Comments Thread For: Mayweather Admits He Carried McGregor, Slams De La Hoya

I think most level headed people that watched the fight felt Floyd carried Conor given the fact he barely threw anything the 1st 4 rounds. There are those that disagree.

I think where we all can agree ODH asking to fight Conor after all the criticisms he made shows what kind of coked up ****boy he truly is.

what a bum!! so he basically gave up??? he didnt even try?? even nate diaz did better against conor! lmao!!!

so just because of this, he threw his best weapon away (defense)?? one of the smartest boxer with the highest ring iq, decides to fight dumb?? LOL!! why not just make conor miss? why be a brandon rios for??

It was his last fight and either way he was riding off into the sunset with 2- 300+ mill. Why not change up a bit against a lesser opponent?

To me personally. Rd 4 he turned the dial up and the whole fight changed. His plan was to make Connor blow his load. So there are two things that have to happen here.

1. Figure Connor out first. Dude was a very unique fighter and not throwing the type of punches boxers usually throw. So Throw certain punches and see how well connor responds. rds 1-3

2. Implement your game plan. Walk into his chest to eliminate his reach forcing the pitty Pat punches, go to the body, make him move all around the ring. Wait out 25 mins....end the the fight. Rd4- 10

I wouldn't call it Brandon Rios, Id say it was the "take him into deep waters and drown him" method that was used

why does he need to figure out a fighter who he doesnt respect in terms on power??? LOL!!! so it took him rounds 1-3 to realize that his doesnt respect conor's power?

lmao!! so he wants to leave the impression of him getting punched in the first repeatedly? LOL!! not a good look if you ask me..

[IronDanHamza]

just stop it!! did he tell you that?

so when ggg did the same against brook and the ggg fans said the same that ggg walked brook down and took punches to the face because he wasnt phase by brook's power, the floyd fans said ggg got exposed for having a weak defense.........

No he didn't tell me but it's plain as day to see.

Not comparable as Brook hits way harder than McGregor but even still yeah Golovkin did have less caution against Brook as he was a lot smaller

[IronDanHamza]

so he couldnt dodge those punches?? i remember having this debate with a floyd fan before regarding pac getting hit while moving forward. the floyd fans said pac could have still move his head but he didnt..

He could have but once he discovered how poor McGregor is and how soft he hits he didn't even need to. Just walked in a straight line with his hands up and McGregor had no answer because he can't box.

Shiddd that uppercut was Rd three I believe lol. That was the hardest cleanest punch of the fight up til that point. He was a man with a 20 -25 lb weight advantage on floyd. Youve said repeatedly yourself that this is the most defensive and cautious boxer. So why not? It's not like a bunch of Connors punches were clean hits. Add the fact Floyd is 40 and had been out the ring 2 yrs.....is it really that inconceivable? Test out Connor a few rds. Shake off ya ring rust, proceed with plan to tire him out and stop him?

and you would know this because??

brook might hit harder than conor, but to ggg, it might have little effect on him. why is it not poissble yet you're here justifying it for floyd?

so floyd let conor punch him at well because he had no respect for conor's punches, but when ggg fans said the same about ggg vs brook, you shot it down?? LOL!

excuses excuses.

yes, i said he was a defensive and cautious fighter and now you're telling me he let conor punch him because he had no respect for conor's power. that just goes against what his fans have been building him up to be, the best defensive fighter of his era.

[WesternChamp]

see what i mean LOL!! that doesnt mean he couldnt dodge those punches, after all, he's the best defensive fighter right? excuses after another. so the smartest boxer with the highest ring iq (in his fans words) decides to fight dumb???

if his plan was to let conor tired out, wouldnt making conor miss, tired him out quicker?
