It's absolutely correct. Just because you have a boxing license doesn't mean you are a great boxer. The license just means you are medically fit to fight, it doesn't mean you are good.
No he didn't cause it was a poor analogy. An accurate one would be more like a Formula 1 driver doing a nascar race. Which is not at all crazy and has happened.
Bluesteel right. he's acting like Connor has never thrown a real punch in a real fight. It's not like this the first time he's had to land or dodge a punch, he's been making millions doing that and more for years. Sure the sports are different, but it's not like he's some scrub or total newbie who has no experience. I can promise you there are worse boxers than McGregor.
How can anyone with BASIC knowledge of fighting even THINK, that Connor Mcgreggor can outbox Floyd Mayweather? You CAN'T learn boxing in 1, 2 or 5 years like these guys that grew up on it, trained for most of their lifetimes and breathe it everyday, expecting anything other than a one sided beating. Maidana hits hard, Canelo hits hard. Look what Floyd did to them. I mean, Nate Diaz "outboxed" Connor for crying out loud!!!!!! You think Mcgreggor Gassed 10 minutes into the fight? imagine him in an 8th or 9th round vs one of the most slick and smartest defensive fighters ever. STOP THE HYPE, BE REAL WHEN YOU ANALIZE THESE THINGS
ricardo gil if u shut ur mouth u will understand thay conor gassed out at 170 pound division not at 145 and dint compare cardio of mma to boxing ,boxing rings r much shorter and only hv to use boxing
ricardo gil Any real fight fan knows Conor will lose in the ring but the money is big and he has the balls to fight mayweather in his world , Win win situation, Mayweather could never hang in the cage but he would NEVER go there.
ricardo gil For all the money in the world Floyd wouldn't fight full combat because he would get knocked clean out and he couldn't handle such a thing.
Let's be real here Mayweather can't knock out anyone. Conor's taller more reach, boxing style is very different. It's more karate. The only way Floyd may win is by decision as Conor might go for knockout and with 12 ounce gloves it will be really tough and after 4-5 rounds conor may gas out.
Glenn Lawrence lmao before mcgregor band wagons came to light at 47-0 floyd said he had 2 fights left and he was done. He retired to stay physically and mentally healthy and they want him to do it to please who? lmao people like Skip is why Floyd made 300 mill in a few hours
Nikolaus Matus becoz it was floyd who started this conor thing and altogether now he just shut his mouth abt fighting him even when he lost to nate he said he will definitely fight conor and as soon as he won he shut his mouth now
So cuz I got a driver's license that mean I should be in NASCAR is that what you're telling me - Shannon Sharpe LmAo *PAHZAZZ RADIO IS NOW HERE ON UA-cam HIT THAT CHANNEL ENJOY SOME AMAZING HIP HOP CONTENT!!!!
Josh Dempsey Flyod didn't call conner out TMZ did. By the way Toni Stewart should've served time for the driver he killed, not life but a month or somin rookie drivers lifes matter 😎 (although you shouldn't get out of your race car during the race)
Funny how Ellerbe is saying that McGregor is using Floyds name for publicity, but Floyd was the one who originally considered this matchup when he tweeted the mock fight poster. Run, Floyd, Run.
Infamous Is Conor a professional boxer?? You missing the whole point because you just a fan lol. Calm down cause being tough on the internet just gives away the type of person you really are.
thekid26 He will fight. Just like a person with a gun license would still shoot. It's not just something anyone can be great at just cause it get a approval lol
he's dominated the entire featherweight and lightweight simultaneously with sheer boxing, the man is a warrior no matter what obstacle boxing karate he will practice the art and master it, its all in the mind brother
Zahran Syed You right on that. I understand you completely. My thing about it is defense wins all the time. Conor isn't that great at defense but easily can lay a beat down on somebody. At the end of the day Floyd is the best defensive fighter ever. Statistics don't lie. I'm not talking about being 49-0 at this point. I'm talking about how times has he been hit. Conor isn't ready to chase him around for 12 rounds lol. Conor is the best at his sport but not in boxing.
i happen to have experience both and in my personal opinion I felt the ring more intense and more energy draining then the octagon seriously... I mean don't get me wrong it all depends on who your opponent is but I am not reffering to that i am reffering to the level of intensity which I felt more in the boxing ring... p.s I took a good knee to the body b4 and it was nothing compared to constantly taking body shots every round ...
Pale i believe this also. boxing has a limited number of tools you can use (8 actually). but if your fighting with boxing rules against someone who has mastered these tools, then you are in trouble.
its not undefeated part, ppl dont undertsand of how big aldo was as well they thought he was the best featherweight to ever live in ufc after what he did to faber
why would the biggest draw and money man in the entire fight world have to fight anyone else other than the biggest draw and money man undefeated retired boxer? Mayweather wants this fight much more than pacquio or anyone else, he wants that 200M$
So this was another segment of Skip hating on Floyd like he does Lebron. 👀😂A bad matchup for Floyd Skip really thinking this is a easy task to conquer Conor can't even reaction fast enough for Nate Diaz let alone the best boxer of our era.
Greatest Ever Sounds like a excuse when you train for a fight this alone shows he will get bodied. Well considering all little guys are usually faster than the bigger opponent when moving up in weight.
