Mayweather is in his 40's lol, but they say boxing is more physically demanding than mma stamina-wise.

Scripted match. No way non boxer would last 10 rounds vs world champion.

Same goes the other way around. If they fought MMA style boxer would get suffocated in 20 seconds tops.

This was a bit like those shitty C grade movies where Tyrannosaurus Rex fights Gigantic Shark. Makes no sense but is cheap entertainment for general crowd who watch WWE.

Yes, nothing is ever real Leshma, old men in suits sitting around a darkened room smoking cigars decide how everything happens. Have you ever gotten punched in the face? Knocket out? I volunteer to give you the experience, if you like. You'd have to be a pretty godamn good actor to pull off a script that requires you to get wobbled and dazed. And also a complete retard to compare it to fucking "pro" wrestling, so it doesn't surprise me you made the comparison. Completely appropriate leshmanism.

Way to generalize, Oberyn. I just find it hard to believe that this was proper match because:
- it was a clown match and both fighters are known to be entertainers first then fighters in their respective categories
- it happened during an era where classical fighting disciplines have hit the bottom and are being replaced by clown fiestas like american wrestling, which again, is fully scripted show

This happened because American viewers paid 100 $$$ to watch this one match. Not because you or me wanted to see over illegal stream. Those American viewers watch WWE, this was made for them to enjoy.

Edit: You should watch WWE a little bit more, those actors are very good at faking injuries.

McGregor gameplay seemed to have been go out guns blazing and try to do as much damage as possible in the early rounds. Maywheather's gameplan was to, well, weather the early rounds without exherting himself and drag McGregor to the later rounds he's clearly not used to experiencing. He was gassing out around the 6th/7th already, once he got wobbled in the 8th and Maywheather smelled blood in the water it was done.

"it happened during an era where classical fighting disciplines have hit the bottom and are being replaced by clown fiestas like american wrestling, which again, is fully scripted show"

Absolutely retarded and ignorant, yet declared with complete faith in your own nonexistent knowledge, classic Leshma. Actual fighting disciplines have had a massive uptick in popularity, the heyday of soap opera style american wrestling was the 80's and early 90's. Muay Thai, kick boxing, actual wrestling, judo, BJJ, etc have been growing in popularity and entering the mainstream the last couple of decades. Reality once again is the exact opposite of whatever delusion resides in your head.

Obviously it was scripted, I mean why not? Just go ahead and risk ruining legacies of both fighters and facing massive legal backlash that'd leave both possibly bankrupt, just so that you can.....

Well fuck me, I got nothing. I literally don't know what the supposed benefit here would be of scripting it instead of them fighting for real.


Good fight though, Conor did better than expected. Took up to 5 rounds from Mayweather, who's the greatest of our generation in boxing, albeit clearly somewhat diminished from even two years ago. And the amount of times Conor took Mayweather's back... that'd have been death for Floyd in any other setting than boxing. Pretty much all the pro MMA fighters and boxers tweeted that they were very impressed.

Immediately throwing hammerfists to the sides of the head whenever Floyd gave his back, too many MMA reflexes.

The thing is, Mayweather just sits back and lets everyone swing away at him til they wear themselves out and then he comes in for the strike. He saves all his power until his opponent has used up all their energy (Pacquiao fight anyone?) then attacks them full force when they can't defend themselves. I'm not insulting his tactic, but his tactic beats McGregor's whole fighting style, you can't really do that in kickboxing as you'll end up getting fucked over, in boxing, it's very different. McGregor did well for someone who is the opposite of a professional boxer, but, to be honest, all it takes is to look at Mayweather's style.

In this fight I will admit he was a lot more aggressive, but he was still playing relatively passively throughout the match. Truthfully I think it would have been more interesting if they were both fighting aggressively as hell, then it would have been a game of who gets KO'd first, not who gets worn down and KO'd first.



All in all, McGregor didn't win, but he did land some pretty damn good hits during the fight. Gotta give him credit for that.

Can't blame the guy for sticking to a game plan that works. He didn't go 50-0 by taking unecessary risks.

McGregor would have been put to sleep in 1-2 rounds vs any slugger type boxer like Canelo or GGG. Mayweather isn't really known for his offense and he still stopped him early.



Next good fight will be Canelo vs GGG. I think GGG will knockout Canelo.
