Rolling Boxing Thread / Anticipating Manny vs. Mayweather

Don't think categorising an MMA champion as an amateur works

Don't think categorising this as a professional boxing event works

People got paid to "box" so I think the latter actually works quite well

the funny thing abt mayweather letting mcgregor survive as long as he did is it looked exactly like all his fights, he just did his usual tragically boring stuff, this time as farce

XP did they do

mcgregor being gassed by the third round really added that half assed je ne sais quoi

mayweather giving up the grift post fight was kinda lame tho i thought

boxing is really so much better than mma its too bad it suicided itself with corruption (tho obvs they shd both be illegal)

a century ago it was the most popular sport in the country

still dont think anything has matched a super anticipated title fight for sports glamour

mma is the opposite bunch of weird guys w logos all over them choking each other behind a chain link fence

lol lagoon otm

for deems

Yeah yeah I heard it all last night from the fella I was watching it with.

Fuckin irishmen

fucking mma fans

fucking corkmen

all fair

fucking fuck fuckers

Lol "fuck the mayweathers" like it's a rival clan

a rival clan == blacks?

... and tans

The Mayweathers from Ballyvolane

Some truly annoying Irish McGregor stans out there

It's encapsulated above, hardly unique to us. If it's Irish and abroad u must be seen to enthusiastically overstate it's positives and utter nothing but benediction and moronic platitudes ascertaining its success or u r in fact british

McGregor's next move = action movies

He'd have to possess some small amount of acting talent, such as the WWE wrestlers demonstrate.

It didnt seem to matter for Vinnie Jones

neither did likeability so McGregor has a shot

Lol this thread oh boy.

canelo GGG this weekend. loma rigo in december. not been a bad year for boxing... ?

kovalev ward was decent, as was joshua klitschko

great year for boxing. this Saturday is the fight of the year, hope it lives up to the hype. excited to see what Bud Crawford decides to do next as well.

I'm going to a movie theater to watch Canelo v GGG. There's a handful of them showing it in PHX.

did yall watch the super flyweight card last week? three dope fights, psyched about either sor rungvisai/estrada or sor rungvisai/inoue.

tomorrow night should be fun but i think canelo is kinda tedious and that ggg lost to danny jacobs.

a couple of fights ago, I would've thought GGG walked through the canelo fight in a canter. now... I'm not so sure. canelo might just do him on points. canelo points or late GGG tko seem the most likely outcomes

i mean i hope ggg body shots canelo into pudding don't get me wrong

i didnt see last weeks xp

it was the hbo card last week, three wildly entertaining fights that were wildly entertaining for totally different reasons. my favorite card of the year so far, though joshua-klitschko is my favorite fight.

yeah that was a good one

This guy otm. I predict a Canelo UD but will cheer for a 9th or 10th rd stoppage in favor of GGG

GGG, as we knew him, has been MIA for over a year now

I still like Triple G in this one

Canelon in control 3 rounds in but I sense a fucking war coming

round 5 was great

GGG the aggressor now. Ultra compelling boxing

even so far. great stuff

Turning into a 'typical GGG fight' but I don't trust that

canelo looks cooked

THIS FIIIIIIGHT

GGG jab is unreal

I am not a Canelo fan but wake up, Canelo!!

canelo gonna have to dig deep
