The issue with the whole punching his forehead strategy is it requires McGregor to actually time and position his forehead to meet Floyd's punches in the first place.

 

[DOBERMAN INC]

Just to see how crazy the impact on combat sport would be and because he is still young I would like to see McGregor win,but honestly my prediction is Floyd by 6th round stoppage or towel.

 

[2blackcats]

I like an underdog in any situation. We know Floyd got this, but hopefully Conor doesn't fold and look for a way out. I want to see him do something significant.

After this, I expect to see Conor in Fast and Furious 9. You know how Hollywood likes to capitalize on popular figures.

An under dog who doesn't beat up women has my vote.

McGregor may not have any official boxing experience, but he knows how to slip a punch, which is harder than blocking with the forehead. I think skill wise he's perfectly capable of pulling it off, let's see if he actually wants to do it.

Sounds like something out of a Guy Ritchie film, hopefully they give him a mic so he can narrate the whole thing for the audience. While I think he might dip into some sketchy shit I doubt he's going to go for fucking up Floyds hands especially when he could quite easily fuck it and himself up in the process.

 

[A Pretty Panda]

Mayweather's turn with Jim Gray.

https://youtu.be/sw_KhGygmvw

Halfway through this. So far it's been "well he might beat me! Please believe me!"

 

[kodecraft]

Weigh-in time.

 

[Macattk15]

Paulie still salty.

 

[EarlyEarly]

Not the face, the top of the skull.

I 100% no joke, expect the fight to go exactly like this:

https://youtu.be/43OFK1RuKoM

This guy linked a movie. I'm done.

 

[darscot]

I can not believe they have not replaced Paulie, he is already talk shit. Conor filling the vacuum left by Rousey, LOL.

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

if i don't hear one tope suicada by mauro i'll sue

 

[darscot]

You are a comedian right?

I think its nonsense, I was just trying to clarify what other people were saying about blocking punches with your head.

 

[kodecraft]

I can not believe they have not replaced Paulie, he is already talk shit. Conor filling the vacuum left by Rousey, LOL.

Replace him for what. The guy speaks boxing. He will do his job tomorrow night. Alot of Conor fans just don't like what Paulie is saying about their fighter.

 

[sam777]

You would think they are fighting in Ireland.

 

[Sickness702]

Conor looks lethargic, no energy. Maybe the weight draining thing is true

 

[2blackcats]

Lol at the Irish flag landing on mayweather.

 

[darscot]

He is so fucking salty and acting like a bitch right now its embarrassing. Him saying Conor stepped out of Rousey shadow is nonsense. I have no problem with a homer but just own it.

 

[Euphor!a]

Conor looks lethargic, no energy. Maybe the weight draining thing is true

I feel like people saying this don't realize he used to to cut to 145 regularly, 154 is nothing.

 

[Mesousa]

Halfway through this. So far it's been "well he might beat me! Please believe me!"

He has to try to sell the fight man.

 

[Macattk15]

CoNoR iS gOnNa MiSs WeIgHt

 

[redhot_]

153, easy.

 

[kodecraft]

CoNoR iS gOnNa MiSs WeIgHt

Nope.

 

[Tekniqs]

Floyd looks chiseled

Conor already starting shit hahaha

lol even the guy weighin him in is getting in on the action "back the fuck up!"

 

[bbd23]

lmao the weigh in dude has had enough

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

I have abs like Floyd.

 

[Macattk15]

Conor might end up 30 lbs heavier than Floyd come tomorrow night.

Nope.

That was heavy sarcasm.

 

[sam777]

Floyd putting his shoes on before the face off to look taller lol.

 

[kodecraft]

Floyd putting his shoes on before the face off to look taller lol.

Yep, I saw that.

 

[Calderc]

Did...did Conor have a semi?

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

Conor might end up 30 lbs heavier than Floyd come tomorrow night.

So even slower???

 

[Tekniqs]

Man...i'd love to look bloated too Conor hahaha

who's the heaviest Floyd fought fight night? Was Ortiz 165 fight night?

 

[shadow_shogun]

Did...did Conor have a semi?

Nah, B. That was full on.

 

[Psychotext]

lol, Conor sounds out of breath just standing there.

 

[thefro]

Floyd putting his shoes on before the face off to look taller lol.

Big hat too. Dude is shook.

 

[Sickness702]

I feel like people saying this don't realize he used to to cut to 145 regularly, 154 is nothing.

I don't care what he did in the past, if he had to lose weight over night it can't be good. He has no sweat, he is kinda pale in the face.

 

[Calderc]

lol, Conor sounds out of breath just standing there.

His face has caved in.

 

[Syder]

I don't believe Floyd is going to be more aggressive



and I don't believe Conor is going to be as aggressive as he says he will be

 

[Weckum]

His face has caved in.

Yup, looks like he had a rough cut.

 

[darscot]

Have you guys never seen a guy at weigh ins? This is completely normal. Did you guys never see him at 145.

 

[Euphor!a]

I don't care what he did in the past, if he had to lose weight over night it can't be good. He has no sweat, he is kinda pale in the face.

Yeah, that is what professionals do, they lose 16+ pounds overnight. God, you people are just hilarious.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

I don't care what he did in the past, if he had to lose weight over night it can't be good. He has no sweat, he is kinda pale in the face.

I though he looked unhealthy walking in.
His body looks alright but his face looks off.
Plenty of time to eat some cheeseburgers though.

 

[Psychotext]

The dick too?

 

[darscot]

The dick too?

Ha ha yes

 

[Euphor!a]

Of course not, but now they are all experts all of a sudden. Out of breath, not sweating, lol...

Edit: Also, he looks pale lol... Really, the Irish guy looks pale? Shocker.

 

[shadow_shogun]

Why do they keep booing Floyd? Must be demoralizing as a mofo.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

I don't believe Floyd is going to be more aggressive



and I don't believe Conor is going to be as aggressive as he says he will be

.

 

[Syder]

Conor has looked far worse than that after weight cuts

 

[MastAndo]

Floyd putting his shoes on before the face off to look taller lol.

Lol, and all his shoes have lifts in them.

Conor clearly just playing mind games with Floyd though. He looks ripped up. It's amazing how gaunt Conor looks right now though. He's gonna fill up overnight though.

 

[Tekniqs]

I though he looked unhealthy walking in.
His body looks alright but his face looks off.
Plenty of time to eat some cheeseburgers though.

it's mostly water weight they'll regain in the next 24 hours

paulie "i hope it's not [conor's] last fight." LOL he wants some too
