        I agree with those who say it was a dive. The slo mos show the final punch coming off the shoulder and grazing past his ear. He also could have taken the one minute in the corner if he really wanted to get up. The round was over and it certainly wasnt a debilitating shot.

          Why even report in the BS and referee Kenny Bayliss no wonder Jake Paul says Boxing is corrupt Kenny was also the referee in most of Floyd’s fights.

            It always makes me laugh how people claim Floyd carried Conor though. Like Floyd would ever willingly go "okay i'll let this white boi MMA guy go 10 rounds with me, win several of them and never touch the canvas"
            I think it was pretty obvious Floyd carried him. He hardly threw a punch the first three rounds. He gradually increased his punch output throughout. Floyd wanted to knock him out late, when Conor was exhausted, and there was no danger.

              Thats not carrying him, thats strategy. Was taking dozens more punches than he got caught with vs Pac part of his plan too? even when he ramped up his output from the 4th onwards it still took him 7 rounds to get a ref wave off stoppage on a gassed dude who he was unable to put on the ground once. It was just a straight up poor showing.

                  You’re an idiot. He literally bet 400,000 on himself winning by 10 round TKO/KO. Understand that at the elite level, boxers will always toy with MMA fighters.

                    He’s some troll from some MMA site. Don’t take him serious.

                      ...yeah, people talking dive don't understand.

                      Mayweather was in complete control of the second round until Asakura clipped Mayweather with a right hook with just over 45 seconds to go in the second round. Asakura landed a left several seconds later, which made Mayweather smile at him as he moved backward.
                      Floyd was going to let it just be a nice thump-thump, move around, entertain the fans...but just like Nasukawa, when you land a punch... Money starts smiling at you, means he's about to beat your ass.

                      That's the real highlight.
