Rogan criticizes LionFight for matching up MMA fighter w/ 0 pro Muay Thai fights against MT Champion

[YellowBaneno]

Anyone who thinks this is a fucking idiot. It has no chance to beat MAnny vs Floyd. AT the end of the day its still just a freak show mis match and not a legit fight. Manny was the #2 P4P boxer and was given a legit chance (for some reason) of winning. No one gives Conor a real chance of winning. People who say he can win are usually just trolling. It probably does Canelo vs Floyd numbers

Do you seriously think legitimacy determine the success of event ? lol

PPV number is almost entirely depend on casuals and casuals go with how popular the fighters are.

As far as I know Casuals think Conor has a chance hence they will tune into it.

But, he had absolutely no problem with the James Toney vs Randy Couture fight...

dunno, go ask rogan

 

[RichardN7]

He thinks Mayweather vs McGregor is OK, though

Which is the fight in question? Anyone got a link? Curious to see how it went...

Hatton was also a legit top Boxer. Conor is a good MMA boxer and a bum in the Boxing world. Hell i would take NAte over him in a Boxing match

Also even if Conor was a legit top Boxer (he isn't) his style is not one that would give Floyd problems. To beat Floyd you need to have a great jab (Conor doesn't) and be a great in fighter (Conor is not). You need to make the fight gritty and take Floyd in the corners.

And LOL if you think Conor is a sniper in the Boxing world

being a boxer doesnt make you a striking god.... yes floyd is a massive favourite over Conor, yes Conor is not a boxer. But he is a world class striker. Distance control is the same, timing is the same. he understands how to set up his strikes, he understands how to keep himself safe. he is not a novice. If you cant see the fucking difference between Conor and some random mma fighter then you sir are a fucking moron

I didn't even know a kick like that was possible.

I kind of agree with Rogan. I think Conor would get lit up, but it wouldn't be nearly as brutal.

Agreed
