Tomorrow we’re going to have a gathering at my brothers house for the Conor McGregor fight. I stocked up on a couple cigars which I’ll share, a few pipe tobacco , the one in the bag is Edgeworth ready rubbed match and I have a Drexel and five brothers. Got a couple of pipes, and I think I’m good to go. Will pick up beer on the way Who’s watching the fight? imgur.com/a/oqiZYc6

Nice spread, looks like your ready fer the fight. Ill probably hafta watch the fight aughta be a good one. Who you rooting for? I'm all for the russian, usually like to see a challenger do well. Plus seeing McGregor lose would take some of that pep out of his step.

I'm not big into ufc but I'd watch the fight if it wasn't pay per view and if it wasn't on at stupid o'clock.
Hopefully I'll get it on YouTube the next day.

I am not a Fight fan. Ali was the last one I followed.
That said, Conor is a real wildman. Should be interesting.

The last time I saw a much anticipated fight was in California at a home dominated by a bunch of transplanted construction workers from Connecticut in 1990. One of them was a distant relative of Gerry Cooney’s and all them guys were getting pretty liquored up shouting “Cooney, Cooney”. Them guys were obnoxious as all hell, and the more liquored up they got, the braver they got on wagering, as they all were out to prove they were down for the struggle.
George Foreman took a pretty good hit from Cooney in the first round, and they all acted like they won the fight, strutting around and getting in my face.
The second round, George Foreman cleaned his clock.... and I cleaned up pretty well. I left pretty quickly, and heard one guy say something like, “He has our money” like as if I was leaving in the middle of a poker game.
Best fight ever.

I didn't expect that either. This is what I hate about all that 'talk' before fights...Why can't someone come out and say, 'I'll do my best, but he's a big guy, so don't expect much...'?

I just watched the fight. They spent most of the time hugging. Looks like they loved each other.
Watching the press conference - they are withholding Khabib's purse (I think it's a Hello Kitty purse). McGregor gets his.

McGregor beat the hell out Khabib using his face only as his weapon of choice.

The only fights I used to watch was Muhammed Ali...he was a hell of a fighter...and stood up for his beliefs...right or wrong..not my decision.

Returning to the subject of the thread, this was not Conor's night. Hope he has another shot at a title.

The Heavys were always interesting to watch. I liked Sonny Liston. He had that way of staring at his opponet- the Tombstone Eye, then he would knock them down. Sonny was reputed to be something of a thug but who knows?
Floyd Patterson was another great. Remember the fight with Johansen back in '59?

Now I remember, watched Ali with will smith not too long ago, a good movie. Will Smith did a credible job but nothing like the original. It is hard to overstate just how much turmoil Cassius Clay created when he came on the scene back then. When he changed his name, Oh my!!
