HBO分析师同时也在为ESPN工作的凯勒曼认为，UFC巨星麦格雷戈击败梅威瑟的几率几乎为零。
康纳.麦格雷戈8月26日在拉斯维加斯的T-Mobile竞技场上面对梅威瑟是他的职业拳击首演。比赛发生在154磅超次中量级限制，使用10盎司的手套。明天将由内华达州体育委员会作出裁决，是否可以使用8盎司的手套。
凯勒曼说；“他们在拳击台上开战，康纳获胜的几率几乎是百分之零，可以精准到百分之零点零零，康纳没有任何一丁点机会。康纳就像是一个被装饰起来的业余爱好者，你们知道么？他有一场4回合的比赛，一场6回合的比赛，15场比赛战绩是14-1，然后被安排来打梅威瑟。但作为一个业余爱好者要打10回合比赛，至少需要5或6年的时间来培训。
然后他才有机会击败梅威瑟这样优秀的拳击手，但是你会在没有经历过多年的，竞争激烈的拳击比赛的情况下，去打败一个最好的专业的拳击手么？不论他是四十岁了或者什么的，即使梅威瑟60岁了，也没什么关系。是否被KO取决于康纳想要承担多少风险，如果他冒险就会被击倒。如果他能做到安全第一，会走得远一些”。
Kellerman: Even a 60-Year-Old Mayweather Beats McGregor
Max Kellerman, who works for HBO Sports and ESPN, is giving UFC superstar Conor McGregor a zero shot to defeat five division champion Floyd Mayweather Jr.
McGregor makes his professional boxing debut against Mayweather on August 26th at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
Mayweather, 40 years old, is coming back from a two year retirement. He walked away from the sport in September 2015.

The contest takes place at the junior middleweight limit of 154-pounds, with 10-ounce gloves being used. Tomorrow there will be a ruling, by the Nevada State Athletic Commission, on whether or not 8-ounce gloves can be used.
McGregor is predicting a knockout victory in four rounds. Kellerman not only finds that scenario impossible, he finds it impossible to picture any scenario where McGregor will win.
Forget inactivity, forget age - Kellerman would give McGregor a zero shot to beat even a 60 year old version of Mayweather.
"They’re in a boxing ring. Conor has a zero percent chance. Precisely zero percent. They’re in a boxing ring. Conor McGregor, there’s no universe in which he can win," Kellerman told Desus & Mero.
"I mean, even the thought of it - if Conor McGregor was like a decorated amateur and they built him up, you know? He had a four-round fight, a six-round fight, this...then after fifteen fights he was like 14-1, and then fought a contender - even if he lost to the contender, right? But at least he held his own over ten rounds, it usually takes about 5 or 6 years to build a guy like that out of the amateurs."
"Then he would have a chance to win a round against someone half as good as Floyd Mayweather. But you’re gonna turn pro after not being in a boxing ring competitively for how many years? And fight one of the best pure boxers of all time? It doesn’t matter that he’s 40 or whatever. If [Mayweather] was 60 it wouldn’t matter."
However, Kellerman could see McGregor lasting the full twelve round distance - if he decides to play it safe in the ring.
"It depends on how many risks Conor wants to take. If Conor takes risks, he gets knocked out. If he plays it safe he goes the distance," Kellerman said. |
