Mayweather has been talking up McGregors chances so I doubt he will want to end things super early. He wins this by stoppage for sure but reckon it goes to 6th a la Gatti.

There is a fair chance of this happening - I don't think that Floyd has had a ko since Hatton - he just wants to win and doesn't give a fook about the macho stuff (unlike McGregor).

As said earlier, I can only see a really shite fight with Floyd winning on points or late on when Mcgregor blows out or does something daft.

I still cannot believe how many people - from random casuals and people on tv and radio - who are not only giving McGregor a chancy but actually backing him to win.

I just genuinely do not get it. I am that confused by it that I have even questioned myself as I must be missing something.

McGregor won't get disqualified. He'll lose too much money if he does so.

Is there something in the contract that states this?

Someone will go down anyway

From what Floyd senior says McGregor would lose 90% of his purse if any illegal tactics are used

Wow, if that's true that's one hell of a clause, who would get the £90m then Floyd?

That would be my assumption

I don't know if he'll have the self control if he's getting schooled. He was allegedly constantly fouling Malignaggi

Maybe he'll dive to the canvas looking to be choked out

He was fouling malignaggi with rough stuff in tight. Not elbows, kicks and chokes. Floyd constantly fouls in close too.

Floyd would be more proficient than McGregor at close-range fouling in the same way he'll be better at boxing from range

Seen quite a few people sharing this on my Facebook.. now if it goes down like it says - Mayweather gets dropped before Conor gets pulled in the 11th due to a shoulder injury ....

Can only see dodgy news websites reported his death tho.. so not even sure if the killing is true or not

He was testing what he could get away with. That's why Joe Cortez was there. McGregor will not throw away circa 90% of his purse.

McG wont be stupid enough to get himself DQd I shouldn't think

It's certainly possible. Panic wrestling may also occur.
