Mayweather and Mcgregor, the date is being set! Mcgregor, don't underestimate Mayweather because that guy is a freak of nature. Talented and keeps busy himself but when the fight is there that guy is one of a kind. He is a very popular boxing player tho. He still gives the people goosebumps when he is in the stage
Finally the date has being set,i really think the match is scheduled too soon,August 26 is just two months away and it is going to be a fun ride leading up to the fights as we could hear trash talk from Conor McGregor and Mayweather and it is going to be fun and i think it would be more entertaining than the fight. 
I will bet on McGregor in this match, MMA is different from Boxing it is brutal, If odds is 7:1 then it is better to bet on McGregor. Last time i saw the news about how MCGregor practice is very different very intensive and i think he is very prepared in this match, Unlike on mayweather he's taking it lightly because he is thinking that he is unbeatable in the boxing ring.
I don't think the Mayweather is taking him lightly. Mayweather is a freak of nature, naturally talented and he keeps himself busy all year so for me he is always ready to fight. But I agree with you that betting on McGregor with such odds are really good specially if he pulls an upset on Mayweather. Its gonna be a wind fall for us. I will be also betting for McGregor with at least .0075 - .01BTC.
It's going to be a very interesting fight,indeed. A MMA lightweight champion meets the boxing champion. Obviously Mayweather has much more experience in the boxing world than Connor which is a big advantage from him,but the contender comes from a very though;brutal fighting medium which is the MMA/UFC.
We should expect a very aggressive McGregor and as always a defensive Mayweather which will try to use his experience and skills and boxing to win by points. I don't see Connor getting a KO from Floyd. I would go on Mcgregor's win.(and it has pretty nice odds as well)

As predicted months ago... this fight was meant to happen. I knew it was going to be 2017, but september, not this soon (August 26th)
The news and stuff still says the fight is taking place in August ? I'm stoked!This will be the biggest fight ever in terms of numbers.
Yes,the number of punches McGregor is going to land on Mayweather 's face is going to break all the records.Will Mayweather win as expected?
He would win a lot of money regardless.But the real fight champ will always be Mcregor.

This will be the biggest fight ever in terms of numbers. Expect insane gambling to happen that night.
Will Mayweather win as expected? Will McGregor pull the biggest upset ever and make a lot of people rich in case you bet for a McGregor win? Let's find out. My money is on Mayweather as usual. It worked 49 times, it should work again. Anything can happen in the sport of boxing tho, which is what makes this fight interesting, to see if McGregor lucks out and uses his power to KO him. I think his possibilities for an upset will get increasingly harder the longer the fight goes on. Mayweather typically tests the opponent for some rounds then proceeds to perform surgery on him, so McGregor needs to find a way o stop the fight quick.

I'll go for Connor on this one! The odds will surely be huge in favor of Mayweather and Connor will be a real underdog here. But it is a really big chance to profit here. I do believe that Connor will knock that guy out and he'll be humbled! Chickenweather will just run around the ring again.

If you look at the stats and experience then most of us will bet on Mayweather but if you've seen McGregor fighting and the odds on the gambling sites, it's worth to take bet on McGregor.
Mayweather is too smart to win or to get KO. We have seen his tactics against Paquio in the last match.

Guess who backed Pacquiao the last time around? Can't remember the odds and just couldn't resist. I know I'm probably going to bite down on this one but I see almost 7/1 odds for McGregor and that's too good to pass up, right? Marathon Bet's got that (and Betfair has a 1/6 on Mayweather...).
Mayweather has a great advantage to McGregor in terms of punching and dodging skills. Mayweather is a genius in boxing even though his way of fighting is dodging and counter punching. Boxing is far different to MMA, even though McGregor is stronger in physical strength to Mayweather but still he didn't a good boxing skills. So my bet will goes to Maywether and this will be an easy win.

