I agree. It’ll be interesting to see how pacquiaos swarmer style match with mcgregor’s hard hits tho. But I feel like Mcgregor’s gonna feel like he’s fighting 15 different people when he’s in that ring cause of how fast Pacman is
Rogan contradicts himself. Rogan says it was only close because Floyd wanted to gas out McGregor. Then goes on to say how dangerous McGregor is early and how Floyd knew that, so essentially saying Floyd had to play it slow because McGregor is dangerous. Therefor the fight was close Because McGregor is dangerous not because Floyd let it be close.
@bobwatters Honestly watch the fight. Floyd couldnt find Mcgregor even when he tried. Mcgregors defence was great. Only when Mcgregor started to get tired is when floyd started to land on mcgregor.
@@mikegoodwin5951 You are stupid. mcgregory can be dangerous and id still fk him up. But people paid to see a good fight so i let him show the crowd what he had learned. I carried him until he gassed and then finished him off with basic boxing skills. Mcgregor is no boxer and the fight was not close. It went as far as i wanted it to go. you boxing casuals pls just stfu. I don't claim to know ufc, I know mcgregor would destroy me in the octagon why can't you clowns show me the same respect and admit he can't box for shit.
I love how joe doesn’t belittle him for sounding like a newbie. Most people are just waiting to spit out “YOU CASUAL!!!!” never hurts teaching somebody a thing or 2 lmao
@@jesuspenaloza9437 about boxing he knows enough to hold a conversation, but He’s not up to date sometimes with what’s going on in the sport. In MMA he definitely knows what he’s talking about lol
@@ppvplug3940 when I say he doesn’t know much I don’t mean with boxing news. I mean with what’s going on in the ring, I guess kind of like an analyst. Joe doesn’t really get the nuance of boxing and there’s nothing wrong with that. He’s clearly a fan and has seen a ton of fights
He has like zero wall room now unfortunately that's the worse pay I actually don't mind the new studio, hate red but hey not my shitx I'd go darker shade of a lime green, those black grates eith the light make it so he cant have the same versatility like the old man cave studio, he went from Android/Galaxy to iPhone in terms of style and even platform
I 98% agree, but I think Conor has a better chance knocking out Pac Man than he did with Floyd. Manny is a man, and will want a fight, giving Conor a small chance of catching a lucky blow. Floyd has mastered intelligent running. Lol
@@Cuzzzo don't you think pac-man wouldn't drag him in the deep water first before knocking the life out of him. Giving hope Mcgregor in boxing is all good and fine, but starting with the Best guys in the sport will NEVER end well for him
@johnperry91 Manny KO’s him in three rounds tops. You think those MMA strikers equal Manny boxing IQ movement, speed and power you gotta be kidding! Conor’s big hand is his left, Manny’s main weak spot is a guy with a right from a masterful counter puncher who was withstanding more Pacman punches than Conor ever could at that moment in time. Conor will be a worse KO than Ricky Hatton.
Oh the delusional Khabib fans are here 😂😂. It's a boxing match something Ronda would kill Khabib in. As for Manny Vs McGregor it's a win for Manny unless Manny is injured or something
Philippines has a bunch of good MMA fighters too Eduard Folayang, Joshua Pacio, Geje Estaquio, Danny Kingad, Brandon Vera, the list goes on. Pacquiao truly inspired a generation of combat athletes.
Yeah the video started talking about Manny for 30 seconds then Conor vs Manny for 30 seconds, then it was Floyd vs Conor for the remainder of the video. They should probably change the title.
As it should.. just mentioning the fight is a disgrace and disrespectful to all boxers and real boxing fans. Nothing but a money grab. Now if they fought in the octagon while using only striking this would make more sense.
@@dannyduds1058 That would make zero sense. That would be mostly a boxing match in the octagon. It would be more of a joke than the two of them boxing in the ring.
@@Shamyrl i beg to differ. Manny Pacquiao is worlds better at boxing than Mcgregor. Mcgregor much less 98% of other mma fighters would be nothing but foder to Pacman in a serious boxing match. They just dont have the hand speed or conditioning to be able to box for 12 rounds. Not to mention the ring IQ that takes years and years to achieve. To even think Mcgregor has a chance against one of the top boxers in the world is disrespectful. I know conor fanboys will say "oh but he went 10 rounds with floyd!"... please stop it. Both conor and floyd are businessman first, they made 100s of millions of dollars from a scripted match. The only way i see a fight being somewhat fair and competitive between a world class mma fighter and world class boxer is if it had mixed rules.
