no, I understood your point, but tooting your own horn over this isn't toot worthy. it's literally like saying the browns are gonna suck this year and once they do, you're like "I told you so dude, I should be the Mr. Cleo of predicting sports".

KornbreadMaf1a

when the referee stops the fight, that's a TKO.

like I said. Floyd would win on the technicality or on the scorecard.

 

I was right.

the reason the fight was stopped wasn't because the ref was worried about his job. the fight was stopped because Connor clearly ran out of gas, didn't have his legs under him, and had failed to keep his hands up to defend himself. Floyd won but Floyd didn't even knock the guy out. by not building up his stamina any better, McGregor knocked himself out.

A TKO isn't a technicality it's one of the three non technicality ways to win. KO, TKO, decision. A technicality would be Floyd winning via disqualification because Connor threw a spinning heal kick and knocked him out.

 

No offense but you seem to have a very limited understanding of combat sports. A big part of the reason Connor gassed was because of the accumulation of body shots Floyd landed. Body shots don't just hurt they destroy your cardio too so does getting rocked by punches.

congratulations, you predicted a guy who was 49-0 to beat a guy who has never boxed professionally... are you gonna go out on the limb and say the Patriots and Warriors will win their leagues chanpionship?

Don't forget his prediction of a TKO or decision by someone who had won in these manners for half of his fights.

 

Being the Grand Poobah of a video game forum must be nice...

I dunno why your panties are in such a bunch but it's no skin off my back...

I didn't say I was the Miss Cleo of sports. but I happened to call exactly how this fight would go when it was first announced and it pretty much played out how I said.

If you want to carry on the "interest", then PM would be nice, as this bout is getting broadcast to everyone and we don't have the Pay Per View rights.

Yea it was only a worthless circus because Conner lost.

The butthurt is real with you Conner fanboys and closet black boxer haters.

Now play the bag pipes...and wish your little UFC angry Irishman back to Ireland.

 

The guy in the USA trunks is the undefeated champ....and it burns inside for some of you to acknowledge that because you view Flloyd as 'unfavorable"

Jesus Christ, can't people have a different opinion without instantly being labelled a hater? sh*t, black boxer hater? Seriously?

 

It was a massive circus, for massive amounts of money. It dominated the media and was ultimately a pointless fight as of course Mayweather was going to win; he's had 49 professional fights and had won all of them. McGregor doesn't know how to box. His skillset lies in UFC style combat.

 

If they really wanted to see who was the "best fighter", or whatever this fight was supposed to have been, they would have had a boxing match, which Mayweather would (and did) inevitably win; and a UFC match, where McGregor would completely destroy Mayweather.

 

Anyway, GGG vs Canelo does look like an awesome matchup!

And Bruce Lee would've destroyed Conor and Hulk Hogan wouldve destroyed Rousey...

 

Floyd didn't ask to fight in the octagon because he's smart enough to stay in his own lane. Conor was the one calling Floyd out, and was seconds away from getting what he deserved. Regardless of the odds, people were still rooting for Conor while enjoying the racist rhetoric deployed by Conor before the fight

Chocolatito got knocked the #$%^ out by Rungvisai on Saturday in the 4th round. Not many saw that coming after their controversial first bout in which Rungvisai won by Majority decision. Well nothing controversial after this bout, glad I didn't miss it.

 

Now it's on to GGG/Canelo, tough one to call. I feel Canelo might be the better boxer and most experts are picking him, but GGG has the power to end it on one punch so I'll take GGG by KO in round 8.

Well that was massive BS. I had GGG at 8-4 easy, how the fack can someone score it 8-4 for Canelo? Did Goldenboy straight up bribe that ho? Too bad, it was a helluva tilt. I guess that means rematch.

lol she gave 10 rounds to Canelo, the sad thing this isnt the first time shes had a really bad score card. The only reasons she even judges is because her husband is a ref. even Canelo knew he lost after the fight.

closet black boxer haters.

you're a f/cking idiot.

 

the color of his skin had nothing to do with it.

Maybe to you it personally does not, but to others it does..this is the point you missed

 

he never said everyone rooting against Mayweather is a closet black boxer hater....he simply mentioned those that do are also butt hurt..

 

 

and yes a lot of people who wanted him to lose are closet black boxer haters, not all but a lot

Anyone watch the Joshua and Takam fight? AJ was really close to his first lose tonight, REALLY close. One of the best fights I have seen in a long time, had me on the edge of my seat throughout.

they ended it too early though

Maybe, but you cant deny it was quite the fight.

Hey there, gentlemen. Been a while. I’ve been enjoying the hell outta this very good crop of current fighters lately. 

 

Lomachenko is an offensive genius and a joy to watch as he continues to perfect his craft. I’m hoping to see him fight Berchelt at 130 next since Mikey is trying his luck at welterweight. But García-Lomachenko needs to happen in 2019. 

 

Crawford is probably just as talented plus he has a killer instinct and a mean streak that I haven’t seen in years. Bob Arum and Al Haymon need to start doing business together or else we’re not gonna get to see Bud in w anyone of note at 147. 

 

Road warrior Oleksandr Usyk’s unification at cruiserweight has been super impressive and did any of you catch him spark Bellew’s lights out a few weeks back?? God damn!  I didn’t know he had it in him. Wonder if he’s really headed to heavyweight. 

 

How about Naoya Inoue? He’s in or near my top 5 p4p currently and I CAN’T WAIT to see him in there w Tete in his next fight. I think he KOs him but Tete’s a murderous puncher as well. So we’ll see. 

 

Who’s everyone else excited about watching these days?

Errol Spence is the best fighter right now, Garcia is fighting spence not Lomachenko. Gracia thinks he's a 147 fighter now. 

 

Crawford is the 2nd best, but age is getting there for him now since he's plus 30.

Attorney General

Yeah I’m bummed about that. I think Lomachenko-García is a far more interesting and competitive fight than Spence-García. And if Spence gives him a serious beating (which very well may happen) Garcia might not be the same fighter afterwards. That’d definitely take some of the shine off the eventual Loma fight. 

 

As for the other fight...Crawford seems to genuinely want Spence. Like you said...for Bud’s sake, it better get done soon because he’s in his prime right now. But I think Bud made a big mistake signing that deal w Arum and ESPN. All the top guys at 147 are in Al Haymon’s stable PBC. Shame cause Spence-Crawford has the potential to be a major chapter in the storied history of the WW division. It’s a 50/50 fight. I personally favor Crawford.

 

Also, got my wires crossed...Tete is fighting Nonito Donaire in the quarterfinals of the WBSS. Should be a great fight.
