stealthy1 3,964 Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 I think for that kind of money $25m you would give it your best shot. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/boxing/38621513 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blackdog92 2,047 Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 I think both would win in the own sport's. Floyd would wipe the floor with conor at boxing and conor would destroy floyd at mma, he would take it straight to the ground and mayweather would be done. But for 25m i wouldnt mind loosing either way. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Francie 6,368 Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 He certainly wont, he aldready offered mcgregs 15 million, an he get 100, so he says, but dana said there was no offer made. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Welsh_red 4,645 Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 Don't understand why Dana white would let the jewel in his companies crown get destroyed so publicly Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Welsh_red 4,645 Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 What you mean mate? From everything I've read (and I'm no expert in mma or boxing) mayweather will hammer him boxing . It will be 100% one sided and McGregor will get a pasting . McGregor is the massive star if UFC . I don't understand business wise why Dana white would sanction his best product being embarrassed on such a big stage . The only winner would be the mayweather camp Like I said I may be wrong but that's how I see it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jiggy 3,209 Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 I think it's a setup that floyd would win a round then mcgregor would break rules and have a bit of a maul on floor before been separated then get disqualified and both would be coming out of fight with reputations intact and a big media circus to generate revenue. You can be sure that both are intelligent men and wouldn't get caught out doing something as stupid as fighting the other at their game this is a WWE style circus where grown men are like kids waiting for the outcome. Mayweather has already appeared in WWE stunts and cares more about money than respect for boxing and mcgregor can see the potential to jump on the gravy train. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stealthy1 3,964 Posted January 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 I think that if McGregor gets Mayweather on the floor, then its a done deal, and Mayweather is not used to getting kicked in the head. Hope it comes off. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gnasher16 30,121 Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 Hopefully they never meet as it would be the beginning of the end for both sports.........if they did meet it wouldnt even be competitive. 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jiggy 3,209 Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 Mayweather fought 500 pound wrestler bigshow in WWE and won. Knocked him out actually ffs it's a laughing stock of organised choreography and mcgregor will be no different it's bad news for both sports to be taken seriously for the future. How many people will start questioning are all the boxing world title fights a soap opera too. UFC already hand pick fights ignoring rankings for money the sport is going down the toilet. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

stealthy1 3,964 Posted January 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 The purse could go sky high if there is enough interest world wide. Last week it was $15m, now it's $25m. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gnasher16 30,121 Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 I think Mcgregor is a very charismatic and likeable lad its not difficult to see why he has risen in popularity so quickly......but ultimately he is just a fighter.......he is the best stand up boxer type i have seen in that sport but he is still light years away from Mayweather.......put him in with a top 10 rated boxer and see how he fairs before taking the public for idiots and creating a huge fighting event based on 1 mans fighting prowess and the other mans charisma.....my bet is he wouldnt be competitive with any top 10 boxer let alone one of the best ever. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
