Media Difference between Floyd and Conor

**EDIT - DIFFERENCES

Also, they forgot to mention: Floyd is black. Conor is white.
 
Don't just post a vid.

What's your opinion?

Cliffs?
 
2nd biggest money fight in combat sports history and it was a farce.
They conned us all
 
The difference is Floyd isn't a quitter and is dedicated to his craft. Even as the money and fame grew for Floyd, he was still busting his ass at the gym.

Too bad he's a POS.
 
the difference is that mayweather doesnt have someone like khabib shooting for their legs to take them down.
The difference is there was little cherry picking when fighting to get to the top.
 
Floyd had a motivation to be the goat

Theres something really powerful in that which allows you to continue bringing the best out of yourself long after you're already set for life.

Conor wanted to be one of the best and hold 2 belts along with making an absurd amount of money. When he attained that goal though, it seems like he lost some of the fire which allowed him to reach them in the first place which isn't uncommon.

Athletes like Floyd are special because they continually move the athletic goalpost and strive for higher heights.

As of now Conor hasn't really shown to be that guy, his last fight he seemed to be a shell of himself mentally. It takes a special kind of person who in spite of already having everything in the world, dealing with the pressures, temptations of Hollywood and the entertainment industry.. Continues to move forward and perform at their highest potential, what allowed them to reach the top in the first place.

Floyd is special in that sense for sure. Much like Lebron or innumerable other elite athletes who continue performing at the highest level.

Conor can perhaps still turn it around though and regain what he has lost but that's entirely up to him

Who? Floyd didn't cherry-pick? ))

btw... There's too much boxing in the heavies. It's like a big merger. Let's discuss the Fury-Schwarz bout.
 
I’m going to need Dan Hardy to break this down for me
 
Floyd really was better than all of his peers in the boxing game. He was also the best promoter ever. He was an exciting fighter early in his career in the lighter weights while building his name. As he went up in weight, he didn't carry his power up. He had to change his fighting style so he created the "Money" heel persona to keep fan interest.

Connor had a nice straight left.
 
One is black all over and the other is black just from the waist down

Conor was the best MMA. His bank account says so.

Conor's in the UFC version of prizefighting. He did exactly what the sport called for. Now, the limitations of his training, the whole MMA concept as it is trained today, have come home to roost. As they did w Ronda.

MMA is a sport for figureheads. Top boxing champions don't fit that mold. Floyd being prime example.

Agreed on both.

Once Connor saw that Floyd money his career started to come second to being a baller.

Although being a POS is something Floyd and Conny have in common.

lmao if Floyd was an MMA fighter bet your ass he would have the best wrestlers in the world in his camp and be in the gym from sun up to sun down to improve or build the gameplan, instead of goofing off like Conor. Conor has no discipline.

But Floyd is also kind of a freak athlete, so there's that. Everyone isn't special.
 
Didn't watch the vid, but one difference is the willingness to take risk.

What a nonsense post.
 
The difference is that Conor has the balls to fight the best under his own rule set, whereas Floyd barely takes any risks even in his own domain.