When McGregor boxed Diaz, when they were fresh.. Diaz could barely land anything at all and was made to look useless so tried holding Conor against a cage. If you try and punch Conor, his left will slip over the top of your shoulder and knock your jaw off faster than lightning.
If Connor ever fought floyd. It would be like watching somebody shadow box. He will be swinging @ air the whole night.While floyd pop shots him. Then we will hear the typical floyd excuse which is he ran. 😂😂😂😂 Floyd Haters just hold yall 49 Ls
That would be dumb mma gloves are made for grappling that's why they're so small and don't cover your hands completely which if you're only boxing for 12 rounds they're not very practical now boxing gloves are made only for punching so they protect your hands from Injuries and trust me boxing gloves do cause damage just like an mma glove
+James Wardrop I believe they actually compared the damage an mma glove can do vs a boxing glove and they were basically the same I don't know if you have ever been punched with a real 8.oz boxing glove or even a 10.oz boxing glove it doesn't feel good you will definitely feel the punch not too pleasant
svgm you gotta be kidding brother. you get touched on the chin with an mma glove you go to sleep. Still standing? the next punch leaves you twitching on the ground in a seizure.
Freddie roach laughed at mcgregor because he was getting that WORKfrom CHRIS VAN HEERDEN in sparring. I know that name is foreign to casual fight fans. Stick to mma Conor
traedify doesn't matter... Connor isn't a sparring machine or a training savage... When the lights come on and the money is on the line he shines. It's the gift of showing up during gametime. Eli Manning is a mouth breathing simpleton but when the superbowl is on the line and you need a miracle he makes it happen. Some people have the gift others don't. Mayweather has never once show that true greatness. Only good enough to get it doneness
AgentJ2007 I have been posting this comment every since they started debating this topic and you are the only person to comment with any real knowledge about what I was saying. You are absolutely right in your assessment.
traedify Most of this threads are infected by casual fans, Floyd haters and uninitiated people. They simply don't know and can't comprehend what they are saying. Ignore them. I'm a student of the game of boxing. I have watched fights since the Sugar Ray Robinson era. You do not stick someone who has never box professionally against the best in the game. Boxing is not something you can learn by sparring in gym or fighting incompetent boxers like diaz and alvarez. Logic and reality is clear. You can't say you are good boxer when you haven't even fought a single professional fight let alone a world champion. Conor has no shot at all.
Ant T I am being realistic. McGregor is the type that would keep rushing Floyd because he wants a knockout himself. Floyd is the best counter puncher in the game and would light him up! Even if you don't think he has power, many counter punches would take anyone out.
naturalselector85 Floyd fought at 135 before Conor could never get to that weight ..his frames bigger than Floyds he would destroy Floyd ..at 40 floyd has no shot
mcgregor gets owned....boxing in mma is different from real boxing....bigger gloves...harder to slip punches thru blocks with bigger gloves...he needs to use a different stance...he needs to put his hands up more....so many variables that mcgregor has to face that he hasnt shown yet....
How about Conor defend his title at least once before even mentioning Floyd's name again? Anderson Silva cleaned out his division, was the P4P best and Dana wouldn't let him box RJJ. Conor runs his mouth and can get a shot based on that? We all know what's going on here.
Two things: Anderson Silva is a cheater and he never, NEVER....brought in the numbers that Conor is bring in for the UFC. Conor is greater than Anderson Silva in every conceivable way.
WTf, McGregor wouldn't even beat paqs, or any decent boxer, he should stay out of boxing, boxing is a total different world. He would get destroyed by any boxer who's professional
😄 Conor doesn't have a chance against Floyd in a boxing match period. Conor is a good boxer but it's the threat of his kicks that Conor uses to maintain the range that he wants
fabrizzio monsalve of course it is... MMA is fighting, boxing is fighting, BJJ is fighting, etc... with regard to his comment, if I were to put it simply for you: walking = driving = being able to punch running = racing = fighting 100m sprint = nacar/F1 = MMA/Boxing So just because you are able to walk doesn't mean you can race Usain Bolt!!! That's the point! Shannon made a dumb comment! In the running = racing = fighting part specifically! A 400m runner can maybe compete with Usain Bolt... because he is a runner... an F1 racer can cross over to nascar and the other way around... because they have racing licenses! NOT driving licenses
Floyd is 40. Has fought his whole life. Hasn't trained for about a year, let the man rest already I didn't see anyone calling him out when he was in his prime. Everyone wants to cash in now that he's not at his peak.
Well he called Conor out over a year ago, that's the ting about this whole situation. Floyd START the mega fight rumors and ever since Conor said yes he's backed down from it.
idiot, 5 rounds of 5 minutes, not 3 and I'd go as far as saying that MMA is harder on cardio than boxing because of the grappling exchanges, clinches, elbows, kicks, etc.
Daryus P a fighter looses cause at no matter the cause they will go in danger and fight till the end at any cost, mayweather never did that did he ? He hasn't fought out of Las Vegas he hasn't exchanged blows or anything he's not a fighter he's just a boxer know ur difference
Zoul125 shut up, the whole UFC can't keep Floyds name out there mouth. First it was Ronda now it's Conor. One thing UFC doesn't have is history, they always compare every fighter to Floyd. In boxing we don't talk about Conor. We have other legendary fighters before him to compare him to.
