    Truth hurts. Not my fault you guys try to give your make believe heroes make believe victories. If you say Connor is a better speaker, sure. That's fantastic! As far as who is more effective being the actual better **** talker. Floyd> period

    Chris Eubank Sr


    'My qualification is 35 years in the professional game since 1983 sparring New York pros, since 1999 advising other professionals the ilk of Naz, Lennox, Howard Eastman and since 2007 Junior, getting him in Top Rank gym of pros and guiding his rise to pinnacle. It is 43 professional fights before defeat, holder of the longest unbeaten run in boxing during its strongest era, and five world title defeats in back-and-forth wars without quitting or being knocked out. Winning back-and-forth wars when I supposedly should've quit.'


    'Conor McGregor is bigger, stronger, longer, younger, fresher, livelier and more active than Floyd Mayweather. He is infact 11 or 12 years his junior. You look at their skulls and jaws and fists in the face-offs, and he has a significantly stronger, denser, larger structure, does Conor McGregor. Canelo was bigger and younger and started slowly. Conor McGregor would have to use his advantages from the get-go by marauding in and mauling and hustling the older man; he has to pick up an early lead to draw Mayweather and the only way to do thus is not boxing him - you can't box him, he's the best at that.

    'Do you understand? Floyd uses six inches of tape on his fist and throws the right hand on its own at his advanced ages; there is no stopping a big man like McGregor coming in. There is no reason then McGregor cannot build up a lead after four rounds, unless he crosses his feet and doesn't let his hands go.

    'Floyd will take longer to nail down his distance and timing if you rush him with unorthodox technique, he is already ring rusty as it stands. When he would find his range and start timing McGregor is when you stop rushing and draw those leads to counter Money Mayweather hard. You don't do it the other way round or you get well and truly schooled.'

    Mayweather is 40, hasn't fought in nearly two years and looked way less then stellar against Berto.

    Floyd's going against someone who has no boxing experience but is younger, bigger, longer and is probably hungrier. McGregor has nothing to lose and besides cashing in on a massive pay check, he may cash in on one of sports biggest upsets.

    To say he has no chance is ignorant. The odds may be stacked against him but he does have chance, NO DOUBT ABOUT IT!!

    Well, this is a joke, but usually jokes are funny, this one is not, it's sad that gullible people will pay their hard earned money to get cheated.....................WWE.................it appears to be..................Void will laugh all the way to the bank, so will Conor............this will be very prefabricated, will they both stick to the script?

    Connor must hurt Floyd -badly, to stand a chance using his power.
    He has a 4 round window, after 5th, Conor is spent.

    To be fair Floyd Joy has only fought guys older and shorter than him when you think about it and who were coming up in weight. He wanted nothing of Paul Williams, Tszyu or Margarito remember

    yes he has a chance, but it's so slim it's pretty much no chance.

    Early he has a tiny itty bitty sliver of a puncher's chance, but Floyd will play catch me if you can for the first 3 or 4 rounds and after that, he has zero chance.

    Good point. I just don't recall MW having his security that prominently on display before. But then again this is a different situation and the audience might have gotten involved under the barrage of insults-especially the humiliation of the national flag incident. Also Connors has the bad habit of losing it during such encounters. Then again if he can't fully trust Connors or the crowd there during promotion why fully trust him and his fans during a match? IMHO money isn't worth the risk of getting either killed or paralyzed.

    BTW
    I wasn't familiar with the Pacman incident you mention. I am familiar with what happened to Gallota after he flagrantly fouled and How Bernard was chased by Trinidad fans in Puerto Rico for the way he hurled the PR flag to the ground..

    You can't disagree. It's a novice boxer going in with an ATG.

    McGregor wouldn't be a sparring opponent for top fighters let alone a threat in a real fight.

    Both are making crazy money for a fight which will be completely one sided.
