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

No ****.

He threw 30 punches total across the first 3 rounds.

it could also be because floyd was cautious.

i bet i wont be trying to justify my fav fighter's bad performance.

Nothing to justify.

40 year old with 2 year layoff. I mean he could've of won without being hit as much, but he was never in trouble and showed diverse attacks. Although I will always wonder about the low blow/body shot to start rd 9

No reason to be upset a 40 yr old with 2 yr layoff (who apparently couldn't even spar in camp) got a TKO win

Floyd legitimately lost 2 of first 3 rounds and I'm a huge Floyd fan. McG has awkward reach and is good at keeping guys at bay.

In the first round Floyd learned he couldn't fight from the outside and lunge in. Conor landed beautiful counter left uppercut in the 1st.

In the second he learned he couldn't box off the ropes as Conor used space well and landed the better punches.

Floyd is a great talent and identified the ***** in McG's armor which is phonebooth fighting and he took over from there.

No racism or Floyd hatred. Just honesty

Stop, it was obvious he was walking him down throughout the whole fight. He didn't try to "box" him from the outside at all. Just look at the way he fought lol

More like mcregor carried Floyd and "gassed" for I'm sure some lay down $ bonus if Floyd won. If that wasn't enough Floyd had a ref and a judge in his pocket.

guy named "low blow" claiming Floyd was saved by ref. Another casual.

For this reason I will forever have Conor's blatant low-blow in my sig below so they can't deny it

aint nobody said conor outbox floyd. but to say floyd let conor punch him in the face on purpose is a load of BS.

floyd might have "carried" conor, in the sense of not being aggressive and not pushing the pace, but then again this could be floyd being cautious too!. but to say floyd let conor punch him on purpose? lmao!!!

He let conor throw his punches and fought in the most simple way possible. He literally didn't take him serious like when have you ever seen mayweather fight like that?

Floyd is the worst thing to ever happen to the sport of boxing.

yeah but his fans is trying to make excuses for a bad performance. just stop it. he got the win and that's what matters.

i dont get why his fans feel the need to always hold him to such a high standard then get mad when other posters point out that he didnt perform that way?

If by legitimately you mean ON PURPOSE then yes. Floyd gave up the first couple rounds ON PURPOSE and simply let the with no stamina burn himself out. He was never in trouble at any moment of the fight, Conor landed ONE meaningful punch the entire fight and a low blow. He threw more hammer-fists than actual punches, you have to be really dumb to think Floyd didn't manipulate this fight exactly how he wanted it to go, other than that 1 uppercut.

He literally had his friend bet on him to win by KO in the 10th, so tell me again how it wasn't exactly how Floyd wanted it to go? If Floyd started hitting McGregor in round 1 it would not have gone to 10, it's that simple.

If anyone here actually thinks McGregor won a round due to his skill set is an idiot...LoL If you don't know boxing please stay away from this site.