Wtf Truu man it was floyd who started conor name and he himself said that rumour abt fighting conor was started by him.i accept ronda used floyd name but in conor case it was floyd who used it
Ellis Bryant ooh maaate!!! Floyd ain't fuckn destroying anybody!!!! stop being a comedian. Now you wanna see funny?? let Floyd jump in the octagon with mcgregor!!! can you imagine the screaming that Floyd would do!! nah seriously mate as you know there to different sports! it takes a different breed of fighter to step into the octagon. there fuckn mental!! boxing is a skill!!
This is Conor just trying to make a bigger name of himself at Floyds expense. What does Floyd really have to prove to a dude that has a boxing license? Congrats, what does he want, a cookie? Show me you belong in my sport before you come to the king.
Yeah... cause it's not like Floyd posted an insta pic of a fake promo between him and Conor right? It's not like Floyd went out in public and said that he started the rumors right? It's not like Floyd said that he thought the fight would happen right? Lol...... you don't even know what you are talking about...
scared, really skip.... floyd being scared of Connor is like skip being scared to debate colin cowherd... he can make a good point every now and then, but over the course of a full debate he has no chance.
Think about it, they only talk about what's popular in ufc or boxing, and obviously that's what common fans wanna hear but someone that actually keeps up with the sports know that their are other fighters out there other than conor mcgregor or Floyd Mayweather
Mayweather losing to Connor? So...Guys who specifically specialize In boxing, the "left with a right" great puncher pacquiao couldn't beat Floyd, but Connor can? Skip..stop. Please, you're looking as bad as a random bar guy who watches boxing once a decade man.
Sabrina Garcia Exactly this! It doesn't even make sense and is actually disrespectful to boxers like Pacquiao. I mean, if there was any time Connor had a chance this would be it, considering Floyd's retirement. But there is no way Connor beats him in a serious boxing match. It would just be a cash grab for both men preying on casual fans who think it's a close match up and would buy into the hype.
first comment on here telling the truth on the whole pac and mayweather fight. pac was already declining, but so is mayweather. i think connor probably could knock out mayweather, just saying connor is in his prime, and mayweather long out of his. plus for 100$million dollars reportedly for the fight, why not?
S OD hahaha you idiot sloppy nate beat him and hurt him! he wouldn't touch Floyd,it's okay to doubt someone when he has no chance but a lucky punch just like anyone
He wouldn't touch floyd with technique wildly throwing MAYBE just like me or you could do lol not contradiction two different things I was talking about.
David Bee There is nothing that says he would box like that, just like wrestlers in MMA, there are differences between wrestling in a wrestling match and wrestling in a fight.
Or......Castillo beat him...He really got a loss....Or he ducked some random cab driver who called Floyd out....Or everybody he fought was old & washed up when Mayweather schooled them.....Or he wouldn't last if he was born in a different decade other than God intended and faced Duran, Chavez, Leonard...etc....Or the man who has fought in front of millions of people in a 1 on 1 sport in which an objective is to knock your opponent out of their conscious mind for 30+ years and been Champion for 19 of those years is a chicken...............blah blah blah
most people are here because Conor's name is mentioned and Mayweather received something free which he always treasure but eludes him all the time i.e. publicity
This is going to be so funny for anyone like Skip who actually thinks Conor has a chance, I want to see Floyd get an easy W and get 50-0 and retire as the 🐐!
Carlos Henao canelo was huge compared to him idiot lol. Diaz went up too :) but how would you know you don't watch mma McGregor and Diaz are both true 155ers
***** buy Diaz has 11 losses he isn't even good lol many guys have dropped him including rda and Henderson,6 months and he would destroy who 49 couldn't? This is getting out of hand he could beat Mayweather with 2 years of straight boxing...WAKE UP! What does Conor have that Canelo and pacquiao dont? Canelo has more power with bigger gloves and had size on mayweather,paquiao is faster moves more,and throws more please tell me what he has that they don't to beat 49-0 Mayweather that Noone could solve.
BOTTOM LINE: Floyd is retired, he's 40yrs old, he's 49-0 Why should he fight Conor, there is millions of tough young fighters out there, so you guys want Floyd to fight all of them until he's 90yrs old, what sense does that make? It's not like he's calling people out.
360SRH 2 Im with you. Floyd is done. So why are people really egging this on? If I was Floyd I would just be sitting back laughing at everyone and counting my millions. His record is flawless and he is chilling. People are sooo disrespectful
You are absolutely correct. Mr. Floyd would beat Connors eyes shut. Because floyd has superior skills. Now why the Bigoted comment? Let me take a wild guess. Your a hater or an idiot.
Richard Elliott Do you seriously think he's trying too hard? He's just a very confident dude. He makes the show funny and interesting. Plus, it's good to have two point of views on this show.
Jesse L lol seriously? maywather is washed up.look at his last excuse for a fight. mcgregor made over 70 million this year alone.he has broken the last 3 mma pay per view records. . why dafuq does he need Floyd?
peddle you're gonna want to check your figures, McGregor hasn't made even a third of what you claim, Mayweather is on a different planet when in comes to earnings, that's why McGregor wants the fight, there is only one big show in town and Connor wants to ride on in at the back end of it.
