    It wasnt mayweather turning his back. It was mcgregor doing this weird sidestep and going on floyds back. Just rewatch the fight.

      I can't believe this is only the first comment I've seen where people noticed McGregor doing this. It might not explain all 11 occasions but it definitely explains a lot of them.

        Floyd has always done this though, just not to the same degree. Always bends over to the point where no scoring areas are available for the opponent as well. But Floyd never gets official warnings or points taken away like regular fighters. He just gets told "C'mon Floyd" twenty or thirty times.

          Lol Byrd was like "stop turning your back Floyd" and "cmon Floyd" like 20 times and not a single point deduction or warning. What was that?

            I discounted the time Mac created that particular angle. If I did not it would have come up to 14 or 15 occassions.

              Maybe if you insult my posts some more, that will make up for your lack of ability to respond constructively to them.

              Why not show us some GIFs? Show us a video with references to specific times? Demonstrate to me all 11 times where Mayweather turned his back to Floyd.

              I remember after Ward-Kovalev II another user promised me 7 low blow GIFs. Still hasn't happened yet.

                This is how I saw it.

                It feels good saying this: all Conor did was run and hug the whole fight!!!!

                  Conor kept trying to take Floyd's back instead of throw body punches and clinch. I've seen you post here for years and you look like a casual right now. makes no sense.

                    Dailymotion has the fight in 720p, I'm sure you can fight 1080p versions of the fight now. Watch them and count every time Mayweather turns his back.

                    i'm not gonna make gifs, what do u think I am? Damn boy.

                    I have also stated I diso****ed the sections where Mac spun around and May stayed facing the other way. That would have brought the count up to 13 or 14.

                    Even then, a fighter should never turn his back on an opponent...ever. Boxing 101.

                    Plus a pro should never find himself in a position where the opponent his directly behind him, that only happens when A a fighter is too slow or B the fighter wants the ref to intervene.

                    At some point the ref should have given may a stern talking to and then, if it happened again, deducted a point.

                    Mayweather only managed to walk Mac down (And he certainly did that) when Mac started to tire, especially when it got really bad in rounds 8 and 9.

                    From round 1-4, somewhat 5 and 6, he looked really uncomfortable against a guy with a longer reach, quicker hands and angles. Worse than he did in maidana 1 or going back to oscar.