@Moeshaak Shakur I’ve watched the fight like 4 times and mayweather got hit more... but for some reason the judges were blind... also the fact that manny was the aggressor should’ve helped... I mean if multiple HOF like Evander Holyfield andMike Tyson (granted Mike doesn’t like Floyd) and FHOF saying manny should’ve won, I think theirs an argument there
@Moeshaak Shakur it was controversial for many people. Pac landed more significant punches. Also he was the aggressor and had more ring control. Isn't that enough?
It really sucks that we are going to lose these clip videos after it goes exclusively to Spotify. I hope they continue to make these highlight on that platform.
This Tony dude doesn't know what he is talking about. Everyone that watches boxing and watched Mayweather knows that if Mayweather wanted, he wouldn't have gotten punched one time in that match. He let McGregor tire himself out to put a show for the crowd and then finished him easily. He could've finished that match in 20 ways.
Yea Floyd was straight up just walking forward with a high guard Floyd's game has so many more layers he probably wanted to entertain so a potential rematch could take place and he could cash out again
You couldn’t be more correct and THATS WHY JOE IS THE MAN lmao because his reaction to this guy ASKING why joe said it’s bonkers is so priceless!!!THATS AN ACCURATE FUCKING RESPONSE from someone that doesn’t only know MMA but he has a great understanding of boxers and their talent in their field alone as well as the sport itself!Lmao that’s my exact reaction as well it’s almost humorous and to be honest if manny doesn’t try to go the mayweather route which I don’t believe he will he would actually embarrass mcgregor for the first time in conors life..NOT BEAT HIM BUT EMBARRASS HIM!There are pros that have done boxing most of their lives if not most of their adult lives and went their whole career without a LOSS having great fights and great records without a loss then fought Pac-Man and though fought valiantly got beat the fuck up! (IM TALKIN TO YOU KEITH ONE TIME!!) lol this guy almost annoys me that he speaks about the sport and says “Meh and I wanted to watch some boxing it popped up and I clicked on it..I do not remember..I mean I remember conor SHOCKING ME WITH HOW GOOD HE DID” like dude!!You don’t even understand fully how ignorant to the sport you are to US Real knowledgable boxing fans by even saying that 🤦🏻 and then BOSS Knowledgeable Rogan replies “🤦🏻 lemme explain somethin *CLEARS THROAT* the reason why it was “close” it because mayweather let him blow his waaad” lmaoooo hes too accurate in response to this gentleman who has extremely limited knowledge on the subject it would be humorous if it wasn’t so cringey as a boxing fan to hear the other guy talk about boxing and conor lmaooo 🤦🏻♂️
@@triplecisthegoat7000 ask yourself this too besides that fight wen have you ever seen MONEY may use that game plan of walking forward with a high guard???WEN???Ill wait..........😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣 he felt no threat level in that realm
@@angelogonzalez8161 the funniest part of the fight is when Conor tried to get an angle and did this exaggerated movement Floyd just slightly turned and popped him 😂
Mayweather didn't even bother being "defensive" against Conor. Floyd would never do something that stupid against Manny. Manny's last fight was against a stud. Thurman's one of the best right now. The only reason I'm even entertaining this match is because Manny will donate a huge chunk of his bag to a bunch of poor people, again.
Floyd partied every night the week of the fight and never got out of first gear and conor went as hard as possible. People really believe conor did something
@@jesuspenaloza9437 lol word.. Floyd didnt even use his mouth to breathe that entire fight.. Floyd didnt bother using any defensive twitch for reflex.. I like Connor but he really lacks stamina for a boxing match
@@darthclone7 he lacks skill too. He’s one of the best mma and a shitty boxer, but that proves how different the sports are. He had a 25 lb weight advantage against an old man that was retired for 2 years and his punches never made floyd blink. It goes to show you how different the power is in boxing compared to mma
@bobwatters I ducking despise you casuals who never watched or understood boxing but y'all come up with these same sayings...you sound like the typical Floyd hater, at least be original. You fucks never seen pretty boy Floyd when he was knocking Mfs out...Y'all never seen when he was beating the shit outta fighters like Gatti, Corrales, Hatton...even the old mayweather beat the shit outta arguably one of the greatest of all time in canelo... You casuals make me sick to my stomach. Y'all can form your own opinions so you parakeet what other people say.
Can we all just acknowledge that Pacman-Mayweather was almost 10 years too late. If it happened when it should have, aka 2008/9, Pacquiao would have KO'd Mayweather. That hunger, speed and drive. Unmatched. Mayweather played it smart, waiting several years then put on a clinic as we all know- attacking fighters lose more than defensive fighters over the years.
It might been worse for Pacquiao back then to be honest. Younger Floyd was a lot more aggressive and that would open Pacquiao up to even more counter punches. It would’ve gave Pacquiao more chances to land his power punches and maybe get a knockout but I think Floyd is too big, strong and long for Pacquiao. His chin is very underrated as well.
