Floyd is clearly from the future. I concede.

Oh man this is going to be a **** kicking.

Haters,

A couple notes about that fight.

#1: bj should get huge props for getting in a UFC cage and fighting as a cancer survivor still going through chemotherapy.

#2: I'm sure bj would have prepared differently and won the fight if he knew this bitch was gonna use all kinds of BS spinning ****!

Ugh that was sad. First minute or so it looked like it might be competitive for a while, but wow did that get sad fast. Kinda surprised it wasn't a lights out headkick ko. Glad big John stopped it when he did, he could have let bj get punched in the head a bunch more times.

Edit: Cormier commentary on this hilarious. "Great grappling using punches to move into mount position but..." as dude taps to choke from bottom!

El D,

Do you believe BJs performances post USADA prove he was a cheater?

Cody & TJ will be coaches of TUF 25. Glad they are fighting but annoying we will have to wait like 8 months for it.

What a sad fight. Think BJ needs to fight someone like Rockhold to get fully motivated.

Huh? That's definitely him. Third row from the bottom, all the way to the right.

Sad that he has to sit in normal sits.

DWarbucks,

Fair points, but I'm afraid Floyd is ultimately no match for Conor's overall instagram prowess. Numbers be damned, Conor is clearly a sigma 3 fashionista while Floyd is still fumbling for the lights.

this dude looks like the ****ing black hamburgler

lol wtf are those outfits

That's either Goldie or someone who's virtually identical.

I recorded it and so fast forwarded through everything but the fights, is that real or Photoshop?

Connor couldn't touch him anyway. No way connor is fast enough or skilled enough with his hands to do so.

This would be a humiliating defeat for MMA fighters everywhere that would reverberate through sports history as the moment the best boxer completely outclassed the "best mma striker". It would be awful for the sport's long term health.

Also Connor would get KO'd. You don't just write that off. He'll probably take multiple knockdowns before ending facedown. He will NEVER live that down ever

This isn't a great MMA boxer vs. a worse mma boxer, where either guy can win. This isn't a fight that should even be sanctioned. Connor has zero boxing experience and he's fighting arguably the greatest boxer ever

Testify

(Except about Floyd being arguably the greatest boxer ever. C'mon with that ****).

Incorrect, he's cheated aging until he gracefully decided to pass the torch last night. 100% class.

Did Penn even have a path to victory? Even if he luckboxes a takedown, I doubt he's really doing much on the ground. Conor might have a better shot vs. Floyd!

Charles Rosa was able to take him down a bunch and pass his guard a few times and got in some good positions so BJ should have had a possible path to victory with grappling.
