Wide Butt is better than others on here.
Is UPS crying Poor (underfunded non-union retirement) for more major takeaways?

Yes I'll be watching the fight. A group of us are getting together to watch it. The issue I see Connor having is he's not used to people being able to just hug you when you get to close. I believe Connor will have to be very aggressive but Floyd will tie him up in a hug every time.

Terrible advise. Now is the time to fight dirty. Rolling over never got anyone anything---except @Indecision---we know what he gets.
That's when Connor will thrive on my opinion. This is where he can use "dirty boxing". Perfectly legal but bordering on illegal. Muay Thai or Suntukan are staples in MMA. An example is clinching with the opposition and holding the back of his head while punching them in the ear. Hurts like a B and affects the equilibrium of the opponent. Mayweather will need to tap and run for 6 rounds. Then he will be fine. But, 40 years old and 2 years of ring rust? It's a factor. Anyone remember Buster Douglas? He beat a so-called "unbeatable" boxer.

Don't get me wrong I hope you're right. I'd love to see Floyd lose. Especially to a MMA guy. I just don't believe Connor has that great of boxing skills that people seem to think he has. I guess this is why people buy these fights to find out.
Definitely. People love the trash talking and story.

People are hilarious. Everybody is a fight expert, everybody is a football expert, everybody is a real estate expert, everybody is a market expert.
It ain't no good unless u put money on the wood!!!!

Only played high school football, but I've been fighting since I was 15. I did MMA before it was called MMA. Before protective gear. I'm Massachusetts we only had MAGA. Mostly smoker shows (unsanctioned matches) I haven't stopped training. What I do find outrageous is that the "experts" on television that never boxed or fought say Conor has a 0% chance against may. And I always refer to Buster Douglas. They gave him a zero percent chance. Some people are able to beat others. It all comes down to probability.

I dislike people who have massive opinions when it comes to sports but don't want to throw some money on the wood.

Oh great the old "you can't have a opinion on sports unless you gamble" line.
Yeah that works because everyone knows gamblers are the smartest people when it comes to sports. I don't know how these casinos and bookies stay in business with you smart gamblers taking all their money.
I watch sports and talk about sports because it's fun and entertaining. I don't need to bet on everything I watch just to have a opinion about one. Never once did me and Wide pretend to be experts. We were having a normal conversation about how we see the fight going. Sorry next time I'll put a quarter in a slot machine to make you feel better.

To be honest I rarely if ever bet. When I do it's usually not money.
Why lose money on a outcome I have no hand in.
I hope that's what you were asking me. You have to dumb down your posts for me.
First round knockout is +1600. I may bet 100 on that! 100 on Conor to win at +350.To be honest I rarely if ever bet. When I do it's usually not money.

You reminded me of a fight I tried to bet on. Bare with me might be a long story but I'll try and cut it down.
I was in Reno can't remember why. Was walking through a casino and saw the sports booking area and thought "Oh I should see who won the fight between Hughes and Alves". I looked on the board and saw they were still taking bets and thought "wait the fights in london. It should be over by now. I quickly called my brother because back then I didn't have a smart phone and quickly tell him what's going on and to tell me who won.
So I get up there and tell the guy that I want Alves in the fight. I'm thinking HOLY S* I'M GOING TO CLEAN UP! (If I remember correctly Hughes was supposed to win.) As the guy starts to put it in I suddenly hear some guy standing behind me "hey isn't that fight over?" I try to shut him down by tell him no but the jackass says "yeah it's in london that fights over."
Well the guy taking the bet stops to make a call to make sure and all my hopes died. As I was walking away I said to the guy. "Next time keep you
mouth shut dipS*" I wanted to kill that guy!