I remember they were supposed to fight in March 2010. It was written at boxrec too. Then Floyd senior start to request blood test and the agreement fell off.
at the end. manny n floyd both won something together, 8 division and undefeated. its like a disney story. imagine how it look if manny did beat floyd 10 years ago. manny retiring w/ 8 division n floyd retiring with 49 - 1
@@Ryan-ix6dt in MMA he's a big fish in a comparatively small pond but in the world of boxing it's the other way around Aslong as he keeps up the boxing training he could realistically keep rising in MMA while putting on the big boxing events every now and then
Floyd asked for a catch weight fight with rehydration clause for a reason. did the same to Canelo and Canelo would have lost to Kovalev. But Canelo got a rehydration clause on Kovalev. we all saw Kovalev get KOed by Canelo, the rehydration clause was a big part of it. Manny will make a huge mistake and not ask for one Connor will KO him.
@mike * Floyd had manny not take the Shoulder injection because he knew it would affect the fight, he also did catch weight to others because he knew it affects the fight. It’s a fight anything can happen my money is on Connor
I'm glad to hear Joe talking about Maidana. What he did was amazing and my country always had great box legends. Greetings from Argentina, i'm big fan of your podcast
I was listening to ESPN the morning of the mayweather fight and the commentator said “Mayweather is going to play with him and make it look competitive for about 8 rounds and then finish Conor. He isn’t going to let it look like a money grab freak show because of the lawsuits from the Paq fight that insinuated it was fixed.” And that’s exactly what happened.
I feel like Manny is a dangerous matchup for Connor maybe even more than Mayweather. You know May will calculate and give you time but Manny will connect more on bad habits. And for a partime boxer it might be a early Knockout. If I'm Connor's agent I'll target some other fighter for a pay out.
“CONJUNCTION JUNCTION WHATS YOUR FUNCTION?” Lololol man I haven’t heard that song in years. When the teachers used to wheel the tv out you already knew what time it was hahaha
@Matt Royce He was a fan of boxing back in the day so historically he knows a lot about boxing but he never really trained boxing so he can't really explain it that well from a technical pov. He barely pays attention to boxing nowadays too
He played professional basketball for a while here in the Philippines. He wasn't that good, but since he's Manny Pacquiao, they kept passing the ball to him.
Joe is quite good himself apparently, used to be obsessed with it in the 90s and 2000s. Not much to do on the road besides drink and hustle. I’m sure hes a fan of the game and knows the greats.
I love how Joe just acknowledges the fact that manny vs Conor would be a waste of time. he knows deep down like everyone else that it’s just a money fight and that Conor wouldn’t stand a chance.
Pacman would just be moving around the ring with a big smile on his face, while simultaneously rearranging McGregor's facial bone structure, like he did with Margarito.
@@notlookinforahug Margarito is bigger than Conor and a legit boxer. Look up that fight and you'll see what will happen(it's a great fight btw). Conor did good against a defensive boxer, but Manny is an offensive beast. I don't think it's a smart fight for Conor. He will just get beat up by a much smaller guy.
Mayweather only fought well known boxers when they were basically past their prime. Mayweather said he didn't want to fight Pacquiao in his prime because he was scared he'd lose
That's the biggest cap😂🤣🤣 mamny pacquiao is the one who fought boxers outside their prime and manny pacquiao was the one who ducked Floyd by refusing the drug test because he was on steroids
This...so many of these Mcgregor fans hype the heck out of that fight, like brah...it wasn’t even close haha. There was one punch McGregor threw that tapped Floyd’s face and Floyd didn’t flinch haha
Mayweather was 2 years out, only had 1 stoppage in his last 12 fights (hand problems) and 40 years old vs Mc. The only thing that favoured Conor was weight (Floyd only fought once at 154) and also that he doesn't go for the KO. Pac on the other hand is a lot smaller but his punches actually have pop and he will put angle Conor and beat him up. Pac has nice stamina even at his age right now...
The early rounds with real speed is where you have your best chance with Floyd. The ricky hatton fight was interesting in that regard and should have been a lot more interesting. The ref broke up any early round close combat so it kind of killed that fight. By the Mid rounds Flloyd then controlled cause the speed has diminished by that time.
