot enough to still beat every single person at his weight.

    Firstly I skipped through this thread but if I missed it then I apologise but the thread title asked "how shot is Floyd Mayweather", No Jr after the Mayweather so I'm surprised nobody mention Sr actually getting shot.

    Anyway does anybody else think Mayweather will request a TUE? after all he is 40 and his body isn't what it was, all that wear and tear.

    Man look, you need to work on your reading comprehension. I saw that video too and as I said in the post that you clearly didn't read, that based on Conner's performance in that session, I figured Mayweather was going to beat the breaks off him. Could still happen. Would not surprise me.

    However, clearly Conner has improved because Malinaggi admitted that McGregor got the better of him in sparring as far as the rounds were concerned. So the guy improved. This should be expected.

    This is a dangerous fight. I'm not sure why people are taking this lightly. Floyd certainly isn't...I hope. But it is what it is, but until then, please don't quote me with bull****. Read first or don't quote.

    I think Paulie said McGregor got the better of him in the 11th and 12 rounds when Paulie had nothing left.

    It did sound like McGregor held his own some of the time, which is more than I expected, but still, you need to be doing a lot better than holding your own against a faded boxer who hasn't trained who even in his peak lost to guys that have lost to Mayweather.

    Would love to see the full session but you just know Conor will only release footage that makes him look good. Hope this clown gets knocked the F out.
