hilarious breakdown of the trashtalking going on at these pressers,



"this would be like the new orleans pelicans talking trash to the golden state warriors"
"this would be the 150th player on the tennis tour trash talking roger federer at wimbledon"
"this would be kent state talking trash to clemson at the 50 yard line before kickoff"
"this would be peter mcneeley talking trash to mike tyson"

"he has no chance to win the fight. he has virtually no chance to even win a round.. conor has submitted with gear, money, gloves, ring.. he has completely sold out for cash here.

(also, cowherd kept saying Conor has lot 3 times in the UFC, but he means MMA. to filthy casuals, UFC = MMA)

The UFC and FOX contract negotiations must not be going well.
 
Colin Cowherd sucks, his ratings are terrible and his hair is mostly concealer.
 
Jesus.

I remember this bloke. Calling Conor - Diaz II the best fight of this generation or some bollocks like that and having Dana on verbally rimming him.

Seems like quite the lick arse.

He didn't say he was 0-3 in the UFC, he said he's lost 3 times in the UFC.
 
People aren't bothered by Conor talking trash because we aren't 5 years old and recognize the "fight" for what it is and are just having fun with it.

He does make good points. Conor is literally chanceless and him saying he will KO Floyd in a boxing match is kind of selling out. I mean, I seriously can't think that he actually believes that himself. The cool thing about Conor normally, is that he talks a lot of trash, but he also backs it up - or at least believe he can back it up. That's cool. However, if yo talk trash, and can't back it up - and are aware of that fact - that's selling out.

Other than that, Cowherd is obviously just a filthy casual. Mentioning Conor's losses for example. A loss in MMA is way less significant than in boxing. His losses came before he was a developed fighter: the only significant loss was to Diaz, in which he went up in weight to compete at. That's not an excuse, but it's a nuance Cowherd forgot to mention. Another nuance that he forgets, when he paints the picture of Conor being an inferior competitors, is that Conor is not a boxer. He's an MMA fighter who would sleep Floyd in the octagon quicker than Floyd can do that to Conor in the ring. Don't get me wrong, Floyd's a better boxer than Conor is an MMA fighter - based on resume and overall skill - but Cowherd is painting a picture completely void of nuances. His knowledge of MMA doesn't amount to more than the reading of a few wiki pages.
 
Cowherd is a known idiot...he constantly tries to bring guests and argue the theme that Lebron has already surpassed Jordan. He's a tool
 
God the media is going to feel like douche canoes if Conor pulls the upset. I know the chances are like winning the lottery but you know what Lloyd Christmas says about chances..
 
Trash talk in combat sports is okay because the loser gets his ass kicked. Compared to other sports where you talk a bunch of shit and the worst outcome is the other dudes put the ball over there more times
 
I just find it funny how people say Mayweather is cocky and arrogant yet McGregor stole Floyd's "Money" character but he's seen as the greatest thing since sliced bread

Reminds me of people criticizing Obama's golf sessions but defending Trump's golf sessions.

Too many double standards.

I can't imagine it happening even if they fought 50 times, but I still can't stop thinking "what if".... It would undoubtedly be the biggest moment in sports history ever. And imagine what it would do to Conor's status!? And imagine the fucking scenes!?!?!?!

It won't happen though.
 
I better not hear this dude speak a word when Conor knocks Floyd's head off on August 26th.

Why the fuck would you compare personalities in a vacuum?

McGregor is funny and likeable; Mayweather boring and retarded.

There is a thin line between the two.

I know. It would be more entertaining for us all in the long run if Conor wins. Imagine his ufc pressers after that.
