    Floyd does have a great chin but McGregor isn't a puncher in Boxing, if Mosley, Maidana, Cotto, etc. hit those MMA guys clean when leaving their chins in the air with 4oz mitts they'd knock them out stone cold.

      MMA guys are just more vulnerable because their boxing skills aren't up to par. I kept saying this to MMA fans but they are everything threw that biased view. Aldo walked right into that left hand.

        Didn't McGregor say that Mayweather's brain was going to be "rattled" even if he hit him through his guard and wouldn't be able to take his punch?

          The thing is Floyd is a guy who almost NEVER get hit clean, let alone on the chin.

            conor's punches were completely off. not sure if its the boxing gloves, the big stage, or over training/drained, but he did not have any snap behind his punches. he was throwing pitty pat punches. his best punch of the night was prolly the uppercut he caught floyd when floyd came running in.

              He probably has decent power but doesn't know how to use it properly because he's not a trained boxer and therefore doesn't know how to sit on his throws.

              He'll knock out UFC guys who aren't used to being hit in the face as much as a boxer but you can't say off of that he has a lot of power.

                Conor is a weak puncher by boxing standards, and Floyd has a great chin.

                  People got taken, that was worse than WWE.

                  They were pulling their punches, no one was out to hurt anybody. A lot of suckers out there including so called experts.

                    In an interview after the fight he said Conor had solid power just not on the level of Maidana, Pacquiao, Mosley etc.

                    He isnt even the hardest hitting MMA guy. Very accurate & precise puncher (MMA standards) but doesnt have many one punch knock outs.
