    Floyd bet on himself under 9.5 rounds, why are people saying he dragged it out?

    Check online that he put a significant bet on himself to win under 9.5 rounds but only got the job done in the 10th

    Do people really think Floyd dragged it out until then?

        He did 9 full rounds and stopped him in middle of tenth. Isn't it 9.5?

          The truly sad part about this is a guy that was involved up to the lead of this fight was shot and killed last week for saying this was going to be staged with Conor getting koed after the 9th round!!
          Conor did not loss because he was hurt in anyway. He was fatigued if anything but he sure lost a lot of steam in the 9th round alone.
          Granted he had nothing at all on his punches after the 2nd round.

              Google it. It was just on the news the week before the fight.

                Because Floyd barely threw a punch the 1st 3 rounds, he was obviously dragging it out those 3 rounds. He KOed McGregor, don't know why people care that much which round.
