first 4 rounds was all McGregor.
Floyd's head was like a bubble head snapping back over and over and you can't see who was landing cleanly early? Not to mention those clean body shots landing all night Conor was depositing.
Yes, some punches weren't that strong, but those were clean effective punches as clear as day, as Conor's punches broke through Floyd's high guard and snapped Floyd's head back over and over.
Punch connects and doing the early damage was Conor. Floyd came in agressive, but he paid for it, Conor connected over and over and defintely a strong argument can be made he got the first 4 rounds easily.
Floyd fans like you would say, Floyd did that on purposw to carry Conor. lol Naah he didn't Conor did that to Floyd coz Conor's stiff jab and long rangy arms put Floyd at bay, as Conor dissected him early.
Like I said the reason Conor lost was lack of conditioning, he was a gas guzzling Lamborghini who ran out of fuel early. Can't blame him for that, after all, he was a novice who held his own against a seasoned vet.

Wait a second...you said Floyd "came in aggressive?" The same Floyd that threw 6 punches in round 1? I think we have different definitions of aggressive lol...
You're also putting words in my mouth...the only thing Floyd did on purpose was allow McGregor to throw punches for 3 rounds because he didn't have the power to.hurt Floyd, and then walk him down while Conor pawed at him like a kitty cat from round 4 on...
Conor did ZERO "damage" to Floyd...he landed some clean shots early, but there was nothing on them...Floyd just came forward knowing he couldn't get hurt and McGregor kept backing up, and backing up until finally he didn't have the energy to back up anymore and he got rocked repeatedly...
None of those early shots (even the uppercut) had any effect on Floyd like the 2 bombs Sugar Shane hit him with early on...
Conor didn't break Floyd's high guard...Conor HIMSELF said he had no answer for Floyd's high guard...he didn't expect it, and had no idea what to do when Floyd made the switch...
You're such a Floyd hater you're making **** up that contradicts even what McGregor himself saidComment

Seems like Floyd is getting too much credit. The only credit that should be given is the fact Conor made a good account for himself stepping in the ring against boxing best. Give the guy some props, Hyped he train like no other.Comment

That said, I have to be real, With all the **** boxing purists and fans were talking. A man steps into floyd's world, out of his comfort zone and loses only cuz he got fatigued. there is really nothing to brag about . He simply beat himself..Floyd wasn't doing **** while Conor was fresh. Will we be looking at a different result if conor had good conditioning & didn't gas.??? Probably.Comment

Go look at what he said he was going to do and look at what he did do, how do you give props to a liar that didn't do sht.

That's an honest assessment.

Nothing McGregor threw early hurt Floyd...whether Conor is fresh, or gassed, Floyd makes that same adjustment and walks him down either way...
Even If Floyd did allow Mcgregor to throw punches that did zero "damage" for the first 4 rounds, the fact remains that Mcgregor was the busier fighter and was the only one fighting at that point. Mcgregor deserved those rounds and the official scorecards were once again, a joke. Steve Farhood had the correct score of 86-85 Mayweather, IMO.
Of course, it's water under the bridge because Mayweather made sure the scorecards didn't matterLast edited by Soda_Popinski; 08-28-2017, 02:11 AM.Comment

Floyd got his ass whooped in the early rounds. Conor played Floyd in those early rounds. Floyd wasn't carrying Conor. He couldn't land at all. I saw a frustrated Floyd in the early rounds. Floyd was trapped in a quick sand he couldn't get out.
Even the announcers where commenting on no foot work from mayweather, turning his back, unusual fight stance. Floyd was lost in that ring.Comment
