>>77867565
Conor held his own for quite some time desu. He just didn't know how to open up Mayweathers defence. Desu McGregor lost the fight but the entire time all i could focus on was McGregor himself. Mayweather's purely defensive style isn't very entertaining

Fuck MMA. Going to start watching boxing exclusively now. Hope it takes over again.

>>77867728
Yeah I'm not denying that. I'm just saying that boxing is about entertainment, and Floyd is second to Conor in that regard

>>77864581
>how PATHETIC does MMA look right now?
It doesnt?

Listen I was for Floyd all the way, and I bet on an 8th round TKO (I was close enough imo), but does this mean I see Connor as less now that he lost? or MMA for that matter?
Of course not, they're RADICALLY diffrent sports, as an amature Boxer I know this well. MMA fighters arent conditioned for endurance like boxers are, so put a MMA fighter in A boxing ring, I always got money on the boxer

Put a Boxer in an octagon, I always got money on the MMA fighter, becuase MMA is their speciality

Its simple nuance, and people are seeming to miss that here.

Floyd is Fine tuned in his craft which is boxing, thats why he won, it does discredit anything, it just shows that the sports are more diffrent than simmilar. Becuase put Floyd in McGregors craft and its Conor all day.

MMA is still awesome, and so is boxing, and as a fan of both sports, watching two powerhouses from their resepcive sports come together, made my eyes as wide as dinner plates with excitement. even if i knew the outcome...

>>77864581
This should've been a kick boxing match, there should've been a middle ground reached so one fighter wouldn't have been so handicapped

>>77867745
Cool, thats true. Mayweather is second to conor entertainment. This was the only pretty boy fight where I rooted for him. And that was only because conor made it so intriguing. You cant deny that the notorious steps up the game

I remember the bet between /box/ and /heem/ was that the loser is exiled to /asp/. Guess whitebois pussied out of that like everything else they do in life.

You guys realize that was LITERALLY planned by Floyd, not only to study his technique, but to give his fans a show, and to get people excited about boxing again by giving them an entertaining fight. Conor was an absolute fucking mess the entire fight and his love taps that he was hitting Floyd with had literally zero effect. You goddamn fucking casuals.

Conor was already completely gassed at Round 5, that's only 15 minutes in the fight and only 3 rounds in MMA. Conor has always had shit stamina.

His only hope was for a miracle Round 1 or 2 KO and Conor himself knew that.

The mick landed a punch so he did better than I expected. Floyd went easy on him for a few rounds to have a look, and for fan service, then slowly took him apart at leisure.

>>77868193
>The so-called 'power' of mma punches being a fucking huge fail, no, that was not a surprise either.
Connor looked terribly slow, stiff and weak IMO. If that is the best striking MMA has to offer, well...

don't be an idiot. 10 rounds is pre gud. Boxing got embarrassed. the fight would have been 12 seconds if it was MMA. And if you compare the Refs ruling of TKO to how long they let the Jones/DC fight go, its clear which is the pussy sport. Poor Mcregor just didnt know taking a hit or two on the ropes was enough for the ref to call it before someone gets hurt!

>>77868165
McGregor would've done better if had known do put up both hands in a double guard instead dropping his hands when he's in the ropes with punches raining in on him. Or At least have some form of meaningful head movement or shoulder rolls. I know putting both gloves up doesn't look good but what else are you supposed to do when the shit hits the fan? Also if you're tired and can't do much else you can at least put your hands up.

>>77868228
Lol, true, you think by now his hands would have built up enough strength just from sheer trauma

Anything below is full of numales with no stamina.

>>77867728
>Mma youngins dont know patience and composure.
I mean your not wrong. MMA is more an all out fight. you cant just sit back and play defensively. Connor is used to all out fights and this is more a chess game. But it also shows why MMA is way more entertaining look at the Diaz fight, fuckers go all out the whole time. Boxing doesnt work that way, you can play defensively or conservatively because it wont end with you being kicked in the face or put in a hold.

McGregor is the hipster meme fighter getting trained by hipster meme coaches (Ido Portal anyone?). The results are predictable.

>>77868304

McGregor spent 5 rounds walking around like a zombie while Mayweather used his face as a punching back. Ever time Floyd threw a right hand the dumb pikey just stood there and let him land.

It was an absolute horror show for the potato nigger and he's going to have a very sore head this morning

>>77868530
Did he really do that? No assesment even?

