Sugar Ray Leonard does Conor impersonation

i used to do that in elementary school to make people laugh

Conor took it to another level. He makes people laugh and makes a bank out of it.

Destruction and Destroy
 


Watch the interview, Halger mentions it briefly, then moves on,...you can tell its not something he likes to talk about to this day.

c'mon. timestamp a 7 minute video.

leonard himself says the opposite. you're using a snippet from an interview 25 years after the fact as a reason to say he pushed leonard for rematch and leonard wanted none of it and it was shady?
 
True, Conor would do better against Floyd, but having Floyd fight Conor in MMA isn't the equivalent of Conor fighting Floyd in Boxing. Conor was a much bigger young Prime MMA champion in his 20s and Floyd was a former champion in his 40s coming out of retirement.

The equivalent would be for an older former MMA champion in his 40s to come out of retirement to fight and bigger young prime champion boxer in his 20s. That is what Floyd did to Conor.
c'mon. floyd was an undefeated champion who was beating top boxers at 38 (2 years earlier) and stayed in great shape. how do you think canelo would do against gsp in mma? and floyd was much more active than gsp has been.

GSP would dominate Canelo. Even much moreso than Conor would Floyd because GSP has very dominant offensive grappling and fights smart/safe. GSP would take Canelo down immediately where as Conor is a striker and would probably stand with a Boxer using kicks at range. So with a striker like Conor, a Boxer has a better chance in MMA.

But with that said, GSP vs Canelo still is not a good equivalent because GSP is bigger than Canelo both in height and weight just like Connor was for Floyd. GSP also isn't in his 40s either, he is currently 38 today. So the last fight we saw GSP against Bisping, GSP was 36 years old and Michael Bisping himself is 2 years older than GSP.
 
Conor did better then Floyd would have in MMA
Lol, unfortunately we will never get to see a 27 year old Floyd compete against a 40 year old MMA fighter he has 3" and 20 pounds on but I kind of doubt it since Floyd is a master of movement and range as well as one of the greatest athletes of our generation.

Combine that with his work ethic, fight IQ and the speed and power he had at 27 with a year of MMA training to figure out the body language and position leading up to TD attempts and kicks and I like his odds personally.
 
Sugar Ray is an all time great...

But he was a round stealing hack the night the Judges stole the fight from Marvelous Marvin... The greatest of all time.

27 year old Floyd would eat a single leg kick and realize he fucked up. The distance is completely different and by the time he adjusted ankle pick.
