Yup I'm actually convinced McG would win a street fight

Definitely in MMA

That was a great fight by recent major fight standards

Not sure why McGregor is getting shite on, by any reasonable standard he performed well considering

So just to recap for the youngins that don't know how the world works.

Over under was set at 9.5, most of the money on the under.

Halfway through the 10th round, Mayweather starts lighting his arse up and the ref stops it.

There's a life lesson in there somewhere.

It was like Floyd took a puppy to the park to let him get his energy out in the 1st 4 rounds. After that it was a clinic.

I've only ever watched two fights. PAC vs Money and this one.

The PAC fight was boring as shite but this one was entertaining

Oh, wow, new cool take.

But it wasn't MMA...and still MMA dipshites on here said McGregor would knock out Mayweather in a pure boxing match...fricking idiots.

Floyd just said, our gameplan was to let him be a total fricking idiot and shoot all his heavy shots because in MMA they don't fight real fights...and everything is short.

yeah if you think FM fights are boring (and they are), the HW division is that style on steroids

boxing needs to adapt some scoring changes to reward offense more

Floyd's plan was to let McGregor fire off unnecessary shots and tire out. Now Floyd will blank him for the rest of the fight....probably late stoppage.

People complaining about the match being stopped have never watched a boxing match before

CM didn't call it, but he didn't seem mad that it was called. Dude was gassed and was bound to get KOd at some point.

Mayweather will never agree to an octogon fight

Why would he? He does not hold himself out as one who crosses over. He ain't stupid

Exactly, if that is a "great" fight I can see why it is a dying sport. That was boring

That was great. Tactical boxing.

CM fans are going to hate on boxing because their guy lost.

I actually agree. He boxed safe. Conor did well And that was much more entertaining than I thought it'd be.
