Clinch and dirty box cuz this will not be sanctioned. What self-respecting sanctioning body would put their necks out there for a non-title bout?
If Connah hits Floyd as hard as he can with an uppercut to the nuts/ballsack/jewels, does he just get a warning like you do in the ufc? How about when Connah breaks from a clinch and elbows Floyd in the head causing a nice gash above an eye? Straight shot behind the head? (Btw, what Floyd did to Victor Ortiz was dirty, cheap and very unsportsmanlike.)
Can you imagine a ref that calls off the entire fight because of an infraction? All the people who paid $100 for a PPV is pissed cuz it lasted 2 rds? I think the ref has to be lenient. There has to be a definitive winner.
When you have an unprecedented situation in possibly a non-sanctioned fight with "real judges" or "bought judges", than there's a potential for funny business. Floyd is the master at shady strategy prior to a bout.
So... I present the pseudo-mma fighter in a smaller boxing ring looking for warnings but inflicting damage beyond boxing gloves.
If I were Connah, I personally would turn it into a street fight as much as possible. The way Rocky 3 started off with Clubber Lang going nuts on Rocky... YOU AIN'T NUTHIN!!!
This will not be a game of precision and sweet science like the Pacquiao snooze fest. Fuck that. It will and must be WAR.
Perhaps the biggest advantage that Connah could seek, is for a heavier weight class... at least 155lbs.
Slows down Floyd and allows Connah to gain on size to absorb all of Floyd's rabbit punches.
Btw, I like both fighters but ever since I was a wee lad, I always support the underdog. How great is it that Floyd would even do such a thing? There is no other mma fighter that would ever be chosen.
(Do not use James Toney as a reference as he's an absolute idiot who didn't prepare one iota for Randy. Toney said he will defend the takedown. Lol.)
