    It's a PPV, non-title, circus, money-grab fight. This is an unworthy diversion from Fury fighting Usyk for the undisputed HW title.

      MCGregor was the first fighter Floyd had actually KO'd/TKO'd since Ricky Hatton (coming up from 140) a whole entire decade prior.

      Floyd didn't drop or knock people out, he outboxed them. But he stopped McGreor.
      A guy who was an active top p4p'er less than 2 years earlier taking 10 rounds to get a standing ref stoppage over a gassed 0-0 in boxing MMA fighter and losing some of the early rounds is not a good showing, no. He should have ended that fight definitively within 5 rounds at the absolute most.

        Fury will carry him so that the fans will feel like they got their money's worth. This is a complete and utter mismatch, but at least Francis gets a good check out of it.

          One minute, McGregor was competitive, next minute the excuse is Floyd was carrying him.
          Are you on crack? Or meth? Or fentanyl? Con Man was never outboxing Floyd. It's not possible. And Floyd trained ten days for that farce.

            What? You mean they aren't discussing the fight on NFL Network! Shocking!

              McGregor is way better boxer than Ngannou. Arguably best in MMA history.

              But, Fury gonna carry Ngannou for a while. Fans wanna long night.

                He carried McTapout only because he had round props on himself to win in the 10th which was a huge + number. Oscar broke that story and Floyd later on admitted it.

                  Buster and Holy are Mike's daddies.
                  He is faded all the time and just talks out of his ass. I think he likes to hear himself talk and yea I find him annoying as well. He talks alot of bullsht so whatever comes out of his mouth has to be taken with a grain of salt.

                    yeah but it wasn't entertaining. and Mayweather never cared about entertainment.

                      Fury is not a big puncher at HW but because hes so damn big he automatically has heavy punches and should be able to hurt and KO Ngannou way sooner
                      Fury has a much better KO% than many fighters considered big punchers.

                      He can crack when he sits down on his shots, which he didn't do for a long time due to his style.
