The man held his own out of his element. Respect for that.

>>77893711
No he didn't.

It would be the same thing if Floyd went to UFC. Why are people treating this like a championship bout?

>>77891668
But it's been known for a long time that MMA is shit. They have abysmal striking and so-so wrestling. If you did just boxing and wrestling, or really, any striking and grappling art instead of MMA, you'd be better off. Much better.

>>77893780
>It would be the same thing if Floyd went to UFC.
I'm not too sure about that. Pure boxers do very well in MMA as soon as they have some takedown defense. Unfortunately, some grappling is obigatory because of the ruleset in MMA.

lel even though in May vs. McG it was the Homer Simpson strategy that won the fight

>>77893791
Floyd won't have the referee cutting them off though.

>>77893780

Really makes you think

>>77891668
B-but real fights is the only important thing here!

There will always be better boxers, grapplers, and kickboxers in their respective sports, than their are in MMA.

conor needed a lot more time on cardio, and keeping his fucking hands up.

Also its not the same situation. You would need a boxer in his prime like canelo going against a retired MMA dude known for his striking.

>>77893791
Which pure boxers? James Toney?
Maybe in Women's MMA

That said the reason Bisping is champ right now is because he started working with a real boxing coach for a few years and finally got good at it to pop Rockhold.

>>77898502
And then he got fucked up by senior citizen and hasn't fought since. Bispings a coward.

>>77891668
Didn't McGregor do better against Mayweather than Pacquiao and some others did?

>>77893791
The best professional boxer is not necessarily the best MMA boxer.

Roger Gracie is the GOAT BJJ fighter. He was so-so in MMA. Fabricio Werdum went on to become an UFC Champion.

If you take Kickboxing, Semmy Schilt is the K1 GOAT. He was not as great in MMA as CroCop.

>>77898764
>Didn't McGregor do better against Mayweather than Pacquiao and some others did?
Only because mayweather left himself open because he knew he didn't have anything to worry about. If he had fought like that against Pacquiao, he would have lost.

>>77891668
congrats. this is one of the most retarded ops i've seen this month

Honestly Canelo could heem anyone in his weight class in MMA, let alone someone that's retired.

McGregor is Mayweather's first actual TKO and legitimate win in years.

>>77891668
>MMA fights last 25 minutes max
>Boxer goes into a shell to drag out the match
>MMA fighter collapses in 9th round
And people spent $100 on this Jst to witness that mma fighters don't have the endurance of boxers, especially this boxer.

I like both sports but this was a sham from the jump. It should have been 8 rounds.

Yes.

But Mayweather didn't fight like that against Pacquiao.

Props to McGregor for landing more than Pac still.

>>77898410
This

MMA is where fighters go who cant be champions in other main stream sports that pay more.

Its just a place fighters end up.

>>77898764
>Better
No, he landed more punches, but none of them did any damage. He landed more because Floyd played aggressive and let him punch himself out, not to mention he's a decade younger than Pac

MMA fighters are pieces of shit who think jumping people on the street for a fight is cool.

They're mainly little shits who can't handle their alcohol. MMA contributes nothing original to fight sports.

Really makes me think.

>>77891668
This fight was about money. Conor's rich because of it, he never has to do a day's work for the rest of his life, while Floyd gets both the fight money and his no-risk 50-0. All the hype was for no other reason than to have them both, with their teams of course, cash in on their idiot audiences.

>>77910184
Nice rebuttal, Badou Jack

wow, different sports with differenr rules lead to different specializations. if only there was some word for this kind of natural selection of skills.

they both suck, boxing is judged, therefore out. on par with gymnastics and ice dancing.

The circus provided me a standard for reference for measuring the caliber of athlete boxing cultivates. Being a novice, I had know idea boxers were so much more refined by only viewing the two separately. I'm exclusive to the sweet science now.

Feeling the adoration for the sport that I feel just as an onlooker. How bad must it feel for Conor, to go from standing on a raised platform engaging in a sport of intelligence and nuance to being back in his fenced hole like an animal, engaged in his ever more diluted patchwork discipline.

Conor proved he was the second greatest boxer of all time. I can respect that.

>>77914340
Most reasonable people can, McGregor had the balls to try something they never could, he went in there with boxing's GOAT and won 8 rounds decisively before the ref stopped him. I'd say he's earned everyone's respect.

Hell yes to all of it. /heem/ belongs on >>>/asp/.
