Fight Fans: Mayweather vs Mcgregor

[Escapee..]

I dont understand Connor's tactics. Everyone knew that if the fight went longer than 5 rounds that he would be out classed.

 

He never went for the kill. He hardly threw a big punch. It was as if he waw boxing for points.

 

Not a big Mayweather fan but he showed why he is 50-0. Looked in total control from round 1

Nice article in the Irish Times about the match:

"Floyd Mayweather outclasses Conor McGregor with 10th round TKO.

 

Irishman struggles to lay a glove on 40-year-old in a Vegas boxing masterclass."

Mayweather needed three rounds to take McGregor’s measure before spending the next seven walking him down and closing the show with a 10th-round knockout.

Vegas is a town built on suckers and dreamers and there were no shortage of either in the desert for a fight that’s expected to threaten the all-time revenue records set by Mayweather’s megafight with Manny Pacquiao two years ago.

This is the only guy I can think of who could catch Floyd.

Bugger the two in the middle, I would have paid good money to see the two girls get into a wrestling match.

I hear you, the reason I never gave McGregor a chance was it's just not a discipline you learn overnight - top boxers have all this built into their systems long before they ever get in a ring. You could see Connor could just not control trying hammer punches despite knowing full well he obviously can't do it... it's built into his game/system.

 

I think McGregor knew this much as well. He was never going to outbox Floyd. Was the open stance not bait to lure out the ultra defensive Mayweather?

 

I avoided most of the farcical build up, two egos this size was always going to get ridiculous, but at the end of the day we all sat down and watched it along with millions of others because it's entertainment and it's real unlike WWF. Just like I would watch a boxing match between Putin and Trump, but for other reasons 

 

Hopefully this is the last we ever see of Mayweather though, never liked him, never will... still wish he's had the balls to fight Pacman at his peak.

I don't think I know enough about Mayweather to comment, but I would like to see a rematch with Pacman.

Not sure we need to see Pacman beat Mayweather again....

My money will go in the chickie on the left. The blondie doesn't look tough enough.

Covered in Corona? Must mean they are into "watersports".

Called at the right time..McGregor was cooked, McGregor may have said he was a little fatigued..but is was finished.

 

People may want to see KO's but in reality no one wants to see someone get beaten to a pulp and McGregor was on his way to getting really hurt.

 

Well as Patches said more MMA fans will be a little more interested in boxing or at least go read up on how scoring works and rules and realise that boxing isn't just walking around and throwing a few punches. Same can be said for the boxing fans about MMA.

 

Could McGregor become a good boxer..perhaps, but I think he's made his money and will go back and only to the octagon.

Just another round

Mcgegor deserved to get beaten some more, if you talk the talk (and MCG shouts) you got to be prepared to do the walk... he has a hard head and would have been fine.
