It\u2019s a similar thing with boxing and MMA.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While Noons doesn&#8217;t make any bold predictions for the fight, he does plan on watching and feels the matchup is good for the sport.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWill it be competitive?\u201d Noons said. \u201cI don\u2019t know.

The &#8220;Irish Hand Grenade&#8221; also says MMA and boxing are two very different sports.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOnce you understand that it\u2019s not the same sport, you can\u2019t keep telling yourself that it\u2019s just a fight,&#8221; said Davis. &#8220;The gloves are bigger, the tactics are different. A lot of the defenses that work in boxing are ones you can\u2019t even use in MMA.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Davis explained his own experience with sparring MMA fighters under boxing rules and says it was like night and day.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut then sometimes I\u2019d go to MMA gyms, and people who knew I boxed would want to put on the gloves and do some boxing sparring with me,\u201d Davis said. \u201cAnd when we did that, and I could use all my old boxing tricks, my boxing stance and defense, then I\u2019d just destroy them. They just couldn\u2019t touch me because it was a completely different game. I knew how to play that game, and they didn\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Davis admitted that he won&#8217;t be dishing out any of his own money to watch the fight on August 26 and is fine with just catching the highlights on social media. While not so interested in watching the actual fight, Davis gave his prediction for how things will go on fight night.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s going to have to work really hard just to get a clean look at him, but when he thinks he has an opportunity to hit him, then Floyd will tie him up,\u201d Davis said. \u201cI think he\u2019s going to get desperate, he\u2019s going to start lunging, because he\u2019ll realize he can\u2019t lay a glove on him. That\u2019s when I think he\u2019ll start getting hit with the harder shots, and I think he\u2019ll probably get stopped within six rounds. If McGregor can make it more than six rounds, that looks bad for boxing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Chris-Lytle.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"730\" height=\"380\" src=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Chris-Lytle.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-243599\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Chris-Lytle.png 730w, https:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Chris-Lytle-300x156.png 300w, https:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Chris-Lytle-585x305.png 585w, https:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Chris-Lytle-390x203.png 390w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Chris Lytle, who has had <a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/mmanews\/1exclusive-chris-lytle-talks-life-outside-the-ufc-with-bjpenn-com-radio-part-ii\/\">54 pro MMA fights<\/a> and 15 pro boxing fights also feels the same way as Davis regarding the outlook on the two sports and McGregor&#8217;s chances in the ring.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cConor, he\u2019s a very good and maybe even a great striker for MMA,\u201d Lytle said. \u201cBut there is a very big difference between boxing striking and MMA striking. Let\u2019s say you think Conor is a good boxer, which is a pretty big compliment for someone who\u2019s never had a boxing match. But even then, he\u2019s definitely not a great boxer or an elite boxer, and Floyd doesn\u2019t get hit by elite boxers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Although Lytle is predicting that he will be disappointed after the mega money fight is over, he will be tuning in on fight night.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m sure I\u2019m going to watch it,\u201d he said. \u201cOf course I am. I\u2019ve got to see the spectacle train wreck just like everybody else. But I know I\u2019m going to leave disappointed.
