    sounds like a great game plan but conor will gas very quickly using those tactics. floyd will make conor look like ricky hatton. sure conor might be bigger and stronger than ricky but he also has less skill and stamina.

    i see floyd jabbing conor to the body and picking him apart with straight right leads and check hooks. conor will try roughing floyd up in the clinch and be deducted a point. floyd tko round 7.

    It's over inside 4rounds most probably. You can gas quickly.

    Conor speaks truth about inside 4rounds.

    You pure boxing people need let go idea of traditional boxing match,slow 12round pace fight.

    brutal fast fight it's going to be. Time is Conor enemy here too.

    Floyd needs to survive Conor mad attack to win. Or stop him(probably lot
    of openings)

    Change your name to Salt 88, more befitting of a man of your salt.

    No thanks, I've heard about guys like you and their penchant for salty things.

    Where's Chef when you need him?

    How much do people think Cotto vs. Kamegai will draw casual viewers away from this?

    Probably only a small minority will recognize that in fact the former is a more compelling fight. In fact who except diehards even knows about Kamegai?

    Boxing can use a personality like it used to have instead of Mayweather and Pac Man wasting how many years getting a deal done?
    Can Mayweather ruin boxing twice?
    Once with his boring axx fights and ducking guys in their prime
    Twice? not kcocking out McGregor
    Can Floyd top himself?

    I don't get why people think Floyd will win via stoppage. The guy never goes for the kill. He's a potshotter who knows to outpoint his opponent rather than destroy him, even if he can.

    Conor isn't a boxer. But he is a fighter. He's taken strikes from bigger, stronger men with smaller gloves. He's got a chin (but wait, MMA fighters never get attacked to the body, that's where Floyd will KO him!), so unless you see a flurry coming from Floyd like it's 2006 again, he's dancing to victory.

    Boxing is the sweet science. It's certainly a different beast than MMA. No doubt about it. But to see what he did to Aldo and Alvarez, two top guys in their divisions, proves the guy can bang. I am a boxing fan first and foremost, but I watch high profile MMA bouts and respect the differences between the two.


    All told, I think this whole farce is set for a trilogy. First in the squared circle (Mayweather easy win). Then the octagon (Conor easy win). Then the rubber match who knows where, perhaps under a circus tent. Maybe they become billionaires at the expense of the naive, me included.
