This is embarrassing stuff! Mcgregor is shocking! Started pushing his punches after 4 rounds on the bags and reminds me a of a charver in Marine House gym who does not know what he is doing either.
 


Listening to McGregor talk in the media scrum & his interview with Ariel , in addition to the footage released. A very different view on the Malignaggi situation now a lot more in favour of Conor
 
Maybe the chance comes from not having traditional boxing technique. Were people really expecting him to become a good enough traditional boxer to beat Mayweather?

That is the only chance he has and the only reason he has got the fight. Lots of other mma fighters have started calling out boxers but they all have traditional boxing styles so it is never going to happen. Mcgreggor has an awkward and original style so that could cause issues in the early rounds. Once Floyd has got to grips with his movement he wont have much chance at all. Floyd getting to grips to his style might happen straight away but I think it will be interesting for the first 2-4 rounds then Floyd will put his master class on for the rest.

Agreed that's why I am surprised people are criticising his technique, the way I see it that's his best chance (Very slim one).

Exactly. If he changed his style to a more conventional one what is the point of all of this. He has got this far in his career being himself and having his own style so should carry on, people have always doubted what he can do and for the most part has proved them wrong. I am not saying I think he goes in and beats Floyd though but it is his style that makes it interesting.

Loads of people saying its a farce and shouldnt be happening but 60 pages thread before it has even happened shows we are all interested in it.

exactly right.
 
Tbh, think both fighters have won, whoever wins on the night will be irrelevant. Both would have made a good wedge out of all this stuff, more publicity for MMA and boxing on the whole as well.

So they've both done their jobs well.

Of course it's a farce, it's no where near an even match, it's simply a circus act made to rape the pockets of complete mugs while everyone behind it laughs all the way to the bank.