Conor already makes 25-30 million a fight after his ppv cut and has drew twice ( nearly triple)as many buys in 1 year than the entire sport of boxing in 2016 the UFC need him more than they seem to think lets see how well the ppv's do for the next six to nine months without him
Conor has what, 2 fights left on his contract, he could go to Bellator and he alone would make it relevant and competitive to the UFC, and they would pay him alot of money
from what i saw in McGregors last fight. I might want to see this. His boxing was absolutly on fire. He's in his prime. He's fast, he's got amazing punching power, and he is in his prime. I know he's in experienced but there is always that chance.
Shannon killed Skip with the driver license/nascar analogy.
that's wrong analogy,just like elephant and ant
It's absolutely correct. Just because you have a boxing license doesn't mean you are a great boxer. The license just means you are medically fit to fight, it doesn't mean you are good.
+AgentJ2007 Preach!
No he didn't cause it was a poor analogy. An accurate one would be more like a Formula 1 driver doing a nascar race. Which is not at all crazy and has happened.
Bluesteel right. he's acting like Connor has never thrown a real punch in a real fight. It's not like this the first time he's had to land or dodge a punch, he's been making millions doing that and more for years. Sure the sports are different, but it's not like he's some scrub or total newbie who has no experience. I can promise you there are worse boxers than McGregor.
floyd doesn't fight outside of vegas, so conor getting a license in california means nothing
naturalselector85 and conor doesnt fight in vegas anymore so
in nevada let alone
naturalselector85
Floyd is overrated
Thank you . and conor is the exact opposite, he fights the best.Adam Leon
Adam Leon yea 49-0 is overrated gtf
How can anyone with BASIC knowledge of fighting even THINK, that Connor Mcgreggor can outbox Floyd Mayweather?

ricardo gil conor started boxing when he was a kid then started training for MMA

NLSwag facts bro Conner couldn't beat Manny, that dud need to chill
Floyd could not destroy a pillow.
Something came in the mail today you right if it's all about the money get it how you live but just on the Conner beating Floyd naw.
Lol. you are a funny one. You totally made yourself completely irrelevant in all things sports. Can't even respect you enough to argue. Palraja Pal
I'm a huge McGregor fan and I don't like Mayweather very much but it's funny Skip calls Mayweather out for his ego and not Conor..
He's a plain hater
McGregor is a humble man, and his ego is nothing like Mayweather's.
Andreas Tryggeseth his money ain't either lol
True
Andreas Tryggeseth Define humble
"Not MMA you.. not UFC you.." God someone take them off the air.
If he received his license in Vegas I would believe it.... Floyd not going to fight out of Vegas we all no this.....
Jabbar porter why not if theres 100 plus millon on the line?
glen paul yea like floyd would probably fight in Russia for 100 million lol
Jabbar porter exactly. Connor knew what he was doing.
+Your Mother i think anyone would fight in north korea for 100 million.
floyd would fight in somalia for 100mil XD
Will this fight happen?
UNDISPUTED ON FS1
I really hope so
i hope not...waste of time
UNDISPUTED ON FS1 Floyd doesnt want it. Mystic Mac is a bad marchup for him. Other boxers dont have the speed, precision and power that mcgregor has.
naturalselector85 how is it a waste of time
because floyd would win easily...lol
Shannon is funny af lmaoo
skip just really wants floyd to lose a fight.... news flash it aint gonna happen. floyd only fights in vegas.
#teammoney
He would win anywhere against Mcgregor. Only way Mcgregor would fight him is if the money was worth being humiliated for.
Glenn Lawrence lmao before mcgregor band wagons came to light at 47-0 floyd said he had 2 fights left and he was done. He retired to stay physically and mentally healthy and they want him to do it to please who? lmao people like Skip is why Floyd made 300 mill in a few hours

Well, a guy took his license at 25 y/o at 30 he was a 24 hours Le Man champion in LMP. Now all of this without never had driven a car before 25.
Funny how Ellerbe is saying that McGregor is using Floyds name for publicity, but Floyd was the one who originally considered this matchup when he tweeted the mock fight poster. Run, Floyd, Run.
There is NO WAY on EARTH he would WIN. Thats the problem.
what was the purpose of Floyd saying something about fighting McGregor?
SHEM HIM you are probably correct. Probably. Only one way to find out

so true.

Win a boxing match before u expect to fight a guy who is 49-0
comments like these make me lol, sounds ur you dont even know who conor is.
John Pange he picks and chooses
John Pange Aldo is undefeated in 10 years,,,but conor comes and ends his legacy...there is something special in him
its not undefeated part, ppl dont undertsand of how big aldo was as well they thought he was the best featherweight to ever live in ufc after what he did to faber
why would the biggest draw and money man in the entire fight world have to fight anyone else other than the biggest draw and money man undefeated retired boxer? Mayweather wants this fight much more than pacquio or anyone else, he wants that 200M$

Rick S yet McGregor whooped nate Diaz and Diaz would dismantle floyd too. McGregor Boxing is supreme
Heych otb 😂This nonsense has to stop you're delusional and know nothing about boxing if you believe that.

Big Boss true fight means where everything can be used not only one thing and we knows wht will happen if conor and floyd fights not box😂😂
big boss, just go and fight somebody and you'll see what a true fight is
your definition of fight?
