Paulie clearly underestimated Conor's ability (he's already said as much after the first sparring session), but you're a fool if you call that "knockdown" clear, and even more of a fool in thinking that a fighter that Paulie was able to fight even with, after being retired and out of the gym for 5-6 months, wouldn't get that work after Paulie was put through the paces for a full camp.
McGregor obviously has all of the physical advantages, but don't forget that Paulie was fighting 50/50 with Conor on his second spar back in the gym. Imagine what things would've looked like on Paulie's tenth spar.Comment

The second spar had an audience; no one knows who all was there, but Dana White, Lorenzo Fertitta, Conor's regular crew, the sparring that was brought in, and others were all likely in the building.
NDAs have all sorts of clauses to them, but no one is running around, prideful of the sheer beating that Conor just put on a two-time boxing world champion, anywhere.
I know Pacquiao getting faceplanted still burns, but you've got to let that go.Comment
