McGregor vs. Mayweather

[Taddy Mason]

Except that Floyd didn't run tonight. If Mayweather fought this way for his entire career then he would have a few losses on his record

KYP.

Know your opponent. I'm pretty sure Floyd said in the interview afterwards he wanted to give the fans some entertainment after the negative reviews of the Manny fight.

Easy fight for Floyd. Mcgregor basically did nothing after round 3

It was a Hell of a lot better job than Mayweather would do in a cage. McGregor was competing into the 10th round. Mayweather wouldn't make it out if the 1st round in a cage. Nice job by Connor

I thought he was bullshitting when he said that just to sell the fight but he backed up his word. He could have won 12-0 had he fought the way he did in the Manny fight but would have got killed for it

I loved the fight. 1-3 was fun with each other sizing each other, 4-8 was an old fashioned competitive fight, and 9&10 were a fun beatdown.

1-2 we're clearly Conor's
3, 5, and 8 were close
4, 6, 7, and 9 were clearly Floyd.

I scored all three close rounds to Conor, do I had it 86-85 Conor at the stoppage. I liked the stoppage, though. Once Conor's legs were gone, he didn't know how to defend. Floyd was gonna put him down within the next 20 seconds.

True but remember McGregor is the one who wanted this fight. Not vice versa so I could careless how Floyd would do in a cage.

 

[bksballer89]

Totally agree with this. If he had some power then I could see some success in boxing.

I think a primed Floyd circa mid 2000s would do better than you think. The current Floyd, not so much.

LOL, you would never get Mayweather into a cage fight.

Enjoyed the fight. Figured Money would knock him out, but McGregor showed much better than I expected.

And Floyd is 40. Fuck, the dude was retired for 2 years. I know he said this was his last fight again, but I can see him come back like the Executioner and do a fight at 50 to get some money.

Fighting a guy who has never fought a boxing match and your strategy...while a winner...was to wait for the other guy to gas..less than impressed

Isn't Mayweather the top "upper tier boxer?

No

Pretty retarded argument to say 'Floyd couldn't handle it in a cage.'

When you're 50-0, made almost a BILLION dollars, and are 40, there is NOTHING Mayweather needs to prove to a bunch of MMA fans.

He could have been typical boring floyd and won a UD 11-1 or 12-0. I don't get your bitching.

Not a prayer, though he did say he could bear Connor in an MMA fight...which us laughable

 

[DetroitDevil]

I wanted McGregor to win... but after the 5th... it was obvious it wasnt gonna happen

Mayweather, like him or not... He is the Best Boxer ever.

McGregors Left is not as badass as he thinks it is.

It was a great fight.

I agree but he's still a fight dodging bitch and would get smoked by GGG

less than inspired? fuck, it's the text book way to an easy win, which it was. fuck, should he have gave Connor a free shot to make it sporting? Work smarter not harder, it's an easy concept. He still did that and sold the fight. Trust me, he sold the fight.