Fidel Castro lol
Boxing match with MMA gloves....
floyd would never agree to that
That would be dumb mma gloves are made for grappling that's why they're so small and don't cover your hands completely which if you're only boxing for 12 rounds they're not very practical now boxing gloves are made only for punching so they protect your hands from Injuries and trust me boxing gloves do cause damage just like an mma glove
So someone can get poked in the eye? Naaaw.

svgm you gotta be kidding brother. you get touched on the chin with an mma glove you go to sleep. Still standing? the next punch leaves you twitching on the ground in a seizure.
Floyd will never do it. Never takes the tough fights
Titanium PVP this will be easy work for Floyd
CD's
So sick of people who have no grasp of boxing, talking about boxing. McGregor would get wrecked, end of story.
Conor would be his easiest fight.
so cotto was an easy fight lol Floyd edged a lot of his fights
I don't know if skip is trying to convince the audience or himself?
popcrnshower himself because his hate for floyd
Freddie roach laughed at mcgregor because he was getting that WORKfrom CHRIS VAN HEERDEN in sparring. I know that name is foreign to casual fight fans. Stick to mma Conor

1 inch taller

Floyd fought at 135 before Conor could never get to that weight ..his frames bigger than Floyds he would destroy Floyd ..at 40 floyd has no shot
Floyd will be bigger, dont believe me ? Look at his te ratios in 2011 and 2013, they suggest ped use ,
Not with those gloves
mcgregor gets owned....boxing in mma is different from real boxing....bigger gloves...harder to slip punches thru blocks with bigger gloves...he needs to use a different stance...he needs to put his hands up more....so many variables that mcgregor has to face that he hasnt shown yet....
How about Conor defend his title at least once before even mentioning Floyd's name again? Anderson Silva cleaned out his division, was the P4P best and Dana wouldn't let him box RJJ. Conor runs his mouth and can get a shot based on that? We all know what's going on here.
Did Anderson Silva clean out his division and then go on to win even another division? The answer may surprise you! (because its a no)
based on being the man
How many title defenses does conor have?
+Alex Ynoa . NONE
Two things: Anderson Silva is a cheater and he never, NEVER....brought in the numbers that Conor is bring in for the UFC. Conor is greater than Anderson Silva in every conceivable way.
"Jon Jones is a great fighter.. but he's not on my level"- CM Punk
This black dude is so funny when he talks lmao
That "black dude" was one badass football player by the name of Shannon Sharp.
Che_Borz PUT SOME RESPECK ON IT
its my favorite time of the week when these guys argue about this subject. classic. I love it. so funny.
😂😂😂 Skip is a savage! 👊👊
It's in California, Floyd doesn't fight outside of Nevada.
Conor doesn't fight there no more after the water bottle thing
Yeah true
McGregor beats Mayweather anywhere.... apart from in a boxing ring.
Lol Harper of course! Nobody has said otherwise! Skip is delusional thinking Conor could beat Floyd in a pure boxing match!
mcgregor needs to earn the right to fight Mayweather..... mcgregor vs canelo 1st
Saiyan God Broly GOD OF SAIYANS I think any boxer could let him fight amir Khan the list goes on and on
Xp Canelo would absolutely destroy him. Canelo is an animal in the ring. He has grown alot since the fight with Floyd
Xp I want to see him fight GGG
Loool.. It's not about anything else than money.
Canelo didn't call out mac n all these boxers are bum compared to McGregor. Except for undefeated mayweather
WTf, McGregor wouldn't even beat paqs, or any decent boxer, he should stay out of boxing, boxing is a total different world. He would get destroyed by any boxer who's professional
Beirut boy lol nah, its not like he aint got no training. However upper tier fighters would give him trouble.
Beirut boy conor was a champion boxer before got in mma. has been boxing since 15 .. trains and spars with pros... he is not a chump at boxing at all.
Matthew 123456 "spars with pros" and got beat up doing it idiot,he got hurt by no power Diaz and has no cardio
The pro you speak of ain't even ranked in the top 40 and he picked Conor apart easily
Beirut boy
Who cares if he'd lose.
I wanna see that fight.
It's about to go DOWN!!!
😄 Conor doesn't have a chance against Floyd in a boxing match period. Conor is a good boxer but it's the threat of his kicks that Conor uses to maintain the range that he wants
I swear if Stephen A and Shannon went against Maxwell and Skip I swear that would be good just seeing 2 real sport debaters killing some amateurs
mcgregor just wants a big payday
Can you blame him? lol
Mc Lovin We know Conor will lose, however let the man make his big pay and cash out.
Conor has a shot so not a sure thing
Conor can't even beat Canelo or Cotto, let alone Floyd. Conor wouldn't even TOUCH Floyd in a BOXING match.
but would you pay to see it anyways??? we all would!
+Deezus . The truth hurts
I can't parallel park to save my life but I have my license lol. Shannon was right about nascar
Eagles Fan driving ain't racing just like fighting ain't boxing. Shannon just dumb.
fabrizzio monsalve of course it is... MMA is fighting, boxing is fighting, BJJ is fighting, etc... with regard to his comment, if I were to put it simply for you:
walking = driving = being able to punch
running = racing = fighting
100m sprint = nacar/F1 = MMA/Boxing
So just because you are able to walk doesn't mean you can race Usain Bolt!!! That's the point!
Shannon made a dumb comment!
