    I'd agree if the MMA community saw it that way but from what I've seen they think McGregor has a chance of actually winning.

      Jusdges score rounds.

      Everyone got the point of the thread, you think you're being clever but the point flew straight over you.

        Nothing went over my head. In order to score rounds there has to be punches. You are splitting hairs for whatever reason.

          Pot, meet kettle.

            of course they feel conor has a shot at winning but that still doesnt change the fact that even if conor lands 1-2 punches on floyd, it will be a win for them because floyd is suppose to be the defensive wizard of this era.

            for example, if floyd went and fought conor in the ufc and floyd was able to take conor down a few times but ends up losing the fight. you dont see this as a positive for floyd/boxing considering he has zero experience in mma?

              Absolutely not and I know for certain they don't see it that way.

              The fact is if McGregor landed a punch on Mayweather or Floyd managed to tackle McGregor to the ground in an MMA fight neither would be that impressive. Floyd is hittable and little children and women with zero fighting experience know how to "take somebody down." That didn't become more glamourous the moment MMA adopted it as a gimmick for their sport.
