Mayweather is nigh untouchable vs people who have spent their lives honing themselves for the craft of boxing, maybe not Federer vs a squash player but honestly can see McGregor being the one who gets KO'd in 4, it's just so lopsided.

Distance, timing, head movement, footwork, endurance, not mentioning not having to worry about fighting by the cage, offensive and defensive grappeling, kicks, elbows, knees... It should be much more one-sided the other way around, but McGregor should have a snowball's chance in hell to win. | ||

Would be kind of like some random pro from other esport coming in and beating Flash in Broodwar without having any professional games in BW.. It's funny how much press this entire event is getting in worldwide media though, way more than even the biggest UFC event. | ||

It's funny how much press this entire event is getting in worldwide media though, way more than even the biggest UFC event. It is a fight every average Joe on the street will have an opinion about, and they have done a very good job hyping it up! The fight itself can only fail. I just did a quick search, and found that he is not alone, having quite some MMA artist colleagues with boxing records, some short flicks, others with long side-careers. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mixed_martial_artists_with_professional_boxing_records As for top-dogs changing sports, I think rugby league player Jarryd Hayne's attempt to join the NFL is the best example. The 2 sports should be about as easy or difficult to learn, with plenty of similarities as well. However, he did fail to make an NFL breaktrough... As for the MMA guys, I don't doubt that many of them have a professional level in boxing, but to beat a GOAT, or any title contender for the matter? Nah... | ||

Asking for a friend. my friend showed me how to find free streams and when i watch it feels like i'm watching from the firstrow ... or the even firstrows when you try to get 1 of those free streams BATMAN might try to catch you while others will say u r sour on sports like a lemon i felt really bad about getting it for free so i paid $100 USD because i want Mayweather to not just make $100,000,000 but rather $100,000,100 | ||