In the running = racing = fighting part specifically! A 400m runner can maybe compete with Usain Bolt... because he is a runner... an F1 racer can cross over to nascar and the other way around... because they have racing licenses! NOT driving licenses
lmao
Everytime Sharpe and Skip go into it.
I keep think of The Talladega Nights: Legend of Ricky Bobby
Don't you put that on me, Skip!!!
Floyd is 40. Has fought his whole life. Hasn't trained for about a year, let the man rest already I didn't see anyone calling him out when he was in his prime. Everyone wants to cash in now that he's not at his peak.
Well he called Conor out over a year ago, that's the ting about this whole situation. Floyd START the mega fight rumors and ever since Conor said yes he's backed down from it.
Well maybe the 40 year old should keep his mouth shut rather than start picking fights that he doesn't want to have at his age
Floyd trains everyday. He hasn't let his body go.
Alex Delamora I agree with you except for one thing....Floyd is always training!
Conor gonna get " what patty did to the drum" 😂😂😂 I love shannon
I just want to watch the press conferences.
Skip sometimes you are mental. Conor McGregor has shown his cardio would NEVER get him through 12 rounds...... HE BARELY GETS THROUGH 5!!!!
idiot, 5 rounds of 5 minutes, not 3 and I'd go as far as saying that MMA is harder on cardio than boxing because of the grappling exchanges, clinches, elbows, kicks, etc.
Mona Nordwall Well your talking about a completely different animal with MMA. Boxing is alot less stress on the mind and body compared to MMA
cardio in boxing is different than mma, u expend more energy in mma than boxing because you use or whole body.
Mona Nordwall he was 15-25 pounds ahead where he should fight at. Do some research casual
Mona Nordwall Lol because you have to worry about kicks and knees and wrestling and submissions in boxing right?!?
If it is a given win for Floyd, then take the fight and shut him up
"So because I got a drivers license, I guess I should do NASCAR? Stay in your lane skip!" funniest part
5:24
If i was Conor i'd drive to Floyds house in full boxing gear and just wait outside. It would be hilarious.
why boxing gear and pillow gloves? Real fighting with mma gloves.
Bob Davis lol boxing gloves have more powerful impact then fists or mma gloves
49-0
21-3
What's the difference?
against world champs not ameuture cage fighters
Mma rules not hands only
Daryus P a fighter looses cause at no matter the cause they will go in danger and fight till the end at any cost, mayweather never did that did he ? He hasn't fought out of Las Vegas he hasn't exchanged blows or anything he's not a fighter he's just a boxer know ur difference
connor said pull up!!!!
Mayweather is the most overrated athlete of all time
Brad Lamb Micheal Jordan is
Ignorant comment..
Greg Roman explain
HOW?
Brad Lamb wouldn't go that far his accomplishments are very impressive
Conor gets his licence and all of a sudden Floyd goes missing. Says it all, really.
crazydunker92 goes missing? Bro he got a life you know. He can't be out here responding to everything Conor related
Zoul125 he was the one who started conor thing so he shld be responding to everything
Zoul125 shut up, the whole UFC can't keep Floyds name out there mouth. First it was Ronda now it's Conor. One thing UFC doesn't have is history, they always compare every fighter to Floyd. In boxing we don't talk about Conor. We have other legendary fighters before him to compare him to.
Wtf Truu man it was floyd who started conor name and he himself said that rumour abt fighting conor was started by him.i accept ronda used floyd name but in conor case it was floyd who used it
He did he tried to get a fight going ages ago Conor turned it down saying he wants more money.
How is that floyds fault
Look how upset Shannon acts, yet knows deep down that Floyd will NEVER take that fight. Connor will destroy FLOYD!!
Myztery412 that doesnt make sense at all
Myztery412 sooooo true
no
The only boxing match I want to see is Ward vs. GGG.
Tyler Clavette agree
Tyler Clavette Ward would wreak GGG
5:23 why I love Shannon lmaooo
If Conor knock Mayfeather out. That would be the happiest day of my life.
Floyd Mayweather will destroy Mcgregor
Ellis Bryant Not in real fight..
Mankash911 Mcgregor is good but you talkin about Floyd Mayweather.
Ellis Bryant And ?
Ellis Bryant ooh maaate!!! Floyd ain't fuckn destroying anybody!!!! stop being a comedian. Now you wanna see funny?? let Floyd jump in the octagon with mcgregor!!! can you imagine the screaming that Floyd would do!! nah seriously mate as you know there to different sports! it takes a different breed of fighter to step into the octagon. there fuckn mental!! boxing is a skill!!
Nick Christofis keep on believing
at 03:35 This is where Stephen A Smith would say " Don't be disrespectful "
Tireur isolé don't like that guy
Tireur isolé it's "Don't you Dare be respectful"
Unwanted Yaz you got that right, haha !!
skip hates floyd so bad it's just hilarious 😂
Conor beats Floyd in a real fight... Floyd beats Conor in punching match.
Does anyone else find it awkward that there is always a girl sitting there watching them have a conversation and never really says anything?
they obviously have told her to not get into any of the discussions. skip seemed to hate alot of the remarks from cari and molly.
Skips rhetoric just shows how little he knows of boxing.
i love how skip loves mcgregor haha
Floyd the chicken
***** a champion that ducked? Yeah right
Big Boss Floyd ducked and he's a chicken, deal with it
49 - 0...
