Biggest fight of the year. MMA's megastar vs the undefeated boxing legend, in a Boxing ring, under boxing rules.

Conor has a heavy youth advantage. A slight size advantage. Mayweather has so much boxing experience though and is a pretty big favorite according to betting odds in a boxing ring. He's old though, does he have what it takes if he takes even one clean punch from Conor McGregor?

Lol, I think calling it the "biggest fight of the year" is a bit of a stretch. XD But I think Mayweather is going to win by his usual tactic of being evasive and taking advantage of boxing's flawed point system. But I don't really care who wins, tbh. I'm not even going to watch the fight. It's just a stupid money fight that no one even asked for that will probably be as eventful as the Mayweather v. Pacquiao fight.

@WindOfAdolf The media is certainly hyping it up as such but most fight fans are largely indifferent about this fight, especially in the MMA fan community. I'd say the Jon Jones vs. Daniel Cormier rematch is much more anticipated among avid fight fans. I think we're on two separate hype trains but hey, agree to disagree.

[c=#7700B2]I agree but I think Floyd will be stupid to try getting up so close to conor to try and hug up against the ropes.. Conor fights normally avoiding clinching.. I think Conors biggest advantage is that he is not a boxer and will fight and move different to anyone Floyd has fought before.. conor normally lands that left hook of his out of no where, I think if Floyd tries hugging him so much that he will soon enough get caught with getting that hit... Floyd should try avoiding conors reach as much as possible, conor could take floyds punches and counter it with his own.. I know who would get the better hit[/c]

How come everybody says Floyd "will mop the floor" with Conor? Has anybody saying this actually seen McGregor fight? 90% of Conor's wins are from striking because he is a much better fighter on foot than he is on the ground. His knockouts are from punching his opponent, not getting him into an arm bar on the ground or wrestling with him. If there is an MMA fighter that can actually beat Floyd, it's McGregor because his boxing is far better than anyone else in the UFC at his weight. And nobody is mentioning that Floyd hasn't fought anybody in almost two years and is "fooking" 40 years old! Conor is in his athletic prime at 28 and Floyd might be the first fighter to have to bring his walker into the ring. If McGregor lands one good punch to the jaw, the paramedics better be ready to go restore Floyd's dentures.

[c=#7700B2]people underestimate Conor and it is kinda ridiculous. he is pretty great at stand up fighting and that is when he has to look out for kicks, takedowns and so on.. just boxing, he will be even better... Conor also has knockout power. when was the last time Floyd ever knocked someone out? well over 15 years now I think..
I think Floyd doesn't really stand a chance in this personally[/c]

Mayweather easily, unless McGregor manages to land a lucky punch.

@WindOfAdolf To be honest, I've never seen McGregor fight but going by what I've read, his style will just get picked off under boxing rules. He could have learnt some boxing skills really quickly, but I'd be surprised.

General expectation is that Mayweather will mop the floor with Floyd and the fight will be disappointing, 100 bucks a PPV buy ripoff.

@CaptainCanadia it's a big no risk pay day for both. It's extremely unlikely that Mayweather will lose and McGregor can't lose any reputation as no one expects him to win.

@WindOfAdolf I could be a little unfair. I admit to knowing nothing about MMA. McGregor did start in boxing, not sure he ever stood out as a junior.

Mayweather...but the real winner will be Floyd and Conor's bank accounts. Easy money.

It's going to be the biggest waste of my time since, well since the last time I watched Mayweather. I'll be hoping that Conor knocks him out cold, but I'm not even going to pretend that I think that's likely.
