re: Regardless of the actual fight, Mcgregor won last night. Actually, he dominated.

You all seem to be overly obsessed with moral victory/butthurt theme...so here is the simple shortbus version:

(1)Conor wanted a huge payday that UFC can't provide but boxing can.
(2)Conor targeted the only man in boxing who would create that kind of payday.
(3)Mayweather likes money too and finally agrees.
(4)Sport of boxing bends over and let's it happen.
(5)Conor is now an estimated $70-$100 million richer.

In summary, Conor used the sport of boxing like a hooker and made off with close to $100 million dollars and chased it down with some freakin' whiskey. Of course Mayweather made more...that's why Conor's been baiting him for 2 years.

Thus, like I said in the title, regardless of the fight (win or lose for the short bus crowd), he actually won last night. He achieved his goal. He weaseled his way into the sport of boxing, against the biggest name in the sport and brought home a payday very few boxers will ever see.

The dominating part is because he pulled it off while actually managing to keep his credibility.
