Mayweather v McGregor

25-08-17, 07:37 PM
4am Sunday morning our time.
Anyone splashed out the £20 to watch the fight on telly? Any predictions? I reckon Mayweather to win in the third.

Not shelled out will try watch afterwards at a reasonable hour
 . I recon mayweather too. I think mcgregar will put up a half decent fight. I think Conor has the punching power but floyds defence is 2nd to none. In my opinion if mcgregar wins they will say it's cos floyd hasn't fought for two years and is retired. If mayweather wins they will say Conor had no chance as he's never had an armature or pro boxing match. 
Yep Mayweather to win by a knockout, it's a boxing match and it's basically a talented amateur fighting a professional. There's always the chance Mcgregor will land a lucky blow though. The other thing in Mcgregors favour is his age- at 29 he's in his prime. If it does go the distance Mayweather as a 40 year old will suffer. I'll catch the repeat with the usual Sunday hangover.
Treat everything in life the way a dog would- if you can't eat it or foc it, forget it.

Mayweather hasn't knocked anyone out in about ten years tho ?
And on the other hand 3 x 5 min rounds (15 mins) in UFC compared To 12 x 3 min rounds (36 mins) in boxing Mayweather is used to going the distance. Where as Conor usually finishes before the end. So mayweather has the advantage there too

If give it to Mayweather but I reckon it's gonna go the distance. McGregor is used to full body grappling etc so I've no doubt he'll have the stamina to go the distance and i honestly believe he's the harder hitter of the two but as some of you said Mayweathers defence is amazing. In 49 fights he's never even been cut. Not to mention he has the longer reach and far superior technical skill.
So my money goes on Mayweather for the win on points

Been saying Mayweather in round 8 for a while now, i don't think it'll end before that with the amount of money involved.
Weird fight though that shouldn't really be happening, especially for an obscene purse.

I think the only thing in Conor's favour is that he's used to being hit with 2oz gloves
where as mayweather going to be using 8oz. They will feel like pillows to mcgregor.

McGregor is as hard as coffin nails but he's got as much chance as winning as Mayweather would have if rolls were reversed & he was facing McGregor in MMA. Could land a lucky hard one though, you never know.

Big weight difference not in McGregor's favour, 15lb apparently!

Mate was showing me some of Mayweather's fights earlier, he's pretty damn quick.
And can throw and take a dig. 49 wins is no fluke.

There are many sports these days that are so bent it's ridiculous.
From a betting point of view the rewards are huge. These lads don't need the dosh but everyone loves a good winner. Miss a snooker ball by 1mm and you have a winner without anyone having a scooby. The film "Snatch" springs to mind.

It was on the radio yesterday that paddy power have already been paying out bets that people said mayweather to win. As they think it's such a sure thing. They paid out and stoped taking bets. It will be a big shock to their system if he doesn't. All the big money that they will have to pay out and the fact they already paid the wrong thing. I can't see them being able to reclaim this bets they have Miss paid.

Announcing this payout is just a good bit of marketing to entice more punters to have a dabble. I don't mind the odd bet but this event is way too random for me from a betting point of view.

There is live commentary of the fight on Radio 5 for anyone that wishes to listen in...you have to just imagine the rest!?
26-08-17, 09:04 AM
That might be the way to do it. Save money. Listen live on radio 5 then watch the highlights later in the day
26-08-17, 09:59 AM
So how many of you would step in with one of them ? Be no contest but I'd willingly get my ass kicked for the same payout there getting.
