    6 is being generous to McGregor.

    Any pro boxer who is world level would finish him quickly. Floyd isn't the biggest puncher but should be able to land at will.

    Andre Berto would finish McGregor in a round or two in boxing, and vice versa.

      Just because McG is white and he ran doesn't mean Floyd didn't spend chunks of his own career running.

        First of all McGregor wasn't "on the backfoot". He TURNED HIS BACK AND RAN AWAY. That's running. REAL running.

        Second, Mayweather switched to the backfoot (REAL backfoot, still facing his opponent and throwing) whenever his hands got damaged. Go back and watch the Corley fight or the Baldomir, dude. That's exactly what happened.

        Nope. I'm saying Conor is a coward who RAN. The black fighters are strategically luring their opponent in, which is why they continue to face the opponent and defend/throw. The only black fighter who RUNS - as in, turn your back and run away - was Broner when he faced Porter.

        Mayweather/Burton was 10x better than what I saw last night, as was Mayweather/Gatti (which from a strategy perspective is the closest parallel) and Mayweather/Hatton.

        Now that's a bit extreme. I think McGregor does a Soto Karass on Berto, frankly.

          Diaz let him off the hook a bit...he toyed with him too much the last part of round 2 and most of round 3. I think he thought he had it in the bag.

              Floyd rigo etc have never actually ran away like Conor did. There's a diff between using movement and running cause you don't want to fight yet

              Have you ever seen Floyd be in one corner then walk to the other corner to catch a breather? Lol no

                Conor marked Nate Diaz up broke his nose, had his gushing blood, FLoyd didnt mark up his opponents like that. Conor gassed and turned and ran to get distance to recoup thats a lot different than running the entire fight off the back foot trying to counter a guy smh

                Conor was trading blows man, so you focus on the few times he ran out to catch his breath smh.

                I seen some MMA fights where the guy literally back stepped all night and refused to engage throwing air jabs like Floyd, Conor vs Nate was a war, yet you focus on the few times he turned and ran hahah seriously just stop this is called reaching.
