      He also said that the stoppage was good and Floyd was effing him up and if it continues was going to F him up bad.

      Kenny Florian is also a respected MMA guy and concluded that Floyd was playing with Conor the first few rounds. Gave Mayweather tons of props and respect.

        He Honestly did throw alot of arm punches. Doesnt have good boxing technique. His left hand in MMA looks pretty decent. He might have OK power at best. As in not completely feather fisted like Paulie

            You're right. Rogan's a MMA fanboy who doesn't appreciate the skill of boxers. I remember a few years ago him saying that UFC fighters were way more skilled than boxers, even though Brock Lesnar went to the UFC from pro wrestling and won their HW title within his first year in the sport. He gave Conor a good chance to beat Floyd and was saying stuff like he has fought tougher guys etc SMH.

            In general I like Rogan and his podcast is good but his boxing knowledge is pretty awful. He shouldn't run his mouth about something he's not educated on at all.

              You don't have 18 stoppages out of 21 victories all within the first two rounds by having feather fists.

                it's not ez to throw hayemakers in a boxing ring, maybe someone should explain that to joe rogan. conor can fight like this in 1910, but not in 2017. conor however showed he has other qualities, he has a solid jab and is a good counterpuncher. he also knows how to avoid inside fighting, at least as long as he is not tired then he starts clinching . let's see if he will try it one more time in the future, but diana white will probably make sure he gets destroyed by khabib before leaving the ufc again. he should just focus on boxing and ignore mma, then he can become a champion.

                  Clearly you do because Conor definitely has no power at all.

                  Mike Perry is the same, 10-1 10 KO's in MMA.

                  Boxing? No power.

                    It's alright knocking guys down in UFC but they're doing half the work for Conor by steaming into his shots head first.
                    Nah, a stamina issue purely. Conner just gasses after a few really hard shots.

                    He should have threw the straight left more, with more authority

                      MMA power doesnt translate to boxing power.
