When was it and who won?

What did you guys think of Mayweather vs McGregor?

As always, easy money.

I think it's fair to say that the mountain lacks the athleticism to make it in the NFL, and O linemen lack the strength to make it in strong man.

No way of knowing since he didn't grow up in the US where it would have been a priority just like many NFL players could have been successful in strongman. Horses for courses. He's obviously found what he does best.

[GeneralSerpant]

When was it and who won?

You did.

As always, easy money.

Yeah for them. Holly fark it was a $130 million total payout.

Anyways it was late August of this last year. I saw nothing but speculation leading up to it, and I guessed right, but after the fight pretty much everybody agreed it was probably the most reasonable outcome to expect. McGregor just couldn't keep up with Mayweather's experience in Mayweather's own sport.

They fighting in the octagon?

[GeneralSerpant]

No, it was boxing. I would think McGregor is more likely to have boxing skills whereas Mayweather would be kinda exposed.

McGregor is younger and bigger. I'm not really sure how many people were on the fence about it, but anybody I could find to talk about it wasn't necessarily certain. It was just kind of an indifferent situation, but a fight worth the money nonetheless.

This guy's not having any **** about Homepod being an Echo knockoff.


Cliffs:
Amazon made echo to boost selling on Amazon.
Companies like Google and Amazon have limited entry into hardware world (cellphones, voice portals, etc...).
Apple makes expensive products if people will buy them.

No, I watched the "fight". I was asking if they were gonna fight in the octagon?

Mayweather better start learning some grapples if they are.

Yeah I posted about the payout back in June, and we posted about the event back in August. Although I think only me and im2kids watched it. I was considering betting a little on the heavy underdog Irishman, but after I heard MGM was set to suffer their largest loss in history if McGregor won, I of course changed course and took the sure thing. Anyone that knows ANYTHING about MGM knows that wasn't going to happen. Although, not surprising, in the week leading in there were several seven figure bets on the books for Mayweather.

So how's everyone's training coming along... couple weeks until spring (maybe it'll be 40F up here?)
I'm doing 1 set to failure like a real man. (and because I'm doing 45 mins of cardio DAILY)
I've bashed this in the past but should be interesting to see how it goes!

[Orlando1234977]

And in sports news, the NCAA record of 19 consecutive years of a school sending both their basketball team to the tourney and football team to a bowl game, will finally come to an end. Wonder if anyone will ever come close.
cliffs, march madness will suk

I hate winter.

I'm doing 8x2 on bench. Not sure if I'm gonna raise the weight now or wait until I get 8x3.

Before I recently halted my cardio I started doing some HIIT on the rowing machine. If I get back into cardio on rest days or something then that should be interesting.

This february was the first since 1865 that it didn't rain where I live. Rained hard on March 1st lol.

Cutting (sorta) on 5/3/1......finally able to squat again after a month off due to knee pain. Trying to get back down to ~200. Training is going well, again.

Welcome to your 40s. The whole cutting concept is still foreign to me, let alone the primary goal smh. Knees have been ok but definitely feel a little different lately.

That's actually not my whole workout, it's just what I just changed my bench to. I switched to pronated pull-ups, that's going better than I expected. Fixing posture that's made my back stress less when doing squats.

Speaking of weather, Dom what is the deal with Australia?

[GeneralSerpant]

Also, Frep... he always had considerable insight on winter weather.

Surprised no response, these are usually the type of questions that they're fully capable of answering. Maybe they need to get average vox on the case.

[Dominik]

Speaking of weather, Dom what is the deal with Australia?

In terms of US states weather here is probably similar to Florida and southern TX. It gets hot everywhere but further north is obviously more humid/tropical. I don't mind dry heat. I was driving around with the windows down when it hit 105 with low humidity. No fks given. But 85~ with 95%+ humidity isn't fun for anyone without aircon or not in the water.

Having dropped a few pounds the heat doesn't bother me much. Right now it's 60-80. Not bad at all. The good news is it's nearly May-June when it cools down to perfect weather. Lows of 40, highs of 65, no shoveling snow off driveways, etc.

I do prefer the cold but I've never experienced anything extreme like Frep. Take a wrong turn somewhere low on fuel and that could be the end. I like lows around 20 with snow but nothing ridiculous.

Manly, another strongman transformation. Terry Hollands.



Now weighing in around 350 at nearly 6'7".

[GeneralSerpant]

That's impossible

[Orlando1234977]

I think if someone on my squad didn't submit a tournament bracket and put their personal balls on the line I would probably have no choice but to consider processing preliminary termination proceedings. I have Virginia over MSU in the Championship game.

Oklahoma made it in and Oklahoma State did not ha ha ha

[PapaBurgandy]

They both should be in the NIT.....OU is a 6 win team without Trae Young. OSU had the 306th rated non conference schedule and an RPI of 88. I look for Oklahoma to get beat by at least 10 by Rhode Island. I really hope UVA doesn't make it that far, the game would be almost unwatchable.

Ouch I have them beating Rhode Island and then getting roasted by Duke. I'll give it a second look.

They've lost 11 out of their last 15 games.