>>77868374
I totally agree, thats why they're different sports. Mma is more on the edge of your seat anticipation, because anything can happen at any time. Im also interested in the sweet science approach of boxing because generally the superior fighter who trains harder and has a better game plan usually prevails.

>>77867997
Unironically this, right after the fight Floyd said how he watched McGregor in MMA fighting. He lasted on average 25 minutes before he gets tired.

Mayweather knew if he could keep him at distance for 6 rounds, he would win.
Nigger may not be able to read but he sure knows how to prepare his game.

>>77868521
oh no, not at all blaming him he made the best decision possible for himself and his family much respect but that dumb bong was saying "he's the very best UFC has to offer" which couldn't be further from the truth.

>>77868581
>he's the very best UFC has to offer
In terms of boxing he probably is. But its a bit like being the best soccer player in the NFL. A very odd and useless stat. Not to say Connor isnt impressive in the octagon.

Conor was doing a whole lot of running my friend

>>77868572

Connor explicitely didn't have boxing trainers for the Mayweather gig (I refuse to call it a fight) so he "wouldn't get confused". Not kidding.

>>77867838

I agree with you, but you're stating the obvious.

Anyone with some semblance of a working brain knows that Floyd won because Floyd is a world champion boxer, and that Conor would have worked Mayweather over just the same if they'd been in the octagon.

>>77868572
Lol, when your the richest athlete on the planet, you pay others to read for you. Can you imagine that type of power? To not be able to do what 8 year olds do and become a billionaire?

Could McGregor take Canelo or Lomachenko? I'd love to watch him try.

>>77868670
>Conor would have worked Mayweather over just the same if they'd been in the octagon.
No he wouldn't. It would be 12 seconds max. that's the one problem with MMA. a skill imbalance to that proportion would never turn to a multiple round fight.

>>77868697
In boxing? Fuck no. As Conor himself said Mayweather faught like a mexican moving forward and all, but that's not his natural fighting style. He's a defensive boxer who put enough pressure onto Conor have him constantly walk backwards. If a real mexican would've knocked the shit out of him.

>>77868697
If McGregor had chosen someone who could punch, he'd be in the hospital right now. There's a reason he wanted Moneyweather.

Imagine he had taken Hatton or Pacman out of retirement. Hard KO in the 3rd.

>>77868697

>>77868736

Sorry, Anon. I wasn't saying that a UFC match-up between McGregor and Mayweather would have lasted the same amount of time.

Rather, I meant that the outcome would almost naturally have been determined from the start.

Floyd is a two division UFC champ. He might not be the best wrestler, but he's decimated most of his opponents. His job is owning the octagon, where's Floyd has made more than a living in the ring.

They're two related but tangibly different proficiency - for instance, somebody who works at a call center for Marathi customers in Pune wouldn't be able to switch jobs and immediately exceed the sales figures of a man offering computer repairs to Americans from Gurgaon, even if the jobs have similar descriptions.

I think most folks here understand that principle.

>>77868805
How could be anything else. There's only so many hours in a day and a guy who puts more hours into boxing will be better at boxing than a guy who does movement, BJJ, kickboxing, and whatever else Conor does.

McGregor had some good head movement in the first 5 rounds with a couple of nice counter punches which shocked floyd a little, he probs didnt think he was going to get hit when he did but desu as everyone says he just adjusted and took him apart.

I still would've liked to have seen it go the distance, a few heavy punches would've been thrown in the 11th & 12th the second wind is no bs, they drop their arms like that in MMA to shut the muscles off and have a breather, he probably wouldn't have been knocked out. I mean hes been rocked by Nate Diaz a few times when he was gassed in both of their fights.

>>77868805
*cough* Holm vs Rousey *cough*
If Holm is a boxer so is Mcregor. but yes Mayweather would kick Mcregor in the face for a KO like Holm you giant fucking retard. Because thats boxing appearantly. and yes, specialists win, so what?
Mcregor in the octagon against Mayweather would be a joke. I mean if he wanted to fuck with him he could kick him or spam shin kicks like diaz round two. But if he wanted an instant win he could just take him down. I mean his ground game is probably terrible, but just by virtue of fighting MMA its probably better than Maywhether could ever get if he dedicated the rest of his life to it. If you have never fought a Jiu Jitsu expert you will probably end up in a hold before you even register that you touched gloves.

Lomachenko would be like 30lb smaller but would still do a number on him tbqh.

Canelo would put him straight unconcious, no commission should sanction that fight.

