Conor McGregor Admires His Work Against Mayweather, Looks Ahead To Pacquiao Bout
Conor McGregor has been admiring his boxing skills ahead of a potential fight against eight-weight champion Manny Pacquiao.
McGregor revealed earlier this week that a deal is done for him to square off against the boxing legend in the Middle East. A spokesperson for Pacquiao later confirmed the fight is set and the Filipino fighter will be donating the vast majority of his purse to his fellow countrymen who are struggling amid the ongoing pandemic.
‘Notorious’ took to social media last night to admire his handy work in his lone boxing fight to date – a tenth round TKO loss to Floyd Mayweather back in 2017, he wrote.
“The very first shot of the fight. Right on the button through the guard. I didn’t even put anything into that shot. Just placed it. It was hard for me not to dwell on the full 12 rounds that were potentially ahead of me and hold back my shots early. Still tho right on the absolute button. The first punch thrown. Remember the experts saying I wouldn’t land even 1 lol. I landed more than them all. The picture above is the very first punch of the fight thrown, and landed, and inside the very first second of the fight. Bums all of them “experts”. Listen to none of them! Really I should have just sat right thru that shot and took his head off and fuck the distance. If it didn’t work out just give him a good boot into the neck and get DQ’d and fined and who’d give a fuck. I’m upset I fully followed the rules for that fight to be honest. Floyd deserved a volley at the least. A shoulder even, break the face.
“Manny not so much tho I don’t think, but I will see how the build up goes and wait to hear what bitter old Freddie Roach has to say and then make a decision. My Whiskeys at half a b and climbing I could take a fine. I’d rather fight MMA anyway not sure why I’ve been held back like this, it’s borderline criminal at this stage. The biggest number generator in the game asking for four fights since February this year and getting left on seen. It’s pretty fucked up when I keep thinking of it. I’ve been right here this whole time. Bob Chapek, do you copy! I repeat, Bob Chapek – Do You Copy! Anyways boxing it is for now and I’m up for this! I hope no bottling takes place here. I’m already agreeing to these limited rules and holding back my full array of weapons. Let’s get it going guys. Much love, the champ champ.”
Do you think Conor McGregor will actually box Manny Pacquiao?
