And fair fucks to the lad.
surely is trumps everything in Irish sport
To borrow a phrase thanks for the cheese
I don’t think anything sums up the Irish sporting dream more than a cocky wee shit who mopped up a load of simpletons money by filling them full of yarns, backed up by a modicum of talent and balls as big as dump trucks.
This can be as big as the fight between Hulk Hogan and Rocky Balboa .
I wonder will he repay the dole money that kept him going while he refused to work while gymming it
Why would he?
He has paid countless more back
Because he can afford to?
I don’t follow boxing but i checked out the odds on this and you can back Mayweather at 1/5 to beat this knacker McGregor. What’s the catch lads? @cluaindiuic @Watch_The_Break
This is a gimmick fight and Mayweather is 49-0 he’s not going to lose for the first time to this chump. I thought he’d be 1/50 or something.
Thought so too but the dumb money must be pouring in. McGregor has no chance whatsoever. To all intents and purposes you would have a similar chance of victory yourself.
“In any boxing match, if a guy throws a roundhouse kick to the head, there’s going to be a penalty,” Attar said.
But how to you decide in that
Looking at oddschecker history Mayweather opened up 1/33 with Skybet, 1/25 with Bet365 and 1/20 with Boylesports. So those prices would be an indication of something closer to his ‘real price’. I’d even go as far as to say something shorter than that because the bookies will be conscious not to offer something stupid on the other side because all of his many fan boys across the world may well back him. Paddy Power were 1/9 day one but understandable they’d wanted to be shortest price across the industry on McGregor due to the sheer wave of mug money they’ll be attracting from Oireland on McGregor. So McGregor was anything from 9/1 to 11/1 at the start and you’d imagine almost all the traffic is only going to have been coming for him with mugs putting their tenners and twenties on him. But Mayweather looks incredibly attractive now at odds of 1/5. If he had one hand tied behind his back he’d still be favourite.
I’d say the odds will even out soon enough with the smart people seeing the odds and going big on Mayweather
@horsebox, if you want a 20% return on your investment then load up here. No bank will give you a 20% return over 10 weeks.
On a side note, is it possible this could end as a draw? I don’t understand boxing fully so don’t know how the scoring works.
Mayweather 12 rounds unanimous decision seems a certainty
It’s a novice boxer against a hall of famer. No way Mayweather loses unless he throws the fight, which he won’t, or there’s some sort of freak incident. Like Floyd falling out of the ring or something.
McGregor won’t last 12 rounds unless Floyd wants him to.
12 rounds? There’s not a hope this goes 12 rounds. He’ll let the knacker have one round and i reckon he’ll knock him out then in either round two or three. Lets be honest he can knock him out whenever he wants to.
