Nah will give it a miss, but interested in the result. Just not interested in watching McGregor try and slap a true boxer. It will be a farce.

Sounds a great excuse to head down the local, Hopefully they do what they have done in the past for Green v Mundine fights etc and have $5 pints. It always ends with a ring side seat in the car park at the end of the day :lol: ;)

I must say I seen a ripper in the car park of the first Green v Mundine

the 10 sec one is very good value
Both are counter punchers, regardless of the chest beating they have both done declaring knock out wins

Just had this debate with some here at work, I reckon there's no chance of that happening. Mayweather won't throw any but McGregor will charge out and be throwing them before he leaves his corner I reckon. :lol:

That can work in MMA, but in boxing, you wouldn't want to gas out in the 1st of 12 rounds! Less chance of a knockout with the bigger gloves, even if they are 8 oz and not the usual 10 oz.

You know that. I know that. McGregor knows that. But when the bells rings?

I know sweet FA about boxing. But as an avid listener of the Joe Rogan Experience and Fighter and The Kid, I feel like I've heard everything there is to know about this thing.

Never gone out of my of my way to watch a bout before, never given a shit about green v mundine.

But pretty keen to see whether McGregor can land that magic left hand or if he gets his face boxed off for 8 rounds before he's unable to answer the bell.

Agree...that's why if I was a betting man, I'd be chucking some $ on either a DQ or a NC.

Apparently loads of people in the US are having PPV technical issues. Could cost them millions!

Watched it on facebook. Boring.
Give me Rocky v Apollo anyday.
Good to see the loud mouth Irish man get smashed though, even if I am part Irish.

Much prefer a loud mouth Irishman than a loudmouth domestic violence perpetrator...

Yeah I know, it was like Mr T v Drago.

I've had more issues with loud mouth wankers than wife beaters in my time hence why Mayweather's public persona having a bit of style was the only reason I hoped he kicked arse. I bet McGregor doesn't have a boner now. Wanker.

At the end of the day at least the winner won the fight unlike the last couple of matches in Australia I watched

They're Both wankers.
It was a crap fight really.
Mayweather could have finished it way earlier if he really wanted too.
Didn't reach any great heights unfortunately.
