    Do we have to be fans to post?

    FYI, I am a fan of McGregor, supported him in his MMA fights all the way.

    This is a bit different though, wouldn't you agree?

    Absolutely not, was mainly in response to walshb telling wonder to disconnect the internet, when he probably has as much responses in the thread as anyone.
    I've probably been to more Conor fights that 95% of people on this thread

    Good man

    Dont know if the rule still exists but there was a time in amateur boxing when you could have a tidy moustache but had to be otherwise clean shaven.

    Conors beard is not big country tho, would Floyd just request it to be a dick ?

    The facial hair doesn't have to be long for it to be a problem.


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,405 ✭✭✭Lukker-


    The beard rule has largely been relaxed, especially in the US. Technically you are meant to be able to see the jaw line, so if it is enforced a trim should be fine. It's stubble they are more concerned with, as that can lead to problems with cuts.

    If Conor manages to beat Floyd I'll be the first on here to be happy for him and admit I was wrong. In my opinion its more likely we see pigs fly :D but I hope it does happen


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,405 ✭✭✭Lukker-


    If he can land on him once or twice I'll be happy.

    That's what I've been saying in my usual long-winded way :)

    Ariel backed that up on the MMA Beat too. Granted you can obviously guess his sources are the very closest members of Conor's team (and probably Conor himself) but he said, quote, "I'm hearing, take this with a pinch of salt, that Conor is surprising everyone (on the team) with how good he has been (against Paulie), he is greatly exceeding expectations".

    Why would you think McGregor should batter a pro boxer?

    Remember, McGregor is paying this lad. So hes been told how to box etc.

    Just based off of fitness as I said. Paulie is coming off the couch whereas McGregor looks in top condition.

    Dont give a crap what went on before or after that, but admit that its a savage photo that shows combat in its best even if roles were reversed.

    Why does Conor have tape all over the chin of his headgear?

    His comment that went with it was terrible though and shows the awful sycophancy surrounding McGregor. He's clearly just thrown a shot that has either missed or only made partial context and apparently that's how he'll KO him. By missing punches?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,423 ✭✭✭✭Outlaw Pete


    The most striking think about that photo are the eyes of both fighters.... and they couldn't be any different.

    Don't be a smart arse.

    I was referring to how Paulie's eyes tell one story and McGregor's another.

    Conor looks the picture of calmness there in comparison to Paulie.

    You'd think McGregor was the pro-boxer from that shot and not the other way around.

    The picture looks like Conor missed a lead uppercut and got caught with a right hook.

    With his weight class so weak I think he has potential needs less instagram posing and more training, had a tough enough up bringing would root for him before Gallagher anyways.
