These idiots think Floyd gave rounds away. Floyd looked bad in this fight. Plain and simple. Floyd did not outbox Conor. Conor stamina is what beat him.

Originally posted by PF Rudyo View PostFloyd did look bad, but I believe whole heatedly part of this was Floyd carrying Conor and all.
This was the WORST kind of fight for shutting up Conor though. Can claim that he was stopped early, was competitive for the most part and like I said before, still now more then ever have the excuse that "He went to boxing and was competitive, Floyd would get knocked out in one round inside the octagon."
We will hear about this for a while, and MMA fans will refuse to acknowledge that Floyd was 40. Conor accorded himself very well though, respect to him.
I looked at Floyd, and once I realised he was flat footed and stalking Conor, I knew he was doing it purposely.
I also agree with the non bold. This is precisely why I mentioned you. These dudes are doing it already.
It'll be worse on Sherdog.

I noticed Floyd laughing and sticking his tongue out at the camera after round 2 or 3.
Definitely intentionally let Conor win the first 1-3 rounds without punching to make the fight look better.

Originally posted by richardt View PostIt's very obvious Floyd carried Conor because he knew there was no way Conor's arms could throw punches only for that long and not be exhausted. I was waiting for Floyd to open up because there was no way Conor was going to last the distance. MMA - this is our house. Your best is not going to beat our best in the boxing ring, period! Same thing the other way around.

Floyd carried him pretty clearly. You can even hear Floyd sr tell him that whenever he's ready or to go ahead and pick up the pace now, etc.
The difference in skill was as big as expected. Floyd landed when he wanted and was literally not even out of breath. Fair play to McGregor but it literally looked like Floyd was helping someone box and then had enough. Mayweather showed complete disdain throughout. Conor just doesnt have the leverage to punch effectively in boxing. He looked like a weak, slow bear/ogre. I'm happy for him that hes going to get all this money and they showed him mercy by stopping it without him going down. He's got a career and a son to look forward to. It wouldnt have been fair to let Floyd tee off on him for two more rounds.

Great Job by both Fighters. Mayweather doing his best to not embarrass Connor so he can go back to his sport with head held high. Mayweather taking care of business, not fighting his usual pot shot defensive fight. He was the stalker tonight. But really it was a big show to take people's money, and so they did.
