    Oh well.

    The inner child in me wanted to see something extraordinary happen tonight.

    Conor dared to be great and gave a great account of himself, he boxed beautifully. If he worked on his stamina he could be a force to be reckoned with in boxing.

    Congrats to Mayweather, gone out on top!

    This ^

    But imagine what a 40 year old Roberto Duran would have done to Mcgregor. It would be a total decimation of the highest order.

    Mayweather is 40 years old, there's a reason he's fighting an MMA guy and not defending a belt against Spence or someone like that.

    I would think getting stopped by PBF would be the biggest embarrasement tbh.. Especially when you are 2 or 3 weight clases above him. Hasn't happened for how long??

    He has zero power because there is no shoulder in any of his punches . Those pitty patty triple and fourple hooks to the back of the head were like those cats you see on funniest home videos.

    Lmao, he has zero pro or amateur fights. Sugar Ray Leonard could have had him out of there earlier. Fake boxing fans are the worst.. your boy just embarrassed the sport..

    Dunno if you're being ironic? Is that the punch that the MMA crowd are frothing about? Sure doesn't look like much to me. Doubly glad I didn't give them a c-note.

    The circus is finally over! WWE is better and more legit than this crap! Let Void fight Conor with UFC rules and let's see what happens. Void vs. Conor who was 0-0-0, Void fought a non-boxer, not legit at all. I feel sorry for those fools who bought that fake fight. Conor was not even ranked.

    If he was playing, why not get him out early and tell everyone "this is my sport!"?

    If I was a baseball player, I wouldn't let a basketball player strike me out twice before I hit a homer off him and then showboat around the bases.


    Pretty much everyone figured if Conor didn't catch him with something major within the first few rounds, Floyd would figure him out. That's what happened. I didn't expect him to control the action the first few rounds, but he definitely did and deserves credit for winning his first professional rounds against an ATG. Floyd fought smart and backed up his talk of an exciting fight (for his standards) and didn't let it go to the scorecards (which were of course embarrassing as usual - how do you justify giving Floyd any of the first three rounds, he did absolutely nothing).

    Only MMA fans and PAC fans see a positive for McGregor's performance

    Nah it wasn't fixed. Conor winning the first few rounds was surprising but once I see Floyd come forward I knew it was only a matter of time.

    Quit acting like this was a 27 year old pbf dummy. This was a 40 year old slow shot pbf coming off a two year layoff and he still gave conor that work. Stay bitter hater 50-0 deal with it.

    Oh wow, the undertaker really looked like he was getting beat, but then he came back and whooped that other guy. He is a seriously impressive sportsman, he showed a lot of b*lls.

    **** you.

    I'm a Pac fan and I wasn't impressed. The fight was the garbage most of us expected it to be.
