    Mayweather 1/12. A good yield if anyone has £120k in an old suit.

    1st 30 seconds KO either way would be funny as.

    I have a feeling Connor McGregor is going to surprise a lot of people.

    Mayweather hasn't fought in two years, which won't help him.

    But if it's a fight held under the rules of boxing he should still have far too much for Mcgregor.

    He's 40, the other guy is 28. It all comes down to whether McGregor can land one.

    True. But Mayweather is/was one of the best boxers there ever was.

    If Mayweather gets himself back in shape, I can't see Mcgregor getting near him. But, as you say, if he gets careless!.....

    Cocky big mouthed Connor McGregor is good at what he does but it aint boxing. Lets hope Mayweather destroys him in the first 20 seconds.

    Conor isn't even undefeated in MMA, there's not a chance he'll beat what is arguably the best boxer of all time. He'll hit air for 90% of the fight.

    Either Floyd wins by an easy UD, or he gets a TKO once Conor tires from hitting air, or he gets a DQ win once Conor becomes frustrated and tries a wheel kick or shoots for a pathetic take down like he did against Nate.

    McGregor knows exactly what he's doing here, he's going to hype the **** out of this fight but once that bell rings it's a first class ticket to blitzville because he's dealing with one of the best boxers of all time and he's not even a boxer.

    Mayweather rarely gets hit, even by top boxers, he's got some crouching tiger hidden dragon **** going on, so I fully expect him to win even if it's a boring duck and dive job by both and it goes to a points score.

    It's all for show. They've been sharing the same plane together to get to these press conferences.

    McGregor can't hit as hard as a lot of boxers that Floyd has faced. Plus Floyd has got them wearing those 10oz non strikers gloves for this fight. Farce.

    I prefer it when Connor McGregor is genuinely angry....not this fake stuff. The press conferences have been embarrassing. CM trying too hard to come across as a twat and Mayweather taking all the insults because he just sees the ££££

    But if someone wants to pay for it, then cool, Desperate stuff

    I'll be watching it on a stream

    I'm not paying for this freak show. Do we know what the undercard is yet?

    Eubank is on tonight against Arthur Abraham. Who is going to pay £16 for that?

    I'm not too sure about the undercard. Imagine paying £16 quid to watch that **** when I watched all of Mike Tyson's career for free on ITV...not happening

    Ok...just had a quick google. There's a woman's boxing match and a few other boxers who are contracted to Mayweather productions. Basically the undercard will be FM promoting his fighters, you know incase he needs to make money...it's boxing, like football, a short career blah blah zzzzz

    Is Mayweather v McGregor a proper boxing contest or is it that ultimate fighting stuff? If it's boxing then McGregor won't get near him.