Although it didn't look THAT bad, like 'Hatton getting sparked out flat bad', boxing is very deceptive. He took one hell of a sustained beating. I wouldn't be surprised if he's shaky as fuck today and will probably be meeting with head doctors very soon.

McGregor did some amateur boxing when he was a kid. Hardly comparable.

Why do grapplers believe this? I've been doing full contact karate for years before starting Judo and had no problems at all on the ground. And I'm no pro fighter with elite talent.

None of that was relevant to her kicking Ronda Rousey in the face, anymore than Tim Tebows college football skills magically help him play baseball.
>Why do grapplers believe this? I've been doing full contact karate for years before starting Judo and had no problems at all on the ground.
You are also experienced in martial arts and not fighting UFC talent. Mcregor gets away with stand up striking because he knows how to avoid it. The best punches in the world aren't helpful if you can't avoid a hold. A street for instance a take down and hold is going to do you better than just swinging at the fucker. You seriously think a 40 year old man with no experiance could avoid a takedown?

by punching them though. today shows that he doesn't have enough power to hurt a real boxer and that UFC fighters can't defend or take a punch.

Yes, do something to defend yourself at least. I think he knew his only chance at that point was to catch floyd with something, though, so he was looking for the counter left. He was desperate, and took the loss on the chin.

is this shit b8 or did you mistype 'died'

One constant fallacy that continues to be repeated and needs to stop is that a younger person should be stronger and have more stamina than an older person. It's not true and it's never been true. Old man strength is real. Any military members here know what I'm talking about. Those 40+ year old vets that are still in and actively train constantly outrun and outpushup the 20 year olds, and they seem to do it without tiring. The longer you train and eat correctly, the stronger and fitter you will become, obviously up to a certain age, but Floyd definitely isn't close to hitting that wall. All these years of training and boxing has given him a gas tank the size of an oil rig. I knew this fight was going to end with Conor gassed out. I'd also bed that Conor trains with a lot of yes-men and didn't spend the time he needed learning to box against super-defensive fighters like Floyd.

>>77869361

all I need to know is that a man famous for his left hand couldn't hurt a 40 year old who hadn't even sparred for 2 years - even on the few occasions where he managed to hit him.

laughable.

>>77869450
>box against super-defensive fighters like Floyd.

except floyd walked him down and blitzed his face the entire fight

How much they earned?

>>77869450
That's because at exactly 40 year old (or 35 sometimes) there's peak strength and peak technique. Older than that the strength starts decaying.

Like Olympic Weightlifting. Those who beat records are usually 35+. They still have enough strength and power and lots of experience.

>>77869443
admittedly I watch more MMA than boxing so our definitions of " a lick" might be different. but there is a difference between calling it after a few bad hits in a losing rounds, where he is fully capable of going WTF about it right away and an actual TKO. a UFC ref would have allowed another 2 rounds of that, with 4oz gloves. I mean its not a pissing contest of the sports, but thats what Mcgregor receives regularly. I imagine he woke up 10x as sore after going 5 rounds with Diaz than he will tomorrow.

>>77869296
Lol, did you watch the fight? Floyd walked through conors best punches, then treated mcgregor like a punching bag. Conor put everything he had in those punches, gassed, then lost to a 40 year old retiree.

>Id take that beating 100x over the beatings hes taken in winning UFC fights.

so youd rather your brain got fucked up rather than your face?

Neutral here, if anything this makes boxing look like a joke.

An MMA fighter who's never boxed before held their own with the best boxer in his weight division for 10 rounds. Did pretty decent until he got tired too. It showed that a boxer can't knock out an MMA fighter with one blow as opposed to what many boxfags would want you to believe. Had it been an MMA fight or an actual fight Mayweather would've gotten his ass beat badly. McGregor at least held his own in an unfamiliar sport, the same wouldn't be true for Floyd. Boxing fags have no excuses now, they can't pretend a boxer would easily knock out an MMA fighter.

Also boxing is fucking retarded. Can't hit someone in the back and hugs break up fighting what a shit sport. Doesn't say much about Mayweather being the best boxer in his division. You gotta be retarded to pay to watch that shit.

>>77869654
Haha, mma punches are not as powerful as muthafuckers who punch for a living. Youngblood couldnt hit as hard as an oldman coming out of retirement, who spent his training time rollerskate dancing and riding bikes around miami. Keep suckin ido portal's dick mystic mac!

I really wish i had bet on this fight now, I knew mayweather would win but I was worried about Mcgregors punchers chance, i literally had nothing to worry about, this fight was way overhyped especially mcgregors ability.

