[Video] McGregor training for Mayweather w/ Ido Portal

Any respectable boxing gym has hand eye coordination exercises. Ball hats, double mounted speed balls, dribbling tennis balls, punching hanging tennis balls, table tennis, laserpointer tag, reaction balls and... catching playing cards. The "dumber" the better because the object is to train the brain and not acquire a new set of motor skills.
Ok, fair enough. I've been around legit gyms and have seen all the stuff you're talking about just never this.

Yes, this seemed weirder to me.
It's done on purpose I'm sure. Ido Portal is using this as a big opportunity to get himself even more noticed.

You don't get noticed with regular stuff.

Besides, this is like one minute of hours and hours of preparation. I'm sure Conor is doing more besides punching cards.

Here's Dom Cruz and Phil Davis doing a card exercise at Alliance with their strength and conditioning coach.
