A shallow victory for boxing and deep down everyone here knows this.
      great post. its cuz Mcgregor was the first prime, athletic guy with a reach advantage Floyd has fought at 147 besides judah who was a B+ guy. Floyds career has been built on matchmaking.

            Mcgregor is not fast or explosive I said this before the fight. He only has pop when hes winding up against guys with zero defense or skill

                At least McConor is out of our sport. Half sport? Take that back to UFC!

                  I was laughing my ass off for about 85% of that fight. It just looked so weird. McGregor looked like some old pugilist from the 1800's.
                  Hes a throwback fighter. Cross betwee bruce lee and willie pep tonight

Conor gassed out and Floyd took over. Do you really think Floyd enjoyed getting his head snapped back by jabs and getting countered when he threw shots in the first few rounds by some novice boxer so he could make some buffoon like you happy? Lol, don't be a simpleton.
                    Youre a ****ing moron. Not even wasting my time, go **** yourself

                      Those youngsters who never saw PBF in action...you saw it tonight. And the same thing would have happened if Floyd had fought like that against Manny, but with a higher connect percentage.




                      McGregor fought a LOT like Tyson Fury: used the jab to keep distance, pivoted to cause Floyd to reset, switched stance off the jab, etc. I wonder if Fury secretly trained him, that's how identical he looked.

                      In any event that's how Floyd's always fought. He uses the early rounds to figure you out, then picks you apart.

                      What I totally didn't see coming, and I need to change my sig since I did call it a long time ago, was McGregor's head movement evading the right hand counter and pull counter early on. Told ya'll that hat dodge was no joke
                      I think he looked exactly like Fury. I think thats just the Irish style they learn across the pond..