It was very one sided and I'm surprised how many people are patting McGregor on the back. Floyd was in total control, just weighed him up for the first 2 and then walked him down with ease the rest of the fight.

All this talk of Mcgregor's power, awkwardness etc...the small frame of Floyd, small head, 8 ounce gloves advantage, and he did nothing. He got tired quick and walked down by a 40 year old.

Also the only telling shots came from Mayweather, wasn't McGregor a huge puncher according to delusional mma fans?

I rate him for trying but it was obvious to anyone who isn't brain dead that this would be the outcome.

>>77868115

His hugging in the last 3 or so rounds easily beat out Floyd's throughout the match.

last time i checked boxing and striking is a significant part of MMA, and mcgregor was an amateur boxer in his youth

>>77869592

I know you think this is some sort of smug checkmate to MMA. But the UFC isn't just some weird punch club tournament. Saying a retired boxer can box better than a professional fighter is common sense.
>>77869799
My brain's already fucked from football. But seriously, ever have your bell rung? The hits that follow that are the real threat your health. I've seen it happen in boxing but it didn't happen in this fight. Guarantee the guy has 0 brain injury from today.

>>77870047
>>77870047
kys my man.

I don't follow either sport, but boxing fans would always say a boxer could easily knock out an mma fighter before he had a chance to grapple. This proved that wrong, the mma fighter would have the advantage.

>>77870075
Learn to fucking read, I don't follow either sport. I never expected McGregor to win either, I'm amazed he didn't get humiliated. It shows there's not a really big gap between both sports.

>>77870163

>>77869981

funny thing is he had at least 20lbs on mayweather in this fight too

>punched the shit out of potato master
>lmao he was backturning

If Mayweather has won like he did with Pacquiao then this would be true, but Mayweather beat the shit out of potato.
>>77870185
He won, that's all that matter. Potato thought he was so good that he could defeat someone in his sport, he was arrogant, he lost. He's just good at MMA, not boxing.

>>77870163
It literally happend the other day you fucking casual. Fucker was roided up to boot

>>77870158
Of course.

The point I'm making is an mma fighter is a superior fighter. An argument I've seen box fans make is that the mma fighter would get knocked out before they could tackle, that's not true at all. In a fight where both could fight with whatever style they wanted, Mayweather would lose.

>>77870260
he didn't even knock mcgregor out

>>77870185
Didnt get humiliated? Getting tuned up by a retiree who spent his training camp upgrading the stripclub he owns, isnt shameful?

>>77870321
He punched the shit out of him, did you not see the fight? Even in the first rounds where Potato was better than him he was still punched, in the first minutes Mayweather punched him.

I knew faggots will still make excuses, but he won, it's all that matter.

>>77870303

If McGregor actually had the balls to challenge someone like Golovkin then yeah he'd be knocked out without having any chance to grapple, instead of a 40 year old man who's smaller than him.

>>77870260
Yeah, mayweather is the better boxer. I never said otherwise.

I'm just saying this shows that an mma fighter has an advantage in a fight. They're not too far apart.

>>77870185
Conor needs to stick to a sport where actual punching acumen doesnt matter. Wrestle-fuck for days

I mean Connor had like 15-20 lbs on MW, and had longer reach & still lost. I think he's the biggest fighter MW ever fought
If they're stats were similar it wouldn't have been close

Wait, did Conor think "turning him into a mexican" was an accomplishment?

He was so weak that Floyd was comfortable walking him down, how is that a good thing?

>>77870464
That's pretty obvious. The whole idea was that this irish guy was so good that he could defeat everyone, kind of like the Gracies did. Yes, they won many times, but they also lost in epic proportions.

I hope this shit doesn't happen often.

>>77870464
>I'm just saying this shows that an mma fighter has an advantage in a fight.

well of course, if you put mayweather in a sport he has never trained in he is guaranteed to lose as well

but to what extent is a fight a ''real fight''? both sports are just that, sports with rules and limitations around them, a real fight has no rules

It's a shame we will never get to see Rousey against Mayweather.

What would be your ideal fight? Some sort of constantly checking stamin and blood pressure? And then giving them a set of techniques they can only use?

It doesn't make sense. Also, yes, he punched the shit out of him, didn't you see the fight? Mayweather blocked the punches.

Why is getting gassed "not actual winning"?

>>77870571

I dunno, 90% KO rate against actual boxers. I think he'd have him flat.

