    i will say this about floyd,

    he has gotten much better at staying in pocket and using proper defensive technique as he's gotten much older.

    when he was younger,

    he did a lot of LITERAL RUNNING and it was being passed off as boxing wizardry by the al haymon crowd.



    floyd an ward have gotten much better at not spoiling fights these last few years....

      Rounds 3 and 5 and a bit of 4...The "Notorious" Conor McGregor literally turned his back and high tailed it in the opposite direction because he was gassed and didn't want to get mauled. THAT is running. To the point Diaz actually pointed and laughed at him.



      It was shades of Broner/Porter for a hot minute.

      Please don't confuse that with any of the stylistic presence of Rigo, or Crawford, or Floyd. Guys who stayed face forward while they lured their opponents in for counter strikes (aka sweet science).








      Conor TRIED to do that and got served quite a few times for his trouble; thus resorting to full scale running.

      As I said in the other thread, Mayweather stops McGregor inside of 6 rounds.

      ESPN analyst at the fight had Diaz winning.
      What the Fawk is your point!? Connor schooled Diaz
      Yes he was gassed but so what that's better than mayweather punching and grabbing right away
      Connor wouldn't get stopped by feather fisted Floyd but he would lose 12-0
      And FYI Floyd would get murked in the octagon by Connor but you fail to mention that in your totally biased post

          Exactly Put Diaz down a couple of times and bust him up but "HE RAN"

          I'm a Diaz fan and I had Diaz winning 3-2 but to say McGregor ran is Laughable!

                This is a boxing forum, McGregor partakes in a different sport.

                You're showing us someone from another damn sport to ease the shame of your favourite fighters running in boxing.

                    Watched it, good fight but I'm a boxing fan.

                    And it's a good thing that was a different sport

                      To be honest, that was a good fight. It was a war for the first three rounds and yes in the fourth round Conor did literally run away from Diaz. He was taking a lot of punishment from Diaz in the third round and did everything he could to stay away from Diaz and run out the clock in the final two rounds. Floyd has done some excessive movement in fights but he has never turned his back on his opponent to jog across the ring like Conor did in the Octagon last night.

                      People, for the most part, give Conor a pass because the fight was so intense at moments. But there are people online giving Conor crap for running. I don't know why you need to bring this up on a boxing forum. Most of the guys on here don't give a damn about Conor either way.
