You're an allegedly professed pacifist and you are complaining that a fight isn't working out to your liking . . . you're a complete fraud. |
and you are still an (bleep) |
At least I'm consistent and honest |
and an ignorant judge
maybe you should join an official group of dumb (bleep) |
How am I "ignorant"?
You rant an extremely anti-violence position with huge judgement on a daily basis, condemning people all the the time for their lack of compassion and their propensity for violence.
How am I "ignorant" for pointing out the very evident irony in that? |
Professional
Sanctioned
Refereed
Agreed upon between the two men
I used to hate all fighting sports until I saw the camaraderie
the incredible sportsmanship
Seeing fight of the nights with two men bloodied terribly.. yet hugging each other with gratitude for the great fight
Wars.. dumb cow americans voting to murder people with bombs like it makes it official.. I am against this form of violence *officially |
You're a lunatic. |
Explain
Dont just run your mouth and run off.. |
You actually need me to explain? Your crazy rants in the political discussion thread for one thing. |
So you call people you do not agree with names.. cool.. good to know
Maybe you don't think deep enough to understand the rants...
You really don't investigate what america does in other countries and you don't care so you side with your buddy DMR and decide to call me names too |

Ahh yes, McGregor and Mayweather. The epitome of "camaraderie
the incredible sportsmanship"
  |
Is this all you snipped?
you skipped the next lines
go troll elsewhere |
I haven't "snipped" anything. Nor am I "trolling". I'm just just addressing obvious inconsistencies in your rants. |
Yes.. you started the (bleep) trolling like a jackass calling me names and calling me out |
Nope. I just pointed out an obvious inconsistency in how you approach things. |
you're a (bleep) fraud  |

Boxing was a great sport growing up when I was a kid but mma is better and has been better for a long time.
This is mostly likely the last boxing fight I watch |

wow what the heck was going on earlier in this thread? I come in here and everyone is at each others throats.
My only gripe about this fight was Mayweather constantly pivoting so that his back was to Conor. This tactic should have penalized Mayweather for points had it gone the distance. He did it like 8 times.
Otherwise, it was an exciting and engaging match, well fought and entertaining. |

Everybody won from the fight. Both fighters got paid. It was worth the PPV cost for the customer. And both boxing and UFC fanbases will get more crossover fans.
Everyone won.

That was the most entertaining Floyd fight in years. I was far more into it than I thought I would be. I thought that McGregor was clearly controlling the fight for the first 5 rounds. I had him up 4-1 after 5. I thought Floyd was bothered by Conor's length/reach and height early on. Perhaps he's telling the truth and he was just trying to let him tire himself out, who knows. What I do know is that McGregor did start to tire, and Floyd turned the tide. In the final two rounds, McGregor was gassed and Floyd, though he wasn't landing everything, really put it on him in those final moments. I thought the stoppage was a little early, but I understand it from the perspective of the ref. It's always a tough call when you see a guy not throwing punches back AT ALL, and when you also notice that his hands aren't high up on his head in defense, and he looks that wobbly and gassed. I can see why he stopped it.
For the record, I had McGregor up 5 rounds to 4 after 9 rounds, and I thought he won a minimum of 4 rounds. Two of the three scorecards were an absolute joke. |

I agree with the showtime scorecard. First 3 to McGregor. Floyd from then on.
Here is the Compubox:

Floyd outlanded McGregor from round 5 on. Tied in the 4th. With a way better %.

I don't go strictly by Compubox. If that were a be-all, end-all, then there would literally be no need for judges. They could just look at the strict data and announce who won. I'm just telling you, from the way I saw the fight, I had him winning 4 of the first 5 rounds. I think he clearly won the first 3 and then the next 2 were quite close, and I split those 2. I can't remember which round I had him winning after that, but I had him winning 1 more. Certainly, I can understand if someone had Floyd ahead. But 89-81 or 89-82 is a complete farce. Floyd did absolutely nothing for the first 3 rounds, and there is supposed to be something to ring generalship/being the aggressor, and Floyd was just in a cocoon and doing nothing early. You can't give a guy rounds for that. I felt like it was a 100% certainty that it was 3-0 for Conor after 3 and then we can go from there. |

Never compare that woman-beater/child-threatener/dancer with Kobe. Kobe attacks with fire. Mayweather just dances around until the other side is tired and then takes advantage like a (bleep). |
50-0.
I've only seen the Pacquaio fight, which I thought was boring, but hey the guy knows how to win and make lots of money doing it.

its not a complete farce when you look at the compubox numbers and realize one guy threw a ton of punches and missed a ton of punches while another guy threw a lot less but landed more. This means what you thought you saw...you didnt actually see. You get my point? THere's a reason they say eyewitnesses are not that reliable. |

I'm sorry, if you thought that was an 89-82 fight through 9 rounds, I'm not sure what to tell you. Compubox is not a be-all, end-all. Not all punches are the same. They count a lot of things as "punches" that are nothing. It's reasonable that someone could've had Floyd ahead, as I said. But 89-82 is preposterous. At minimum, he lost the first 3 rounds. Floyd did nothing for the first 3 rounds.
It's not like I'm out on an island here, by the way. I know that SI had it 4-4 through 8 rounds, and the Showtime "judge" had it 5-4 Mayweather after 9. Obviously, Floyd poured it on in the last 2-3 rounds, as we know. |

In boxing doing nothing for 3 rounds can actually win you a round as disgraceful as that is. God, I'd to see one of these boxing (bleep) step in the octagon. I'd take the UFC dude with 1 arm and 1 leg ina (bleep) blood bath. "Omg ref, thave me he's holding". The era wher this mystique of boxing being the toughest guys is thankfulloy is comically over. Trash. Dog (bleep). It's a game, a sport. It's NOT A FIGHT.

Again, I just think this is where common sense and actually watching the fight has to come in, instead of just looking at statistics from the fight. Conor was throwing a lot of punches in the first 3 rounds, certainly. Of course most of them weren't direct hits, but he was landing plenty of jabs and definitely landed punches in those rounds. Floyd was basically just defending and hardly throwing punches at all in those first 3 rounds. Judges tend to reward aggressors. Just ask Jeff Horn. Just ask Oscar De La Hoya, who lost at least 3 fights because he basically took a knee late when he thought he had it won. There's no consistency in judging, which is obviously not an earth-shattering statement. All I can do, as an impartial observer, is watch the fight and take into account everything that's happening, which includes how much a guy is throwing, how much he is landing, who the aggressor is, and how many power shots get through. All punches aren't even close to equal, and any suggestion to the contrary is total crap.
That was not an 89-82 fight. Y'all can kiss my grits if you think it was. |

And watching the old boxing heads with their smug looks was despicable. Christ, and 0-0 fighter went 10 rounds and (bleep) won at least 3 to the eyes of everyone but the compubox (bleep). 0-0 fighter. Smug ass Sal Paolatonio all giddy as a little (bleep) like the rest of them.
These lame gashes should all be choked the hell out. "Ref thave me, heth holding me". (bleep) and scum (bleep).

I'm right behind you homie. I'd just love, LOVE to see these boxing (bleep) try to step into the cage.
10 rounds? Try 10 seconds. It would be a death in seconds. And to be smug about it. Get the hell ouf of here. Trash asses...