Conor has just proved MMA is about dry-humping on the ground with 0 power.

>>77870723
Real boxers aren't jiu jitsu experts trying to take you down. You have one shot st best before your boxing skills are entirely useless in a fight. Unless you are some MMA master of avoiding takedowns. 90% of real fights are "dry humping on the ground"

>>77869919
I was just worried that itd be a fix

>>77870694
I never said its not actually winning, but this thread is saying conor embarrased himself
boxings embarrased itself with these retarded rules where you are allowe to turn your back as a legitimate strategy

>And then giving them a set of techniques they can only use?
are you implying this didn't already happen?
you already have a very limited number of techniques because its boxing, I'm just saying some of the "techniques", like turning your back is pretty retarded

floyd outboxed conor, is this your meaning when you say punched the shit out of him?
conor was still standing after the fight and completely clear in the interview

>>77870656
>we will never get Rousey against my erection.
That's the real tragedy.

>>77870839

I'd say getting constantly power punched in the head with no defence or returns counts as getting the shit punched out of you.

>>77869450
Good post

>>77870184
I love mma. I dont think either sport is better than the other. I just think its ridiculous that you can challenge the top of the other discipline without proving yourself. Good on conor for talking his way into it though, have to respect his game.

To be fair he was fighting Mayweather instead.

>>77864581
Connor threw the match.

Notice he kept dropping his guard and did not attack when floyd dropped his to rush in

He would have gotten his ass kicked in the UFC with that fighting style let alone boxing.

>>77870270
Lol, I guess the ref didnt care about brain damage then, eh, buddy?

>>77870624
I mean a fight where both fighting styles are compared to see which fighting style is superior.

Honestly, calling it an mma fight would make more sense since, as far as I can tell, there's no rules besides obvious ones like no eye poking.

>>77864581
i mean, mcgregor did lose to arguably the best fighter ever. he's not fighting some 13-8 jackass out there. i'd like to see him fight mallinagi or whatever his name was, seems like a more interesting fight.

To be fair McGregor was honest when he said he gassed after the 8th, and wanted to survive until his last hoorah in the 11th and 12th.

In mma and a 5min round you find pockets of getting energy back and having a breather, it just looks really weird because Conor shuts his muscles off, lets the blows glance to give himself a 1min breather he thinks he can survive it since hes survived worse and then another breather after the bell and come back hard for the final stretch but to the ref he probably thought he was about to die.

Just one of those things crossing sports over like that with the taking of Floyds back, the way he wobbles around until he can have a breather, a bit sad they didnt let it go the distance it would've been fun.

>>77870235
Oh yeah the fight where they changed the rule set from boxing to MMA THE VERY FUCKING NIGHT BEFORE is supposed to mean anything. Tim walked into the cage expecting to trade hands with Mercer because they had expressly agreed to box. Heres a match where he didn't look so good

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DahOLe5z3Ek

Fucking faggot

Conor was being a complete retard early rounds. I'm not a boxer and I figured out Floyd's game plan immediately. I guess he figured there's no chance of winning this and wanted some free rounds for bragging rights.

It reminded me A LOT of CM Punk's MMA debut.

I'm not sure MMA looks bad considering it's not an entirely stand-up fighting sport.

I'm also not sure boxing looks bad. I was initially thinking it was something that it took 10 rounds, but looking into it, it was likely Floyd letting Conor really gas himself out after seeing him start to fade.

>>77869895

Anon keep sucking nigger dick like the faggot you are. Careful you might break your spine with all the convulsions you're getting over a glorified sparring match.

Conir was ragdolling and hammer fisting Floyd like a little boy.

>>77864581
Mcgregor is no where near one of the best at mma.

>>77864581
Did you even watch the fight? Mayweather was turning his back on McGregor and crouching so Conor could hammerfist his head (not allowed because boxing is pussy fighting) and get faulted. For me it just showed that boxing is nowhere near MMA when it comes to real fighting, Conor had to hold back all the time.

Conor has had just 2 legit fights in 2 years. he claims to know boxing.
no one expected him to be on floyd's level but a lot of us expected him to put in a LOT more effort to become a competent boxer, and he didn't. He believed in himself too much or some shit. Whatever the case, he looked shoddy and made MMA look 2nd or 3rd rate.
It looked like the kind of thing you'd see as an exhibition, "Can an MMA'er box? ...well, kind of."
But this was a real fight and McGoobs should have been a fuck of a lot better prepared. Honestly, I think it was his arrogance that fucked us all.
