Mayweather vs McGregor: Anybody interested?
« on: August 23, 2017, 12:47:05 am »

I'm watching this fight at the local pub with my Dad. Regardless of how awful, boring or otherwise farcical this fight may be, the food'll be good.

What are your guys thoughts on this one?

I'm betting more boring than Mayweather/Pacquiao. Any takers? Stakes are me saying "wow that wasn't boring" if it's interesting.

Something something unbreakable record, something something angles, something something fixed by the mob.

$100 on the razor blade hidden in McGregor's glove, TKO (because there aren't specific rules for blood loss).

$1 Mayweather pulls an Oliver McCall and sees the Void halfway through the fight, realizing that all his wealth and pride are ashes and that to continue fighting pushes him only further towards becoming a broken animal. He still wins because his attempt to hug McGregor freaks him out so bad he jumps out of the ring.

A black dude and an Irishman get into a fight.

So...what's the punch line?

It's not Hell's Kitchen, but it's Nevada so it might as well be hell?

This is a mayweather fight, there will be no punches of any sort.

I want macgregor to win so bad, and I'm probably gonna watch it at the local cigar lounge, but I can't imagine he's gonna win.

Really I don't want macgregor to win as much as I want mayweather to lose.

Forget KO, and forget TKO, is anybody willing to say they think that either of them will get at least one ten count?

Aren't both of these guys pretty much utter bastards?

Their public personas are, can't speak as to their actual personalities. If you're going to judge purely by confirmed actions, Floyd did serve a jail sentence for domestic violence. No idea if Conor's done anything majorly illegal.

A fight between two massive egos is honestly pretty fun, you really don't care who loses provided SOMEONE loses decisively.

Fairly sure it will be mayweather. I actually have money on him. I'm not going to watch the fight, but I have 5$ on Mayweather.

10$ actually. It's a bet with a friend who seems to be deluding himself.

I'm supporting McGregor for the Celtic connection.

In our parlance, I fully expect him to have his arse handed to him, but hey, it'd be cool if he won.
