Though so many people are on GGG over Canelo, does anyone think putting down on Canelo is worth it just because is it more than obvious that the promotors want him to win this one? If this fight goes to a close decision, please tell me why they would give it to GGG????????
I wouldn't give Magny the standup advantage here. Pettis and Cowboy should have had standup advantages against RDA and you know how that turned out. Magny doesn't possess some nasty KO power in his punches like Heathen and Eddie Alv.
Can someone research how Pettis and Cowboy's reach compared...
Am I blind or I am the only one seeing value in RDA even at -200? Neil Magny does not have the attributes that seem to beat RDA. A major grappling advantage i.e. Clay Guida (fight would go way different today at the same weight IMO) + Khabib or some nasty knockout power i.e. Eddie Alvarez +...
This sport is as unpredictable as the lottery numbers but I have to comment that all the proof that you are showing is based on hypothetical improvements that Conor has yet to show in a fight. Nate also has the ability to spar with more talented boxers who have the exact same height and style as...
Outside of Diaz, who is the biggest person McGregor has fought? Dennis Siver? Many many of Conor's past opponents have also fought at 135 or dropped to 135 later on.
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ - publicity stunt. This fight is going to sell big. Do you know how many more people are going to buy the PPV after seeing that? Many. Both camps are getting scary good at selling fights now. I think the Diaz brothers can both plenty of multi-million dollar...
Also when you keep in mind 1st fights such as GSP vs Serra 1 and Cain vs JDS 1, they had that ending where it was too quick. I don't like to use the word 'fluke' but that's the best word I can think of to describe these 2 fights or might we say ... "inconclusive"? Keeping in mind that both these...
So I'm guessing the worry that Conor will come in as a muay thai specialist this fight and smash Diaz's legs is null huh? ;). Diaz was checking MJ's kicks however - not all of them but about 50%. There was improvement shown.
Kicking is another factor that we need to take into consideration.
Nate has been stopped by a headkick from Josh Thompson and also had his leg mashed up by RDA. Nate does throw kicks also but is more effective with knees than with kicks. To date he has never finished a fight with a kick or set...
I wanted to add that if the first fight had ended like for example JDS vs. Cain 1 where it was a crazy 1 punch 30 seconds into the fight KO, I would lean towards not betting seeing as it didn't play out long enough to predict a best out of 3 (which the JDS vs. Cain trilogy showed us).
Even...
Yes, but his last 5/6 fights were scheduled for 5 rounds. How does a doctor come in and make Conor a cardio machine when he was supposed to be able to handle 5 rounds in all of his fights since 2014?
Being as realistic as possible and without bias, how does a doctor coming in to work on Conor's cardio make a difference when Conor has been fighting 5 round main events in his last 5/6 fights? What major difference can a doctor do in 6 months that will give him any imaginable cardio edge over...
Why I think Nate is going to win and some of the logical fallacies I am seeing presented by Conor or by people on him:
1. The full camp/short notice debacle
One thing we have to remember about Conor is that he had a full camp in his preparation for RDA. RDA is a very durable, BJJ black belt...
Anyone give reasons as to why they should choose Jabouin over Arantes? I think Arantes has the advantage in every category including age, past competition, recent performances and etc... I don't see how Yves can win except for a robbery decision. Let me know everyone!
