How the f*** is he going to KO Floyd in under 4 rounds?
Doubt it will happen either way, but do you realize sparring isn't throwing 100%, and that they wear headgear?
Sparring?
And 16oz gloves....

Conor went in for a fight not sparring.

Do I need to??
You have people saying he didn't go 100% when Conor clearly did.
You have people saying it's only 16 oz gloves, have you ever been hit with 16 oz gloves by someone with bad intentions??
Give you a hint the head gear doesn't really do much, in fact the ones I have explicitly tell me in a warning with bright colours that this piece of equipment does not guarantee my safety and that the manufacturer is not liable.
Not one person in this thread has given any decent counterpoints to the op.
What is your point?? Or don't you have one you just like to nitpick??
BZtown10 -Sad thing is paulie got ko' d with a fucking body shot in his last fight and people here are acting like he's sugar ray Leonard.
The guy who stopped him, Sam Eggington, is an European champion and a fucking animal.
Don't feed the haters. They talk to hear the noise that they make and to smell their nasty fart-like breath.
"Sparring" excuse is hilarious
This was clearly a fight as both men have said - and both were aiming to knock each other out. Headgear or not - Paulie is a retired fighter, been KO'd/TKO'd numerous times in his career, and was fresh off a plane/out of shape.
If Conor's going to KO Floyd he should be able to KO Paulie with headgear and 16 oz gloves - or at least knock him down (no push). He had 72 minutes to do so. And what about body shots which Paulie has been prone to in the past?
Boy these homos are desperate for an angle!
Let's just forget that Paulie mocked Conor as unable to land a glove on him months back.
Let's forget Paulie says he could mop McGregor with ankle weights on and one hand behind his back.
Let's forget Paulie said a media cameraman could out box Conor.
Now you can go ahead and discuss how Conor was able to land many gloves on Paulie and had success with him over more than 12 rounds of boxing.
Old Paulie Two Times.
If the first excuse don't work, he'll come crying on Twitter with another!
And fags like OP slurp it up.
It's clear Conor wasn't treating this like a regular sparring session. It was a real fight. If he couldn't KO Paulie, he won't KO the best defensive boxer of all time.

Okay, sure.
But what if he does exactly as good as everyone else has? What if he wins a few rounds against the UG's GOAT? What if he loses a decision just Canelo, just like De LaHoya, just like Marquez?
It's Mayweather who needs the KO, IMO. If Conor shows he can hang in any way it's a blow for boxing.
