Will history repeat Rocky on August 26?
John Kavanagh: “49-0 until he faced a tough southpaw that nobody gave a chance to…”
He was 49-0, an African-American boxer of towering skill, who was practically raised by his trainer. In the other corner was a tough Southpaw with limited boxing skills, and a young child. The odds against the Southpaw were +500.
This is Rocky 2, Apollo Creed vs. Rocky Balboa. However, SBGi founder and coach of a tough Southpaw with a young child and limited boxing skills, facing, yup, +500 odds, drew a parallel. It could as well be UFC lightweight champion Conor McGregor vs. the greatest boxer of his generation, Floyd Mayweather Jr.

So what will be the ending of MayGregor? Rocky: Ain’t gonna be no rematch; don’t want one?
Rocky II: Yo Dee I did it?
Or Rocky IV …
Last month Stallone was asked who will win MayGregor.
“You know who’s going to win,” said Stallone. “You know who’s going to win. Who do you think’s going to win? I always have the underdog. He’s a real life Rocky. But then again … I live in fantasy.”
“But then again … I live in fantasy.”
The Money Fight will take place on August 26, 2017 at the T-Mobile Arena in Paradise, Nevada.
