        Then you'd have no problem getting to where he got in boxing then.

          I don't know about that but I do think that Katie Taylor and Nicola Adams probably punch harder than McGregor.

            Both tried Boxing out and seemed to have the power of Pauli Malignaggi.

            Are there any other examples and did any of them show any signs of having any punching power?
            Just curious because i didnt watch that farce of a fight, but was it super obvious that Connor has no boxing punching power or was it that Floyd was able to finesse and use his defense to minimize his power.

            Im only asking this as Floyd has faced a lot of punchers throughout his career and was able to neutralize their power in a way with his defense that made their power ineffective. So can it be that Connor does have some good power but that it was neutralize or that he just has nothing?

              It was apparent from Round 1 that he has no power what so ever.

              As soon as Floyd discovered that he just walked straight to him in a straight line.

              Had no respect for his power because he has none. He doesn't even turn over his punches.

                Ok, now tell me this. How does it feel knowing you paid $100 to watch Floyd fight a guy with zero power and very limited boxing skills and who was making their pro boxing debut.

                Was it money well spent to you? If so tell me why.

                  I paid £5 pal.

                  And it was well spent because I liked seeing the MMA guy get battered and stopped by a 40 year old washed up retired non puncher whilst having 20 lbs on him.

                    What is that like $10 US. Than that's reasonable.

                    I could careless about about watching a farce of a fight. Not my cup of tea. I'm in good matchups.
