Key here is McGregor should not have lasted 10 rounds against the so-called best fighter in the world.
Not every fighter is the same, be it the boxer or the MMA guy. There are likely other combinations of eite boxers vs MMA guys in boxing that would last longer and be competitive than they "should" because of the stylistic match up. Ngannou/AJ was just not one of them.
May was a dozen years older

McG would have smashed Pac
I reckon Manny would have smashed Connor in a more brutal way than Floyd did, Floyd gave him no respect and just walked him down Manny would have put heavy hands on him, but yeah its exactly how you said age, weight, styles, problem hands etc were all in play. You know the haters talk sht that just reflects them.

Pac didn't have an easy time of it vs Horn (of all people) and TBF, McG showed some rudimentary knowledge of boxing
But yeah.
Maybe a younger Pac would have countered McG brutally
I don't think May was in a rush to end him whereas Pac would have been.

McG > Horn, imho
I think that Horn would smash Connor too lol, Manny thought Horn was a cakewalk, got to be careful fighting big Aussies who are huge underdogs on home turf they are generally rough and ready, Connor wasn't rough house like that he tried to box and I can't help but vision Manny just bombing him, if Floyd wanted to stop him as fast as could it might have gone 4 rounds, he just decided to go 10 as that's the round he bet on.
But it's no problem for floyd as his fans will say floyd carried connor
Thats obvious, if you state you will stop a guy in the 10th by betting on it and then do that, you carried him there because if the bet was on the 8th he gets it done just the same.
