I'd honestly take a dive if I'm Floyd. One loss at this age isn't going to make a difference in regards to his legacy, but losing guarantees he triples his payout by guaranteeing another two fights at monster numbers.

All you gotta do is play up being sick but being willing to fight anyway and then take a dive on a wild haymaker. Is the untarnished record worth the money he could make by diving?

 

[Ross61]

McGregor bout to get that ass beat for the culture.

 

[iPaul93]

FUCK YEAH!I'm so excited to see this!

 

[RecRoulette]

Mayweather just confirmed it on Twitter. I can't believe this shit is actually happening lol

 

[CDX]

could pay each man in excess of $100 million

Damn

Conor McGregor getting paid.

 

[Violence Jack]

Floyd will play around with Conor for 3 rounds before knocking him flat on his ass.

No UFC or McGregor promotions in the ad? huh

Conor will be gassed in two.

 

[slightconfuse]

A fool and his money bare easily parted

I think going undefeated being 50-0 means more to him.

Mayweather has confirmed it:

[Hashmal_Bringer_of_Order]

Thread seems pretty one sided. I have faith Conor will pull through and impress MMA fans everywhere

 

[Sweeney Tom]

Is the untarnished record worth the money he could make by diving?

Absolutely and it's not even close.

Whole lot of people itt and about to be itt who've clearly never followed either sport swearing that 1) Conor has a great chance and 2) Floyd will flop

 

[Dazzler]

This fuckin guy ahahahahaha

All time great tweet/insta post right there

 

[Dynamite Shikoku]

I'd get my arse beat by Mayweather for a round or two for 100 mil too

 

[Future PhaZe]

I think going undefeated being 50-0 means more to him.

200 mill for one loss idk

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

Conor's never fighting in the UFC ever again if he gets 100 million.

 

[Marvel]

Chances Conner get punched and forgets he's boxing and kicks floyd

I can see that.

 

[whytemyke]

Conor will be gassed in two.

CAREFUL! I got called an idiot in the old thread because I said he'd be gassed by the fourth! Don't wanna upset the Conoristas!

 

[Tom_Cody]

Official announcement from Mayweather:

 

[Chumley]

Absolutely and it's not even close.

Whole lot of people itt and about to be itt who've clearly never followed either sport swearing that 1) Conor has a great chance and 2) Floyd will flop

Almost fucking no one besides me and like two other people think Conor is going to win, the vast majority are just talking shit on anyone who even suggests that possibility, or are riding Floyd's dick. I don't know what forum you're reading.

 

[cordy]

Floyd is gonna beat dude's ass.

But they're both making bank so I doubt they give a damn. They both win.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Conor is going to set the PPV record, take his L, cash in his $100 million, ride off into the sunset and make every night red panty night, never to be seen again.

 

[Chris R]

Please be in the T-Mobile Arena

 

[bud]

conor won't gass

he's doing the maclife f.a.s.t. program

his vo2 max is through the roof and he will take off in the latter rounds

 

[BronsonLee]

Please be in the T-Mobile Arena

T-Mobile Tuesday about to be lit

 

[PR_rambo]

I don't think you MMA kids understand. Conor is going to be a joke in the ring. Floyd Mayweather doesn't play at being great. His resume obliterates Mcgregors who's beat like Aldo and that's it.
This fuck is going to do what Pacquaio and Canelo could not? Please. Paulie Malinaggi would probably body that sucker.

Mayweather didn't lose to no Nate Diaz tier mediocrity in his career neither.

I can see him turning up in WWE

I'm an MMA kid and even I understand how bad this is gonna be.

Like, I'm anticipating this to be CM Punk levels of bad.

 

[K.Jack]

Manny Pacquiao could barely get through his defense, and people legitimately think Conor has even a puncher's chance? Manny would 100% kill Conor in 2 rounds max.

Floyd might not stop him, but he will absolutely beat the hell out of him for 12 rounds.

I do think Floyd stops him though. If Nate could daze Conor, Floyd will have his head all kinds of fucked up.

 

[zewone]

McGregor about to shock the world.

This is normal with cross promotion fights in boxing. Each guy usually promotes his own brand/network.

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

Conor would demand like 15 million to appear.

Like Mayweather vs Big Show, McGregor vs HHH will be insane!

Talking down to MMA as if boxing is where real badasses fight is hilarious, because in MMA Floyd would get his head kicked off in two seconds.

 

[dc89]

Floyd is gonna do him over easily.

 

[itwasTuesday]

T-Mobile Tuesday about to be lit

That's why they haven't been handing out vudu rentals.

 

[Barzul]

$100m to take an L. Are you even losing at that point?

 

[Officerrob]

What a joke

 

[El Topo]

Talking down to MMA as if boxing is where real badasses fight is hilarious, because in MMA Floyd would get his head kicked off in two seconds.

But they're not doing a MMA fight.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

I predict Floyd actually breaks rules, takes Conor down and submits him with his superior jiu jitsu.

 

[sam777]

McGregor will win this however if he does lose it will by points.

 

[Breakaway]

This is going to be funny.

 

[Eanan]

Makes it bittersweet, knowing that we will unlikely ever see McGregor fight in the UFC again after this. Was a fun ride though, legendary stuff.

 

[Chumley]

But they're not doing a MMA fight.

Then maybe that guy should check himself before saying "MMA kids".

 

[old]

I don't want to bet on the fight. That's too easy.

I want to bet that it get delayed due to injury.

 

[Maoyama]

This is normal with cross promotion fights in boxing. Each guy usually promotes his own brand/network.

Ok cool. So were gonna see some UFC branded boxing posters? Thats gonna be weird

 

[Chuck Norris]

Baby we did it! Floyd Mayweather made us rich baby! Break out the red panties

 

[NYR]

McGregor will win this however if he does lose it will by points.

Yes, that one boxing match he didn't have was incredible, the way he has never thrown a professional boxing punch was to much to overcome for his no opponents, definitely deserving of his amazing flawless record of 0-0 and will easily beat a top 10 boxer of all time who has never lost.