Rojelio Castro and???
Rojelio Castro if all you care about is an undefeated record you must be a casual boxing fan
This is Conor just trying to make a bigger name of himself at Floyds expense. What does Floyd really have to prove to a dude that has a boxing license? Congrats, what does he want, a cookie? Show me you belong in my sport before you come to the king.
Yeah... cause it's not like Floyd posted an insta pic of a fake promo between him and Conor right? It's not like Floyd went out in public and said that he started the rumors right? It's not like Floyd said that he thought the fight would happen right?
Lol...... you don't even know what you are talking about...
zachwhitlow4 McGregor is more popular than Mayweather currently.
boxed my whole life and I understand how good Mayweather is.... but I wouldn't bet against McGregor
honesty is good
scared, really skip.... floyd being scared of Connor is like skip being scared to debate colin cowherd... he can make a good point every now and then, but over the course of a full debate he has no chance.
is it me or does it seem like these guys have no idea what their talking about when it comes to mma or boxing.
john smoot it's you
Think about it, they only talk about what's popular in ufc or boxing, and obviously that's what common fans wanna hear but someone that actually keeps up with the sports know that their are other fighters out there other than conor mcgregor or Floyd Mayweather
watch the ufc podcasts and watch this lol these guys sound worse then kids arguing over who'd beat who no facts just straight up nonsense.
Should make it a two part fight, one Boxing rules only. The other MMA rules.
boxing rules only we'll see nothing but clinching and running from mayweather. MMA rules mayweather gets destroyed in 30 seconds
Nah just give them both 4 ounces gloves. I'll mortgage my house and put it all on McGregor if they did that... easy money.
This fight shouldn't even happen, Floyd will be 40 while Conor's 29, Not fair!! Atleast wait till he's 50 for a chance at winning Conor.
"Just because I got a driver's license, I should drive Nascar?" LOL!
Mayweather losing to Connor? So...Guys who specifically specialize In boxing, the "left with a right" great puncher pacquiao couldn't beat Floyd, but Connor can? Skip..stop. Please, you're looking as bad as a random bar guy who watches boxing once a decade man.
lefty with a right*
Sabrina Garcia Exactly this! It doesn't even make sense and is actually disrespectful to boxers like Pacquiao. I mean, if there was any time Connor had a chance this would be it, considering Floyd's retirement. But there is no way Connor beats him in a serious boxing match. It would just be a cash grab for both men preying on casual fans who think it's a close match up and would buy into the hype.
Sabrina Garcia lol....floyd fought Manny a decade to late...and pacman was injured...
first comment on here telling the truth on the whole pac and mayweather fight. pac was already declining, but so is mayweather. i think connor probably could knock out mayweather, just saying connor is in his prime, and mayweather long out of his. plus for 100$million dollars reportedly for the fight, why not?
+Alex Palacios Pacman is two years younger than Floyd, and was still destroying guys. Lol
Mr. Sharp is on point. It's a power-play to demonstrate he wants a piece of UFC promotions [pie]. Smart move, btw.
Skip is a troll
Itscool2beu and lose mostly all his debates
Well skip is getting paid more than 5.5M USD a year for trolling on Fox so now who's the winner? Pretty sure he is.
Yep lol
TheTomtah what his money got to do with him trolling the people 🤔🤔🤔
TheTomtah truth tho
What Did Patty do to the Drum...LMFAO
Conor knows he'll lose. He'll fight Floyd for the $100m+
Man skip got murked here with his straw clutching 😂
Floyd is old and retired. leave him be. Floyd is not in his prime anymore. It wouldn't be a fair match.
I think the fact that it would be in a boxing ring probably isn't fair either. But Conor ain't bitchin
Life is God he would still win easily
Floyd would still beat him. Conor just want the check.
Life is God it wouldn't be fair for Connor
"Who's Patty?" LOL
I love allll these doubters. Just more people who will disappear after the fight actually happens. I really hope it does.
S OD hahaha you idiot sloppy nate beat him and hurt him! he wouldn't touch Floyd,it's okay to doubt someone when he has no chance but a lucky punch just like anyone
He wouldn't touch floyd with technique wildly throwing MAYBE just like me or you could do lol not contradiction two different things I was talking about.
Benny Lagoons you said he has no chance, then proceeded to say literally right after that he has a chance with a lucky punch.
S OD no chance except a lucky punch meaning no chance with skill vs skill, made that very clear with the word EXCEPT
Benny Lagoons EXACTLY LMFAO. No chance means not even a lucky punch. Anything is possible. Nothing in the fight game has NO chance.
Skip is Tripping
Yull do fookin nutin
these 2 have me cracking up😂
mcgregor going to get out boxed if he get in the ring!
Jevon Moore he just wants a payday
absolutely
connor couldnt beat a class C or B fighter... & skip has lost his mind, he said because he has a left & right.. The hate for Floyd as a boxer is crazy
The fight would last as long as maywheather permitted it to last.
Keith Jackson he has beat the best in the world
Genaro Prencipe only the best the UFC allows
Keith Jackson The UFC overall has the best fighters in the world
David Bee There is nothing that says he would box like that, just like wrestlers in MMA, there are differences between wrestling in a wrestling match and wrestling in a fight.
