is conor a pillow puncher or floyd has iron chin?

In an interview after the fight he said Conor had solid power just not on the level of Maidana, Pacquiao, Mosley etc. He isnt even the hardest hitting MMA guy. Very accurate & precise puncher (MMA standards) but doesnt have many one punch knock outs.

People got taken, that was worse than WWE. They were pulling their punches, no one was out to hurt anybody. A lot of suckers out there including so called experts.

He probably has decent power but doesn't know how to use it properly because he's not a trained boxer and therefore doesn't know how to sit on his throws. He'll knock out UFC guys who aren't used to being hit in the face as much as a boxer but you can't say off of that he has a lot of power.

you thoughts? conor hits like a girl or floyd has a better chin than aldo,Mendes.alvarez,nate The thing is Floyd is a guy who almost NEVER get hit clean, let alone on the chin.

Didn't McGregor say that Mayweather's brain was going to be "rattled" even if he hit him through his guard and wouldn't be able to take his punch?

Good read... Mayweather v McGregor was watched by nearly 3m people on illegal livestreams 3-4 minutes An estimated 2.93 million people managed to access an illegal online broadcast of Floyd Mayweather's 10-round victory over Conor McGregor in Las Vegas, online security experts have claimed. Irdeto, a digital security company, say that the fight - only available on pay-per-view, for which viewers in the US had to pay up to $99.95 - was nevertheless made available for internet users through social media channels such as Facebook, YouTube, Periscope and Twitch. Over 200 such streams were identified by Irdeto, the majority of which came via social media rather than the illegal streaming sites that have traditionally hosted the broadcasts. In fact, illegal streams of the hugely anticipated event were advertised on e-commerce sites like Amazon, eBay and Alibaba.

So-called "digital Robin Hoods" paid the subscription, only to make their stream available to anyone who had the link. One just one day last week, Irdeto found more than 40 adverts promoting illegal streams for the Las Vegas event. "Live sports are a cornerstone of global piracy, with thousands of sites providing illegal content attracting millions of viewers,” said Rory O’Connor, senior VP of cybersecurity services at Irdeto. “When combating live sports piracy, speed in disrupting piracy is essential...By identifying and stopping pirate streams in real-time through specialized knowledge and technology, content owners and operators are able to protect revenue and deliver a greater user experience.” Source: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/boxing/2017/08/28/mayweather-v-mcgregor-watched-nearly-3m-people-illegal-livestreams/amp/

MMA guys are just more vulnerable because their boxing skills aren't up to par. I kept saying this to MMA fans but they are everything threw that biased view. Aldo walked right into that left hand.

Floyd does have a great chin but McGregor isn't a puncher in Boxing, if Mosley, Maidana, Cotto, etc. hit those MMA guys clean when leaving their chins in the air with 4oz mitts they'd knock them out stone cold.

Both, maybe Connor has the ability to punch harder, but taking off his punches was the only way he could land on Floyd.

Both. In 50 fights you can literally count the times he's been hurt. Connor also does not know how to sit on his punches or rotate correctly to actually punch through his target.

You forgot both he has a good chin but Connor is a pillow puncher had he been this one punch KO artist the MMA sets him out to be Mayweather would have been knocked out with that upper cut coming from a guy 20 pounds heavier

He couldn't even hit Floyd with a hard, flush shot, so saying he has no power at all holds no merit. Floyd has a damn good chin though, but that's largely because he doesn't get hit on it often. Guys who don't hit much tend to have great chins.

like a poster said already . he doesnt know how to transfer his weight. He needs to be taught how to punch really. he could get more power with proper technique

I wonder what the poster GGG thinks?He thinks Conor won the fight and celebrated the victory with his Irish fans.

Conor has no power at all. Literally nothing on his punches.

Mayweather has a far better chin than any UFC fighter PFP in my opinion. Top boxers have better chins than MMA fighters or they wouldn't make it to the top.

I wonder what the poster GGG thinks?

I think Conor is a good puncher especially with the straight left. Of course Mayweather has a great chin. He has proven that by fighting so many good punchers without ever being down. Conor's power is good but not on a par with the big punchers like Cotto, Mosley or Canelo.

Floyd has a good chin, not magarito level or anything but he defends it so well and his recuperative powers are extraordinary. Everytime hes been stunned or hurt hes been able to bounce back relatively quickly, due to his conditioning and how relaxed he is in the ring. Connor is a pillow puncher for his size, guy is a MW punching like a LWW

I'd be more inclined to judge after he spent a few years learning to transfer his weight first, lol. Yeah, his jab had more on it than his straight left by the look of it. He'd have to be George Foreman to put a dent in Floyd with his current technique.
