Conor has never ever faced anything like Floyd. Floyd is an elusive, defensive, counter boxer. He's never been interested in 'fighting', he's spent his life boring the shit out of people by throwing out a weak jab and then running off and swerving, slipping and sliding anything that is thrown at him. All bar one of Conor's fight have been against people that are happy to stand infront of him and let him unload, Diaz being the only one that didn't, and can actually 'box' a bit. Conor struggled with him in the first fight, and was knackered by the end of their 2nd 5 round fight. He's going to have to put up with the horrible style of mayweather refusing to engage, and peppering him with weak shots, and him being happy to take Conor into deep deep water in the later rounds, where Conor will most likely be dead on his feet.
Conor has a punchers chance to win this fight, IF he lands on Floyd, cleanly, I just can not see Floyd being able to take that power, I just can't. He's never been hit cleanly with that amount of power in life, and Conor has put people away before with iron chins. Problem is, Floyd has never been landed on in his entire life for a reason, and he's had to deal with fighters with much better accuracy, timing and precision than Conor, maybe even more power too.
For me this is a fighter vs a boxer, 2 similar but also very different sports.
I can't stand either, and a double ko would be best, but I would like to highlight the fact that Conor is a utd fan.......
