Boxing fans, explain mcgregors early success?

[GodLike]

The denial is strong, its fascinating how some people can't face reality, The ego will do anything but face its demons.

Why would he have to use a strategy like that against a guy who is 0-0?

Seems like a strategy you would use against a guy like GGG

Why would Floyd walk GGG down. He would get killed. #Cmonson.
This was the strategy he used against Judah. Pressure the a front runner. Break him mentally and physically.

The reason why Mayweather is the best is because he is humble in the ring. He utilizes game plans to win. He's willing to lose rounds to win a fight.

The game plan did not consist of floyds opponent landing more than anyone else on floyd, EVER.

This was not the game plan LOL WTF?

Conor didnt land anything but arm punches that had zero effect. If he was landing so much floyd would have stopped coming at him, the fact that he just walked through everything conor through tells you everything you need to know. He was playing with him until he got tired, no shot hurt floyd at all.

20 pounds heavier, and couldnt even hurt the "old and weak and frail man"

LMFAO at "The Sweet Science Looked Overrated" say that back to yourself out loud

A VERY Important Part to the Sweet Science is Patients! Go watch Mongoose vs Black Mamba or Cobra on Youtube it correlates to boxing so perfectly I learned this from the GREAT Roy Jones Jr and how he talks about Watching National Geographic to study how different animals catch their Prey and it does tie into the styles of boxing perfectly when you watch it:



McGregor was the PREY that yes did put up a good fight and even got in a few bites but eventually the body shots caught up with him and in the 6th Round I think it was it literally looked like somebody turned off the switch and his body

The game plan was to make him throw as much Punch as he wanted early and use all those movements early and let him Crash and Burn and that is exactly what he did!

SWEET SCIENCE!

The sweet science looked overrated. Foyd turning his back, conner landing more shots than any other fighter.

The ecuses are mind boggling, Floyd had to let an MMA fighter gas, to score the KO.

Floyd chose to stand and trade, thats that. If Floyd wouldve been mobile? Forget about it, u had people say "HE RAN for 12 RDS!"

[Metho_4u]

lolololol sure buddy.

When was the last time Floyd threw 6 punches in 3 rds? Go ahead, I'll wait...OH! Btw, let me know how many of those were clean, EFFECTIVE (as in they had to cause Floyd to do something else or hurt him) punches...k?

[Metho_4u]

How overrated did it look when 50 year old Ray Mercer ktf out of tim silvia?

[Mammoth]

Most experts didn't think Mcgregor would land a single punch...


He did more than exceed expectations

That's true. I never expected Floyd to walk him down.

[Johnny2x2x]

Bottom line is that after all that smack McGregor talked about walking the old man down and breaking him, it was Floyd who spent every second after the middle of the 3rd round walking McGregor down. If it had been the other way around people would be ridiculing Mayweather for running scared for 7 rounds.

Once Floyd decided to come forward, there was nothing McGregor could do to keep him off from him. He was relentless. The last 6+ rounds sure were fun to watch as a 40 year old 150 lb man stalked and clobbered a 29 year old 170 lb man until he could barely stand and had to be saved by the ref.
