This wasnt a boxing match. It was a put on show. They talked it up, put on a little show tonight, neither fighter had to take a blow to their egos and they both leave with a boat load of money that they scammed the people for.

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


mayweather hasn't had a " great fight" in over a decade.
Sept. 16 will be a great fight. Canelo vs ggg.

Money mayweather had the right strategy Play opossum let Conor tire himself out and light him up. Pretty good to to do against a guy 25 pounds heavier and 11 years younger

Or every one of the other 49 fights he's fought. That's what he does. I don't think MM is P4P, but I'm amazed how he's notched 50

Floyd did nothing the first 3 rounds but let Connor pretend he was in a boxing match and let him throw wild punches like an idiot.



totally agree. FMM played with him and cruised the first 3 rounds. Wasn't a close fight at all.

Good fight. Amazing that McGregor made it into the 10th round against one of the greatest professional boxers of all time.

Some of you guys don't get it. The fight had to be stopped. What did you want, to see CM go out on a stretcher? That would have happened. Period.

FM was playing with him, he doesn't have a scratch on him, no bumps, bruises, and not winded at all. The guy is 50-0 for a reason.

I'm kinda disappointed that CM didn't unconsciously swing a roundhouse kick during the fight.

Lesson is not to bet against Vegas?

So both boxers were doing what they were told?

How dumb is McGregor to not know that Floyd would use his MMA against him and let him tire himself out in the first 2 rounds?

Floyd knew MMA is total bullshite, nobody can last past 4 rounds compared to boxing...their aeorobic sucks.

He played with him by skirting the rules and turning his back every chance he got

How could you not think McGregor would win a street fight?

Most mma guys would end money in a street fight. He is a great boxer probably the best but you throw in any other style and it's over for him

If it's and buts we're candy and nuts, we'd all have a merry Christmas.

I wanted Conor to win and everybody knows that Conor would seriously hurt Floyd if they did MMA; but they didn't, they were boxing.

Conor is the more skilled fighter all around, Floyd is the more skilled boxer. And I see nothing wrong with that.

Mayweather has an IQ of 65 and he's richer than can be comprehended. What a time to be alive.
