Maybe Floyd will bet his entire net worth against himself, right before the fight.. then take a dive, and become a trillionaire. 

I didn't see Ward / Kovalev 2 but I was shocked when I saw the round by round end @ like round 6 with a stoppage..

wtf?

conor sparring match... was that a joke or was he trying to connect, his arm look its made of rubber and it was slow motion......

boxers shouldn't be allowed to do mma cuz they could kill someone with that thin glove....

pro boxers usually get taken down & submitted in MMA.

i imagine people put shit music on videos to avoid being automatically flagged.

Why? Because MOST MMA guys realize how LETHAL a boxer is comparatively. They know the best option is gnp or submission.

yup

that's why it's funny even contemplating the idea of an elite MMA fighter trying to stand with an elite boxer.. they wouldn't even do it in the octagon if it was an MMA fight.. hah.

The only discussion should be about how this shouldn't be a discussion... lmao. *watches Coges get triggered to play devil's advocate*

Damitt! Here we go again lol.

Man I know Mayweather's going to win and do it easily. It's just disappointing if there'll be no contest. I hope McGregor at least puts up something decent.

I do think though if anyone's going to cross over CM is a pretty good choice.

Maybe Nate Diaz would be a better choice, since he outboxed CM & basically KO'd him in their first fight ... 

Honestly though, Nate & Nick Diaz would probably fare better against most boxers than CM even though they are way slower, IMHO.. Nick Diaz for example, is more of a pure boxer with superb condition & a granite chin, he actually has one pro boxing win also (1-0).

As slick as CM is in the Octagon, in boxing, if you can't get a guy out early with that slickness & you're known for fading, a good boxer will suck you into the middle/later rounds and when you're drowning, will try and destroy you. CM fits that mold IMHO.. Very impressive, fast, slick in the first few rounds - but when he faced Nate Diaz who is a slow, non stop, granite chin boxer, he got worn down in literally one round. By the second round he was getting caught easy, which resulted in him getting rocked & choked out.

I'd expect the Nate/Nick prototype to do better than most MMA fighters in pro boxing.. Not at all against elites, but against lesser opposition. Good technique (great jabs, throw punches while defending simultaneously, good movement), granite chins, superb conditioning, can withstand tons of punishment, and just keep coming.. They'd be the kind of guys you'd put up & comer boxers up against early on, to give the fans an exciting fight.

pC!

These movie channels play lots of CIA/FBI-ish movies.

Rewatched "Breach". Great movie. Based on a true story about an FBI agent who spied for Russia for 22 years.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0401997/

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Hanssen

He is currently serving 15 consecutive life sentences at ADX Florence, a federal supermax prison near Florence, Colorado.

.. He was charged with selling U.S. secrets to the Soviet Union and subsequently the Russian Federation for more than US$1.4 million in cash and diamonds over a 22-year period

Three years later, Hanssen transferred to the FBI's Soviet analytical unit, which was responsible for studying, identifying, and capturing Soviet spies and intelligence operatives in the United States.

Hanssen was recalled yet again to Washington in 1987. He was given the task of making a study of all known and rumored penetrations of the FBI in order to find the man who had betrayed Martynov and Motorin; this meant that he was looking for himself.

In 1990, Hanssen's brother-in-law, Mark Wauck, who was also an FBI employee, recommended to the Bureau that Hanssen be investigated for espionage;

Despite having shown his face, disclosed his code name, and revealed his FBI affiliation, Hanssen escaped arrest when the Bureau's investigation into the incident did not advance

that wiki is nuts.

MJ got so many calls back in his day, it was un fuckin real..... you think it's bad now.... go look at some of the old clips.....

Even Magic joked during a dream team photo shoot with MJ and Bird "You can't touch Michael [while about to put his hands on mike's shoulders] or its going to be a foul" lolol

this is just one clip i can find:

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yUFqnu0tHtE" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yUFqnu0tHtE</a>

theres more if u watch some of the old games in full .... but yeah MJ go the most superstar treatment of any player in sports imo.....

As much as I remember Jordan being great, best player in the clutch i've ever seen, I also remember him getting EVERY call. You couldn't blow on him or they'd call a foul. If anyone thinks Kobe got the most calls, i'm pretty sure they didn't watch Jordan in his prime.

On the flipside.. Lebron gets the least amount of calls i've seen for an elite player.

That's one thing people never factor into the Jordan / Lebron equation. I'd love to see the free throw statistics for both of them, especially in the playoffs/finals.

The Leftovers

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2699128/

Pretty much the most seemingly useless series i've ever watched, but actually one of the best. The directing & acting are absolutely superb. Watching this series unfold, you have no idea what's going to happen. In fact, you're always waiting (or wishing) for something to happen, just like the people in the show.



IMHO, their Season 2 intro is superb too:
