My son is a huge fan of Conor McGregor. Hope he pulls off a win.
Which one is the Irishman?
10 to 1 for a 39 year old vs. a 28 year old? I would take that bet in a heartbeat!
In a boxing event, McGregor loses big. This is on par with Rocky v Hulk Hogan in the wrestling wring an exhibition only.
He has no stamina...at least not enough to fend off Mayweather when he hits stride about the 3rd round.
Mayweather trains to stand and contact...and avoid being hit.
McGregor takes hits in his quest to contact beyond a punch and he can't do that in a boxing max with Mayweather.
I realize McGregor can take a punch, but I think Mayweather would literally beat the shit out of him.
But, it matters not, 'cause Mayweather is in the 100 million dollar purse category and the best McGregor and White are offering is a half purse of 50 million.
He won't accept it unless he convinces himself that he can cakewalk it in under two rounds, maybe three.
I'm not taking anything away from either of them, but it is two different arenas and McGregor is severely limited in not being able to contact beyond a clinch after punching...which the ref will be watching for specifically.
There is a reason McGregor is the 10-1 underdog.
I expect Mayweather to dope again like he did for the Pacquiao fight. That said boxing skills will destroy MMA.
