Mayweather - McGregor

[karl1987]

He’s sold by the end.

 

Eubank could probably convert the KKK into black lives matter supporters.  He's one of only a few people I can listen to being interviewed without skipping though bits.  Probably my favourite boxer of all time.  First fight I ever watched involved Eubank when I was a young kid and have been a fan ever since.

Yeah, truly a magnificent boxer. I wasn't keen on the monocle, but he's a solid guy.

I just watched the whole Eubank thing. Repped.

 

Eubank sets out a way McGregor could win, by fighting, not boxing. He also said he's in town for the fight, and he never goes to a fight where he knows who is going to win. Interesting. Then he throws in Kipling and several others, and sort of does a great speech about the warrior's code and all the rest of it.

 

He's unsuited to the tv cameras if the requirement is to get your point across in a few seconds, but for something like this interview, it's a nice change from the usual. Mad as a box of frogs, of course, but you can't help but appreciate that the world is a better place for characters like Eubank.

I reckon he knows full well that Mayweather will win, nobody is arsed about hearing yet another ex-boxer backing the boxer like every single other one has.

 

He's one for the cameras, deliberately being contrary for the attention, the way I see it that interview doesn't happen if he says he backs Mayweather.

 

None of that is supposed to be me being negative about Eubank by the way, I love the mad bastard.

Great jingle this. Not gonna happen but still a good bit of fun for the Irish fans.

My favourite Eubank moment was when he kept repeating Tyson was innocent of rape on live tv.

 

No fucks given. "But he's innocent, he told me so"

Thoughts on weight?

 

Interesting that Floyd came in well under. I think it will suit him well. I think he will be too mobile for McGregor, both in landing and evading punches.

 

McGregor tried to look intimidating, not sure it worked. Looked shredded but gaunt.

Mayweather looks in great nick.

[TheBitch]

Imagine looking as good as Eubank when you're in your 50's.

 

When he rocked up to that interview he looked like he was chiselled out of granite. Unreal.

Edited...

Gotta laugh at the mma experts going on about Floyds weight and the difference with McGregor....  Floyds been in this position plenty of times.  He weighed in only 1lb more than he did tonight against Canelo when the fought..  McGregor will be going into this fight at a similar weight to canelo.   Weight difference wont mean a damn thing.

 

Floyd will do his usual thing tomorrow.  He'll come out and work out McGregor's tactics within 3 rounds and then he'll get to work.  Mcgregor will come flying out trying to act the macho man, and quickly realise how damn hard Floyd is to hit.  Fight will be over within 7 rounds.

I can't see what you changed!

Because I was talking shit after drinking copious amounts of brandy and deleted it.

 

It was for the best.

Oh, haha. I'm massively intrigued now! Deleting a pissed up post while still pissed up is kudos levels of self awareness. Bravo sir.

[Aventus]

Funny that straight after the weigh in Mayweather runs to put his thick soled trainers on so he doesn't look like a short arse at the face off.

[Anubis]

Think you have to watch it live.

 

The tension that Mcgregor might kick him at any moment and trigger a full blown riot, is sort of the whole point, isn't it?

Stop getting my hopes up...

[Carvalho Diablo]

I loved every second of that Eubank interview annd you can tell that the interviewer himself did too. Wonderful.

[KMD7]

Eubank is ace.

[Numero Veinticinco]

Heh, I thought I was going to get hate for posting that video!

He is definitely into his TRT!

[Numero Veinticinco]

I like the spin the BBC we’re putting on it, ‘it’s hyped but some people are concerned for McGregor’s safety’. Excellent. They were talking about how dangerous it could be because how inexperienced he is.

 

More of my money well spent.

[Lee909]

Why not

If you are of that age and can afford it. Not heard of many side effects.

Mcgregor always looks gaunt after a weight cut.

 

This was him before the Aldo match, I'm sure I don't need to tell you what happened in that fight.

 

I understand that being smaller and more mobile is a good thing, but weight matters a hell of a lot, no matter how good Mayweather or Pacquiao were in their primes they would never step into the ring with somebody like Carl Froch he would simply be too big for them.

That's the equivalent weight jump Conor made when he fought Nate Diaz though.

 

Might not make much difference like, but Conor coming in heavier is more of an advantage than disadvantage he's fast and mobile anyway, plus being bigger and heavier add a bit of the arl Klitschko grab and lean and mayweather might get gassed later on.

[Elite]

He looks like a different person on that photo.

 

Can't help but admire the dedication of these athletes, No way I could cut like that, I'd have eaten half the fridge after srarving myself for a few hours!
