Mayweather v McGregor

[Beebo]

McGregor is a lot heavier that Mayweather. The difference at weigh in was 4lb.
He could be up to a stone heavier than him when the fight starts.

My prediction is that McGregor will be chucking some big bombs in the first few rounds. Looking for a big KO. If Mayweather can avoid these he will out box him in the later rounds.

If this fight is straight then Conor wouldn't last the first round but I suspect they will drag it out for the paying customers.

Lucrative rematch anyone?

"He looks blown out, full of water," said McGregor, 29.

Did this guy do that crazy dehydration thing to weigh in ten kilos lighter than he is?

I do hate the in ya face shouting...

 

[nickyboy]

its standard practice to drop the weight as late as possible and put on 5-10 lbs between the weight in and the fight, it all depends on his walking around weight, McGregor non fight weight is around 170lbs he is never out of shape, with the pre-fight training probably around 162-5lbs so needs to drop about 7lbs-10lbs to make weight which isn't that difficult for most professional fighters,

McGregor said he expected to be about 170lbs for the start of the fight. Is that bullshit? That's 17lbs more than his weigh in. Seems an awful lot to rehydrate

I think Ali had to spend several days in hospital afterwards due the state of his legs from getting kicked

So Boxing has been on the decline for decades, and there is no foreseeable future for it.

UFC has been the new kid in town for a while, tons of fans, loads of coverage, increasing year on year... but not much money in it.

The cynic in me says this is a set up, UFC will win and the money will shift over, and all the managers stay in lucre.

There is no need nor purpose of including the word "so" in your first sentence.

"to include" or "for including", perhaps?

"of" not "for"

40/1 offered on Mayweather for a £1 stake

Maybe this is just put on to get folks gambling.
