    He was hit by some shots he wouldn't normally get hit by. I gave Conor the first three rounds. But then again, when's the last time Floyd walked down a guy 20 pounds bigger than him? It was clearly his plan to go for the KO and wasn't afraid to get hit. He wasn't concerned about Conor's power at all from round 4 on.

    It wasn't fixed, he was fighting a guy who's got a completely weird style and the only way he could lose was by getting caught with some bull**** in the first few rounds so he was careful and wanted to see what he was up against.

    Why does everything have to be fixed?

    youre saying his ground work isnt good and thats BS, were talking about a brown belt vs a white belt FISH OUT OF WATER.
    STOP pretending like the guy who just went 10 rounds with mayweather doesnt have enough boxing defense to clinch GGG, GGGs only chance is a mid range punch and thats low percentage, if conor shoots for a single he leaves GGG no other option but to engage into grappling by sprawling..after that hes created a scramble thats completely out of GGGS world, conor would get the back clinch about as fast as he did on mayweather then REAR naked choke

    If Floyd wants to claim a big victory over a 0-0 boxer alright great for him.

    If Floyd wants to claim that he is the greatest boxer alright then how about he fights Tyson Fury? Yeah, i'd like to see that happen.

    No I didn't, I have never made a bet. The excellent odds on Floyd were tempting though haha

    He would absolutely die. Any Middleweight-Light Heavy weight KO's him within 3 rounds. If Floyd walks you down.. They kill you

    Floyd looked like a poor man's prime Joshua Clottey tonight. No legs, reflexes look 40, just has a high guard and a lead right. I think it's pretty clear Floyd knows he's a shell of himself.

    GGG has a ground game actually, he's a wrestler as well as a boxer. GGG would be at least as competitive in UFC as Conor was in boxing.

    If he fought Paulie, he would **** up Paulie. There is no doubt about it.

    There's no point for him to fight in boxing. He made MMA look good tonight and he helped MMA more than Floyd helped boxing. MMA probably gained a few fans after this.

    If he headlines any UFC ppv, he's going to set records. I don't know where boxing goes from here honestly. We'll know if boxing is can still be put on PPV after GGG/Canelo. If that fight doesn't sell well, boxing is going to be in a lot of trouble.

    I didnt see Connor throw any heavy shots. None. He was arm punching from the first round and even those punches looked weaker than your avg arm punch. Plus zero defense. Floyd wasnt even punching the first 5 rounds.

    You're a clown, 50 year old Holmes did 10x better against Butterbean. FLOYD lost the event tonight, Get over it.. I thought Floyd would have him out in 3, instead he embarrassed boxing.
