I've watched him since 96 and I never seen him so off, he came through but Conor was gassed.
A lot of fighters from 147-160 would have beat Floyd tonight.
He needs to retire.
Nope. Mcgregor's length, awkwardness and skills made Floyd fight that fight.
He knew Conor didnt have the boxing conditioning exp to go last and exploited it. He was getting outboxed on the outside but no shame in that because Conor has very good hands
Yup, It's not Floyd looking shyit because it's father time. He looked like shyit coz Conor took him to school. Connor's distance game was great. Stiff jab, and those lefts were hitting the mark, especially the body shots were consistent.
Maybe you should look at his losses at around 40, even a few years earlier. He wasn't this unbeatable force.

So the Duran who beat Iran Barkley would have got knocked out by Conor Mcgregor?
Well, he's 40, hardly trained for this fight, and McGregor deserves a lot of credit for his performance. Definitely time to hang them up for good now, at least finally gave the casuals a good fight.
Yeah, ok. Hopefully for your credibility, this comment was made after at least 12-15 drinks.

Nothing. He'd get KOed by McGregor.
Troll much.
Duran arguably beat Hector Camacho when he was 45 ffs. That first fight was a robbery. Duran would slay Mcgregor with ease. Let's not forget how much Duran would want to dish out a beating on Mcgregor due to his mouth. 40 year old Duran would savage Mcgregor and It's not even debatable. K0 1.
TKO is a KO.
He's not a guy with no fights. He's the Ultimate Fighting Champion. That's what UFC stands for. Basically the best fighter in the world. So, he wasn't fighting no novice.
Floyd is just the epitome of a champion, even in his old age.
I'm enjoying this victory. My KKK friends are beating themselves up really good tonight!
This was a BOXING match, how many BOXING matches has Conor had? If you want to see who's the best fighter in the world then put them in a fight with the least amount of rules possible.
Yes, but the guy is 40 with a two year lay off. We can definitely give him a pass and he is definitely retiring after this one.
This...This...& This...
That was a TKO that should have happened in the 4th or sooner. How in the hell does someone with no fights win 3 and go 10 with the greatest boxer of our generation?
Just imagine what a 40 year old Duran would have done to Mcgregor.

Floyd spotted Mcgregor the first couple rounds and carried him to make it interesting.
Floyd didn't box on the outside at all, didn't move his feet at all, walked straight forward and made Mcgregor run away.
Broke Mcgregor down to the point where he couldn't continue and stopped him.
A master schooled a novice :boxing:
10 rounds to stop a guy with zero fights... if this was MMA, Floyd would be tapping in 30 seconds. You don't carry a guy like this for 10 rounds, Floyd ****ed boxing here!
Nah, in boxing terms, Floyd is a senior citizen. Our senior citizen KOed him. Think about that.
It's how you win, right? Floyd won by KO.

He almost got KOd twice in the fight by the uppercut and in the corner WHEN BYRD PULLED HIM AWAY and gave floyd time to recover. Conor won.

His timing was off by a lot, he didn't look sharp.
His time at P4P #1 is over.
His time at P4P #1 has been over for a long time. I don't think anyone is disputing that, regardless of what any outdated list tells us.
It's not just if you win, it's how you win. Boxing's greatest fighter lost 3 rounds and took 10 to beat a guy with ZERO pro boxing fights. That is embarrassing! McG should have been staring at the lights in under 4!

Who won tonight? Even with our senior citizen! Boxing or UFC?