Are you basically saying boxing on its own would not work in a fight unless it's under boxing rules making boxing by itself useless without being under its own rule set which is something everyone's afraid to admit
@@theredninja2817 that’s bullshit mate, if a pro boxer hits u in a real fight with a good punch ur going to sleep. Ur basically saying Mike Tyson would be useless in a real fight
The fact that Mayweather fought with McGregor speaks volumes to how little he respected him cuz if there's any chance you can beat Floyd he's just going to box you up slap you around for 12 rounds and beat on points. He hadn't knocked someone out since the Victor Ortiz fight and he sucker punched him
In terms of the GOAt talk, I dont know everyone Mayweather's fought, but eras where fighters fought the best like leonard / hearns / hagler / duran or Ali / Frazier / Foreman make me appreciate them more
In the second Maidana fight he simply got a ref who wouldn’t let Maidana fight on the inside. My favorite Mayweather fight is versus Corrales. His defense AND offense were on another level. Then he became satisfied with winning on points.
No in the first fight Mayweather chose to fight on the inside. He said I was staying in the pocket agains a guy much bigger than me and instead of appreciating it people tried to say I lost. So I’ll just box him the entire time the 2nd go round. He could’ve done that the first fight if he wanted.
Well said at the end, Holyfield was landing headbutts and flying low knees, he did it so well I only realised a year ago when I saw a RU-vid video on it.
Mayweather also bet on himself to win in the 10th round. That is exactly what he did. He was in complete control of this fight the entire time. If mayweather wanted to end the fight in the 3rd he could have done so.
@@Apophis392 what was fun, interesting, or cool about the floyd fight then? It went exactly how any knowledgable person knew it would. It was a farce of a fight, put on to make those involved, filthy rich. That's not opinion, that's fact. And, a manny fight would be twice as farcicle, given how the floyd fight went. There's zero challenge, it's simply a get-rich scheme.
@@zzz7zzz9 it was fun experiencing the “press conference” verbal face offs leading up to the fight, it was interesting to watch how an MMA guy who never fought a professional boxing match in his life legitimately tryed to contend with an undefeated defensive master, and it was cool to see Conor do as good as he did and land some strikes Floyd had to drag him out into deep water just like he was any other boxer Floyd has fought.
McGregor had way longer arms. And mayweather literally said he didn't start training for the fight until a week before the fight. He knew McGregor didn't stand a chance
Lol sure. Although I do think Conor did okay, Mayweather carried him and knew exactly what he was doing but you really gonna believe that bullshit from Floyd Mayweather lmao.
So did Zab Judah and Maidana only had him hurt in the second fight at the end of a round with a counter overhand right I believe as Floyd was throwing his own right hand and Floyd took it very well, Joe is a casual boxing fan clearly way more interested in mma.
@@dustinwilliams7542 yeah it was close he was landing lots of body shots, but Floyd won the rematch easier, not sure if castillo had him hurt or not I don't think he did, obviously what I mean by hurt is to land a big punch and be on the verge knocking him out.
When Mosley hit Floyd it showed what could have been had Floyd fought Mosley 5 yrs sooner instead of playing it safe & fighting at 40 when he was nothing more than a name with drawing power.
@@garethrevell5873 everyone acts like Mayweather doesnt age too. As if his opponents get older but he doesnt. "Oh he waited years to fight so and so!" As if he thought "in 5 years ill still be young, theyll be older." Shits stupid
The Mosley fight is the fight which cemented Mayweather as the best. I needed to see how he would react if and when he got hurt because it had never really happened before. He got hurt, rocked and literally in the next round put it on Moseley and didn't let up. He went on the offensive. Mosleys trainer said it best, he knew. He said "My impression of the fight … Shane’s going to come out and hit Floyd in the mouth and Floyd is going to sprout a tail, grow wings, draw fangs and claws and turn into a dragon in the ring… and start spitting fireballs"
@@garethrevell5873 he took a shot that he avoided since 2004 when he 1st moved to 140. If taking it like a man means the same thing as "being a man" mean waiting 6 yrs for a fighter that depends on his hand speed to turn 40 to fight him that isn't very manly. Other than the De La Hoya fight what bigger fight did Mosley have? Corley, Brussels, Mitchell, Gatti Judah, Baldomir, Hatton in Vegas, 36 yr old 135 champ Marquez @ 147. None of those fights made more money than Mosley but a mid-30's Mosley was more dangerous to 50-0* than future hall of famer Sugar Shane Mosley who at 40 had just 1 big punch left but at 35 had many more for that ass.
@@jamestodd51 yep I'm sure Paquiao is older than Floyd as well and the said the same kind of thing on that whole situation lol my friend tried to tell me he thought Paquiao won that fight, I just laughed and said 'no mate'.
When did mcgregor do good against mayweather 😕? And mayweather as much as I hate him is a technical fighter not your average knock out machine so mcgregor going round (whatever round he went to) Isn't impressive. People need to stop talking about things they don't know shit about
