    I think Mayweather DID let Conor in the fight by being in punching range, I can admit that. Legit gave him a chance.
    BUT Conor had far more success than he should've agaisnt the 'most skilled boxer' staying in punching range.

    Casuals wont see it like that though.

    I've just been watching HLs of the fight and it was all Mystic Mac for the first 5 rounds. Floyd couldn't do nuttin' with him. Mac was actually quicker than him, and slicker and even more difficult to hit. Floyd's the one who looked like the rank novice in there. As I've said many times before, Floyd cannot deal with slickness. Floyd only started to get a foothold in the fight when Mac gassed.

    He was running from Floyd for 5 minutes. Does he do the same against Paulie when he gases?

    Questionable decisions in legitimate fights and cheaters are the only things that make boxing look bad to me. Not some WWE circus freak show.

    Wlad didn't embarrass himself when he gallantly got knocked out by AJ.

    But he did embarrass boxing when he threw his right hand 14 times in 12 rounds against Tyson Fury in a World HW title match. Trust me, a lot of casuals watched that and thought it was utterly shameful. It was really hard to defend that without feebly saying "well, Fury didn't let him find his range".

    I get that you think Floyd should have won every round, and I agree, but I don't get why you are comparing it to Wlad, when he lost... twice.

    MMA fighter who was 0-0-0 in the sport of boxing and had never been past 5 rounds before schooled 'TBE' for 5 rounds until he totally ran out of gas.

    0-0-0 MMA fighter out boxing, out slicking, out thinking etc ''TBE'' in the sport of boxing for 5 rounds>>>''TBE'' beating up on a dead man walking who was totally out of gas.

    Gigantic event win for Mystic Mac. Hold that L.

    Because Wlad was facing an absolute monster who was an actual pro boxer, a former Olympic gold medalist and world amateur runner up, a reigning HW champion who is 20-0(20) no less, whereas Floyd was facing a rank novice MMA fighter who was 0-0-0 in the sport of boxing lol

    Conor lit a fire under Paulie's ass with the whole sparring debacle. With the volume he will throw at McBum, Conor will possibly fold even earlier than he did last night!!

    My bad AJ was 18-0 (18) not 20-0(20).

    Yeah, but Wlad lost.

    And Wlad's display against Fury was far more damaging for boxing. In a world heavyweight title fight you throw your right hand 14 times in the fight. It was a stinker. Wlad owed the fans after that.

    Floyd's entire career has been a stinker. And Wlad was clearly very ill against Fury.

    And Wlad, like Mystic Mac, scored a gigantic event win.