Please Please make it happen so we can hear the 50th excuse and all the novice boxing fans say I bet Mike Tyson would knock his head off!!! LOL
Or......Castillo beat him...He really got a loss....Or he ducked some random cab driver who called Floyd out....Or everybody he fought was old & washed up when Mayweather schooled them.....Or he wouldn't last if he was born in a different decade other than God intended and faced Duran, Chavez, Leonard...etc....Or the man who has fought in front of millions of people in a 1 on 1 sport in which an objective is to knock your opponent out of their conscious mind for 30+ years and been Champion for 19 of those years is a chicken...............blah blah blah
you know it !!!
w 😂 Floyd the goat
most people are here because Conor's name is mentioned and Mayweather received something free which he always treasure but eludes him all the time i.e. publicity
This is going to be so funny for anyone like Skip who actually thinks Conor has a chance, I want to see Floyd get an easy W and get 50-0 and retire as the 🐐!
TheMoneyTeamAngel people really think Conor can win hahaha he got stopped by sloppy Diaz
Carlos Henao canelo was huge compared to him idiot lol.
Diaz went up too :) but how would you know you don't watch mma
McGregor and Diaz are both true 155ers
Trevor James great point trailer trash! Haha lets talk fighting not insults or I can do that easily too
***** buy Diaz has 11 losses he isn't even good lol many guys have dropped him including rda and Henderson,6 months and he would destroy who 49 couldn't? This is getting out of hand he could beat Mayweather with 2 years of straight boxing...WAKE UP!
What does Conor have that Canelo and pacquiao dont? Canelo has more power with bigger gloves and had size on mayweather,paquiao is faster moves more,and throws more please tell me what he has that they don't to beat 49-0 Mayweather that Noone could solve.
***** timing speed and power vs mma fighters not boxers lol that's the point.
i hope
BOTTOM LINE: Floyd is retired, he's 40yrs old, he's 49-0 Why should he fight Conor, there is millions of tough young fighters out there, so you guys want Floyd to fight all of them until he's 90yrs old, what sense does that make? It's not like he's calling people out.
360SRH 2 Im with you. Floyd is done. So why are people really egging this on? If I was Floyd I would just be sitting back laughing at everyone and counting my millions. His record is flawless and he is chilling. People are sooo disrespectful
Andrew Hogue
His record is amazing, it goes above Marciano's 49-0. Marciano had lot's of set-up fights from the mob, Floyd earned all of his..
connor said floyd called him up trying to get the fight started, not the other way around
Yuri Yuki I doubt it. But If that's the case the fight will happen but I dont think it will.
Yuri Yuki
Show me a video or any proof of that.
Sharpe's face in the thumbnail lmao
Mayweather will crush McGregor in a boxing fight. This white guy is high.
floyd ain't no kovalev.
Kovalev ain't no Floyd.
floyd has never crushed anybody in his life
You are absolutely correct. Mr. Floyd would beat Connors eyes shut. Because floyd has superior skills. Now why the Bigoted comment? Let me take a wild guess. Your a hater or an idiot.
+Rikki G Pomana WHAT???
where is the podcast
Sharp doesn't make sense ever
Michael S'more but Skip Bayless does?
Michael S'more No, you just don't pay attention.
Michael S'more Shannon looks like he's trying too hard. I know it's a show but this is too much acting
Richard Elliott Do you seriously think he's trying too hard? He's just a very confident dude. He makes the show funny and interesting. Plus, it's good to have two point of views on this show.
"because I have a drivers license I can do NASCAR" skip face was salty 😂
McGregor just trying to get the Mayweather sweepstakes payday.
***** Your smoking dust...Floyd is the biggest draw in boxing
+Wizkid Science You have got to be trolling!!
Jesse L lol seriously?
maywather is washed up.look at his last excuse for a fight.
mcgregor made over 70 million this year alone.he has broken the last 3 mma pay per view records. .
why dafuq does he need Floyd?
peddle you're gonna want to check your figures, McGregor hasn't made even a third of what you claim, Mayweather is on a different planet when in comes to earnings, that's why McGregor wants the fight, there is only one big show in town and Connor wants to ride on in at the back end of it.
Paul Mcgrouin really? 23 million from his last fight alone.
check YOUR stats
Conor already makes 25-30 million a fight after his ppv cut and has drew twice ( nearly triple)as many buys in 1 year than the entire sport of boxing in 2016 the UFC need him more than they seem to think lets see how well the ppv's do for the next six to nine months without him
Conor has what, 2 fights left on his contract, he could go to Bellator and he alone would make it relevant and competitive to the UFC, and they would pay him alot of money
Samcar I agree he could make that company big within a year or 2 where it matches the ufc..
dicpher0805 lithical by whom exactly haha
i love skip he knows whats he is talking about, conor will drop floyd anyday letsssss gooooooo
Lets see him fight in a boxing ring against some good boxers before he face the undefeated Mayweather
ZuffyG think you're missing the point here fella
YANITED We won't be Mayweather or any good boxer. Thats my point, fella
ZuffyG Conner couldn't beat any of the last 30 fighters Floyd fought.
from what i saw in McGregors last fight. I might want to see this. His boxing was absolutly on fire. He's in his prime. He's fast, he's got amazing punching power, and he is in his prime. I know he's in experienced but there is always that chance.