The odds are stacked up against Conor McGregor in this match. I can’t imagine how he’d stand a chance against Mayweather, where 49 legit boxers have failed and can’t even figure out how to solve the Mayweather puzzle. This would be more of a circus and the hype this fight is going to generate is what’s going to make it exciting, not the actual fight itself. This might not even go the distance as Conor isn’t used to fighting longer than 25 minutes.
Conor has:
-Height advantage
-Reach advantage
-Age advantage
-Power advantage (allegedly, for we don't know how strong his punches will be on boxing gloves)
That's about it. He has to use his advantages and try to KO him in the first rounds. If it goes beyond round 5... things will become increasingly impossible for Conor.
Mayweather will keep distance for the first round, then jab him into desperation and get the most points. If he gets caught in a bad angle, Mayweather can KO him too. When you catch someone in a bad angle doing the wrong movement, you don't need tremendous power to KO. Mayweather used to have it all when he was young, KO power too, not anymore, but again, he still can punch with enough power to KO someone if he's caught in the wrong moment
Conor is probably an Olympian level boxer at best, so he will make a lot of mistakes.
I haven't seen or watched any Conor Mcgregor's fights but I guess he really has a potential to beat mayweather, I am a boxing fan at the same time an MMA fan but since I am not a fan of mayweather I would rather choose Mcgregor to bet on over him we all know that mayweather has more experience than mcgregor when it comes to boxing but I think an MMA fighter has much strength and power punches .
Really strange,you are a MMA fan and yet you never watched any of Mcgregor's matches as he was the hot shot and an active fighter in MMA and still never watched any matches,what matches you watch then. we all know that mayweather has more experience than mcgregor when it comes to boxing but I think an MMA fighter has much strength and power punches .
as he was involved in some of the most anticipated matches in MMA history.
Finally we're given a go for this to happen. Looking forward to this fight and as much as i'm a connor fan, floyd's probably got this already. I'm not doubting connor's skills and ability ashe's proven quite a lot already in the ufc, but boxing is mayweather's turf. I don't think we'll be seeing a stain on floyd's u blemished record yet
Is it using boxing rules ? If yes Mayweather can be just use running strategy like when he fight against manny. I bet McGregor will taunt so much on the ring.
Read first before posting. bbc.report already shared the part of the story and if you still missed it i'll quote it for you.The odds are so low and pretty one sided though I hope there's over/under rounds for this that would be the only valuable line to go for at this point.
Unbeaten boxer Floyd Mayweather will fight UFC lightweight champion Conor McGregor in a much-discussed boxing match on Aug. 26 in Las Vegas, a well-placed source told Yahoo Sports on Wednesday.
Mayweather and McGregor both confirmed the fight on social media on Wednesday.
According to UFC president Dana White, the fight will be at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas and will be contested at 154 pounds. It will be a standard, 12-round boxing match with 10-ounce gloves. The Nevada Athletic Commission on Wednesday approved the request from Mayweather Promotions to put on a boxing card on Aug. 26 at the MGM Grand. The venue could change, however, to T-Mobile.
The bout will be distributed via Showtime pay-per-view. It will be an entirely boxing card. Mayweather Promotions will be the lead promoter.

Opening odds:
Floyd Mayweather Jr: -1100
Conor McGregor: +700
Its amazing what Conor has achieved in the short time he's been in the UFC.
I don't mind it when Oscar De La Hoya calls Conor the MMA pound for pound #1 king, GOAT.

As an MMA fan I am betting for Conor.

For real the odds for McGregor is so that big +700. I think McGregor still have a chance to win, but yeah it's about money on this match. The biggest match in the history $$. Is it using boxing rules ? If yes Mayweather can be just use running strategy like when he fight against manny. I bet McGregor will taunt so much on the ring.
If Money Mayweather will not change his boxing style and this fight will be using boxing rules then I'll put my money with Mayweather. This guy can run around the ring all 12 rounds without being hit and I can see McGregor getting pissed with Mayweather and lose his focus. Boxing and MMA are entirely different with each other. It's like watching a fight between a tae kwondo practitioner and an aikido practitioner, one will just wait for the attack or commit mistake.
So this really happening now, i guess gambling industry will be alive and healthy when this fight started its a great gamble for mcconnor as doesnt have any strategy in regards to this game he only have all the guts and playing or betting with is really a big risk but if got lucky earnings would be much appreciated. Good luck
This is clearly for the money. How can you expect an MMA fighter (even of McGregor's caliber) to match up against the boxing skills of Money Mayweather who has been boxing for the most part of his life, and who has never been defeated ever? Although I hate how Floyd fights, he would clearly outbox, outsmart, and outmatch Conor in this one. This would no doubt be bigger than the Mayweather-Pacquiao fight and would definitely break new records in terms of ticket sales, PPVs, and betting. Way to make both fighters richer.
Opening odds:
Floyd Mayweather Jr: -1100
Conor McGregor: +700
Floyd Mayweather Jr: -1100
Conor McGregor: +700
Nitrogen pays slightly more. I guess it would be a good time to start watching the lines of this match and see if we can get some discount from the opening then? I'm not betting on Conor unless it's something close to 10.00. And maybe some McGregor to KO Mayweather prop would be good to gamble in too.
