It was a good punch, and yes Floyd was hurt and was trying to play it like a low blow, but it was on the belt. Idk what the hell Conor did in the follow up grabbing him.

Why did the ref stop the action?? I am confused. Body shot, floyd calls for TO?
Thats Floyd hurt
Uh because McGregor hopped on Floyd in some attempt to piggyback him or something. You know like in every fight, if you hold or grab your opponent, the ref breaks it up.

You're right. I just got that. He did not stop it because it was a low blow but because Conor sort of tried to hop on top of him, looks like Conor just didn't know what to do. Or instinctually went for an MMA move.
I'm going to educate you guys on boxing and the human body. The pain a low blow causes can range from a short sting to completely debilitating you.
This is how you know it wasn't a legal body shot. If you get hit with a body shot that makes you fold in half, you're not making a full recovery in 5 seconds I don't care how in shape you are.
Based on Mayweather's reaction, that was a low blow that resulted in a short sting. If a body shot were to cause that reaction, it would have showed throughout the round. He would not have been able to press McGregor and would've laid off for the rest of the fight.
Floyd has been my 2nd fave fighter after RJJ for over a decade and even I admit that punch was good and it hurt Floyd. Contrary to what people are saying though, it was neither the ref or Floyd who played Conor here, it was Conor himself for grabbing Floyd in some weird way that I don't even understand why he did that after hurting him.
