UFC superstar Conor McGregor was pretty confident that he has evolved into a better boxer than he was three years ago.
The Irish, who once fought Floyd Mayweather Jr., in 2017, his first professional boxing match, took Twitter his eagerness to showcase his talent inside the ring.
\”They won\’t let me fight again in 2020. But, yes, that boxing bout was three years ago now. I am infinite times better than I was then. No question! Excited to show! Only got 40 seconds out the last time,\” he tweeted.
This topic sparked after Gervonta Davis displayed his perfect uppercut against Leo Santa Cruz.
Fans were thinking, what if McGregor was able to do that to Mayweather.
However, McGregor will not have his chance of a rematch against the American. Instead, he was reportedly going to fight Manny Pacquiao. Mayweather’s rival.
The match can quickly become a reality because both athletes are under the Paradigm Sports right now.
They were initially expected to fight in the first quarter of 2021. Still, the UFC halted the excitement as they revealed that McGregor accepted an MMA fight in January against Dustin Poirier.
MMA and boxing are very different from each other.
How will McGregor cope up with the changes if he will genuinely fight Pacquiao?
How good is the “better” he is claiming?
All we saw in the 2017 fight was entertainment. Not a clash, not a warrior with the intent to destroy his opponent, we overlook that.
They cashed in tons of dollars. But McGregor should realize that Pacquiao is very different than Mayweather. He never fights to make people laugh and feel happy. Pacquiao is a destroyer inside the ring.
We\’ve seen footage of McGregor\’s recent boxing training. However, from what we saw, it was not convincing at all.
Just by looking at how he threw punches will make you feel disgusted. His stance is awful. So how come he was able to say he is way better now?

Tyson Fury's Dad sets constraints on the AJ-Fury rematch

The “Gypsy King” Tyson Fury (33-0-1) is set to rematch with two-time former unified world heavyweight champ Anthony Joshua (26-3-0) next year but Fury’s dad pushes Joshua vs Wilder first.

Deontay Wilder, “The Bronze Bomber” (43-2-1), former WBC heavyweight champ, is the first American world heavyweight champ since 2007. He defended his title for 10 times.

But, Wilder lost to Fury twice after their trilogy last October 9, 2021 in an eleventh round KO.

John Fury blurted to The Daily Mail that many boxers are ducking Wilder because they are afraid of him. He added that only his son defeated Wilder twice yet he praised the latter’s power.

As of this writing, the said rematch is still unclear however, DAZN reported last September 23, 2023 that promoter Eddie Hearns got an venue offer to stage the fight next year.

Nikola Jokic, Lebron James will kick off the NBA 2023-24 season.

The unfinished business between the Denver Nuggets and Los Angeles Lakers will resume on October 24, 2023 in Ball Arena Denver, Colorado.

It can be recalled that the Nuggets swept the Lakers in the Western Conference. Shockingly, they advanced to their very first NBA Finals in franchise history with 4 – 0 in the Western Conference Finals.

“I know how great he is,” James said in the press conference last May 2023 about Jokic.

Jokic won MVP of the Western Conference Finals after he exploded with 27.8 points, 14.5 rebounds and 11.8 assists.

On the other hand, Lebron James felt humiliated with a sweep loss though it is not his first time to be swept. James got swept also last 2018, when his Cavaliers clashed with the Golden State Warriors.

Meanwhile, Lebron is expected to erupt vs the Nuggets.

Crawford no match to Canelo at 168 – GGG coach

Gennady Golovkin (GGG) former coach Abel Sanchez presumes that Terrence Crawford is no match to Mexican pound for pound king Canelo Alvarez at 168 lbs.

In an interview by Fight Hub TV last October 9, 2023, GGG coach said that Canelo vs Crawford is laughable.

Sanchez is a Mexican-American trainer and coach of Gennady Golovkin who is the real rival of Canelo.

Undefeated and undisputed welterweight champion Crawford (40 – 0) has defeated his rival Errol Spence jr. last July 29, 2023 but still not enough to win vs Canelo.

It can be recalled that both Crawford and Spence Jr. have been craving to fight the Mexican superstar but to no avail.

When asked if Crawford can win vs Canelo, Sanchez said: “He [Crawford] gets beat. So, in my opinion, that’s not a good fight.”
