Conor seems very focused and Mayweather seems to be taking this fight camp very lightly as if Conor is just another regular dude. Conor is very confident, is coming off a TKO of Malignaggi in sparring and just heavier handed and younger.

Honestly I am getting anxiety, Mayweather should win but WOAH McGregor seems focused. I have been speaking with the boxing community and the common feeling amongst the fans is that Mayweather may be underestimating Conor. I know a couple of my friends aren't even going to watch the fight because of how nervous they are of boxing being over if McGregor wins.
 
Floyd has always been focused....always. His legacy at stake with this fight. Anything short of a TKO and its tarnished
 
If Mayweather loses it won't be because of an elementary tactical error like underestimated his opponent. He's too experienced, too professional, too disciplined for that.

It's not an easy fight for Mayweather like so many are saying. McGregor is a very skilled boxer.
 
You should be. He coming to kill Floyd and ruin a sport

Floyd being 40 is his only real problem here. Not a small issue.
 
You're scared for him now, but not when he fought other world champs?
 
Hes old for a fighter. He isnt a power puncher. Hes smaller and has less reach. Conor has boxed forever and is a young beast.

Id be worried too homie.

It's kind of small.

At 40, he may not have the #1 p4p ranking anymore, but he has enough to still be at the elite level in his weight division.

McGregor is not even in the top 50.
 
He's coming to take the boy's head clean off and destroy your weak sport. They got cocky and greedy, now they gotta face the music.
 
Some of you mofo's need to check your troll detectors...

McGregor is going to throw all kinds of UFC stikes at him that Floyd hasnt seen in boxing before. Floyd doesnt have enough time to train to defend spinning back fists, superman punches or slaps (diaz style). These strike combos might confuse Floyd and allow McGregor to KO punch Floyd.

Conor will be slower, less accurate and less comditioned. Hes out gunned on every front including power. This isnt that nonsense striking hes accustomed too in mma.
Dude looked like shit in those 2 mini clips dana posted, looked tired from just bag work in his mediea workout.
 
Floyd takes no one lightly, that's why he's been undefeated 49-0 for 20 plus years as a pro boxer, and one of the best of all time.
 
It's all up to what Floyd wants to do. If I was advising him I'd have him circle left the first three rounds and just throw feints to try to set up the check hook on Conors straight left.. use his ring control that Conor won't have. Start hammering the body in the 4th when their is a little less pop on his punches.. hope he does the switch stance taekwondo business and tires quickly. Will be there for the taking rounds 7-9. Don't over think it

What a ridiculous statement.
May can be boxing ANYBODY and would be expected to win by UD. He aint knocking shit out. 2 finishes since 2006 and one of them was cheap as fuck.
 
That's surprising to hear OP because alot of hardcore boxing fans and some boxing legends are not giving Conor a chance. IMO Conor will impress people, but I just don't know how he wins this one.

Its a difference I think is being grossly underestimated by the boxing community. Floyd destroyed other boxers. I don't think McGregor intends on boxing Mayweather, at least not in a traditional sense. As Dana has said, he is going to fight Floyd, not box him. Will it work? Probably not, but don't underestimate the difference between a fight, and a boxing match. You guys like to laugh and think they are the same thing, I don't think they are.
