LakotaDakota Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 mcgregor will not be used to this waiting around. UFC shows run like clockwork, you know exactly when you are fighting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted August 27, 2017 Moderator Share Posted August 27, 2017 Good start by McGregor - but he's going to have to get it done soon if he wants to get it done. Mayweather will figure him out before too long. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Early doors but McGregor doing well. Floyd getting no joy at all in the clinch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LancsVillan Posted August 27, 2017 Moderator Share Posted August 27, 2017 3 rounds and all of them to McGregor, never expected to say that. The sheer size difference is one thing Floyd is struggling with 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 McGregor is going to get a point deduction at some point soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted August 27, 2017 Moderator Share Posted August 27, 2017 If McGregor keeps winning rounds, Mayweather will find himself needing to do the thing he's not good at - it'd be a turn up for the books if the boxer needs to become the puncher.

LancsVillan Posted August 27, 2017 Moderator Share Posted August 27, 2017 Agree with Bunce on 5L. Mayweather looking his age, he needs McGregor to start tiring, he does seem to be doing just that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted August 27, 2017 Moderator Share Posted August 27, 2017 Floyd looks some distance from the boxer he was a couple of years back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably why he looked for an 'easy' one to get to 50 - 0 .. oops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted August 27, 2017 Moderator Share Posted August 27, 2017 I think it's turning a little towards Mayweather. I'd go Mayweather in eight right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do well to last through the 7th. Mayweather on the front foot, unlike him really 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted August 27, 2017 Moderator Share Posted August 27, 2017 So, six rounds down, I'm guessing Conor still slightly ahead on points - McGregor's chin needs to get him through the next couple if he's to do anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Could be anything from 5-1 McGregor to 3-3 on the cards. Floyd warming up while Conor slowing down. I think the second half of the fight will go to Floyd. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LancsVillan Posted August 27, 2017 Moderator Share Posted August 27, 2017 Thing I cannot get out of head is that any sort of close fight will lead to a rematch One that wouldn't attract the hype and/or $$$$ as it wouldn't be unique a second time (or are Yanks/fight fans that thick ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted August 27, 2017 Moderator Share Posted August 27, 2017 The question now is does Mayweather run out of steam - if he does, we've got a very even third act. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Rev Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 The championship rounds too much for Conor. He's going to do very well to take this to the cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted August 27, 2017 Moderator Share Posted August 27, 2017 In the end, it looks like the old man has the nous and the fitness to see him off - so a fight in which McGregor has been a boxer, Mayweather has occasionally been a puncher and the 29 year old who makes a massive fuss about his fitness has come up short against a man in his forties on cheeseburgers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
