Since that time broner has feared letting his hands go, which is a shame with that kind of speed and punching power... zab Judah all over again.
Still super confused by that. Dude throws 4 punches a round.
If he actually focused on being more like Pacman and less like a Floyd, he would be a whole lot better.
Are people really trying to avoid the fact that SK was hunched over prior to that lowblow?
Why doesn't that matter? Dude basically tapped out prior to that point.
Definitely a low blow, that Weeks didn't see.....but the only reason the fight was stopped is because he was just standing take shots in the feeble position. If he's actively defending himself and punching back....he probably gets the benefit of the doubt after the low blow.

Definitely a low blow. But SK was bending over, begging not to be hit. He essentially conceded at that point. Not punching back, bent over at the waste....that's why it was stopped. Dude was getting peppered with body shots and just couldn't take anymore.
This conversation is pretty weird....people won't accept both sides. The final blow was low, but the others were on the belt line (which was established as fair at the beginning of the fight).
Lmao, no, he will never be a top p4p. Cant wait till he gets his jaw busted from leaving his mouth open all the damn time.
Pretty sure that's already happened....
Maidana left him battered.
I've seen this said over and over in this thread, but people are dismissing it for some reason.....but UFC PPVs are stacked. White puts lots of great fights on one card.
Makes zero sense to compare the two that way.
Also,
The Lesnar/Tate PPV would've been amazing if Jones didn't fail his drug test. Think about what it would've done with the true main event on the card.
Just proves that Mcgregor, while a star in his own right, benefits from the whole show.
It isn't next. Too close to the football world cup, he will not play this card in the wrong timing
Wolrld Cup is usually over in July, right?
Shouldn’t be an interfere with a September/October fight. No?
He landed 2 or 3 solid right hands in the first round and set the pace. When Pacquiao tasted a couple of those I think from then on he knew he wouldn't be able to just walk in on Mayweather like he did some of those other opponents.
Pretty much.
Manny heard all of the talk about Floyd's punches lacking power......he caught one in the first minute and it changed the entire scope of the fight.
People have said it for a long time, Floyd has sneaky power. Not enough to knock you out, but enough for you to know you can't take too many of em. That's why fighters end up throwing less punches, they're afraid of the counter. Manny was no different.
Can someone legitimately explain why they feel Floyd doesn’t stand a chance?
I’m no MMA guru.....but Conor isn’t a big wrestler. He kicks a bit...but it’s mostly used as a jab....he’s not Wonderboy.
From what I’ve seen, he’s mostly a striker....with his hands.
Why is it so farfetched to think Floyd might go in there and rough him up?
Again - I’m not an MMA guru. Just looking for someone to explain why it’s a “guaranteed” loss for Floyd.
For the record, I understood the mismatch presented when Conor went to boxing. It was pretty clear he wouldn’t stand a chance in that environment. The only chance he had was catching Floyd flush, something that’s happened like 4-5x in 20 years. When he did catch him, Floyd ate the punch and realized the guy’s power didn’t translate at all.
