Irony is completely lost on NSB.

Some Floyd fans have now become GGG fans.

It's the same guys that were clowning GGG fans (and rightly so) for saying he "lets fighters hit him to make it a drama show". This would usually be followed with "face-first brawler", "no skill", "it's about hit and don't get hit" etc etc.

Now lots of those guys are saying he was letting Conor hit him flush, like the left uppercut he walked onto?

Newsflash; no top level fighter lets other guys hit him for a laugh.

Not even Rios, and that guy is a functioning ******.

GGG dropped his hands in the both the monroe and wade fight and said hit me. If you can't see that then you are blind. Sorry.

Floyd is old and past it

Floyd was coming off layoff

Connor doesn't have proper technique and awkward

That's how he tagged floyd "a little" with his weak ass punches

Floyd was never in trouble, never hurt

Conor was never a threat so floyd just walked him down

Floyd goes forward more vs southpaw

Going forward also helped vs Conor weird, amateurish awkwardness

When you fight in the style that Floyd fought, you will get hit especially if the guy across from you is longer, bigger, and has reach over you. If Floyd respected Conor's power, he wouldn't have fought like that. He wasn't taking any punishment so why not come forward and throw out your regular style.

I played D-II college basketball and my son plays high school ball. His friends always challenge me and sometime I like to let them score just to sap some of that young energy out of them before I start bombing them. Floyd did the same to Conor.

oh look, evidence that this ****tard still DKSAB.

Newsflash caulk boy, pro fighters can, and do let themselves get hit if they feel no threat.

Step into a gym sometime b1tchboy.

Red K for lowering the collective IQ of NSB

lol Floyd pressured him because it would have been much harder to try and outbox the taller man whos left handed and awkward, and most importantly knew how to use that reach.
He pressured him, gave it to the body and it paid dividends in the later rounds. Thats all there is too it.

There's a difference between testing power and allowing yourself to get hit (ala Mayorga).

Floyd tested McGregor's power. This is evident by the infamous tap jab and the fact Floyd made NO effort to dodge it. That's why he's smiling - there was nothing to worry about.

That jab didn't even land, lol.

[HanzGruber]

Lol he didn't let him hit him with the uppercut. It was a pretty slick punch. Most of the punches that Conor landed were pitty pat or rabbit punch hammer fist lol. Of course he'll land some punches. But Floyd threw like 20 punches total for the first 3 rounds

Prob the weakest puncher Floyd has faced in 10 years

[ELPacman]

I believe Floyd did let Conor hit him. Mostly because he changed his style a bit in this fight to be more aggressive, come forward. Of course he didn't necessarily want to take the punches if he didn't have to. Floyd was nearly completely flat footed in the entire fight and obviously going for straight power punches once Conor fatigued. This gave Conor the most chances anyone has had against Jr. and he capitalized on what he could.
