    Captain iv got outboxed by a fresh McGregor. Byrd came to Voids rescue after that dig to his body. Bottom line.

    DEAL WITH IT! Thread/

    Thank you! Why the **** didn't Byrd wave off the fight?! Floyd was doubled over and turned his back to Conor offering himself in exchange for no more beating. IT'S RIGHT THERE ON VIDEO!

    He was turning his back on McG all the time.

    It was not bad for the first time in his professional boxing career. I think. McGregor performed well even though he finally got knocked out.

    I thought that at first too but it was actually Connor going around behind him to try and mount him. The erection at the weight in wasn't for show...

    Floyd is a 40 year boxer(147 pounder) that has been retired for 2 years, that's 20-25 lbs lighter than Mcgregor. Mcgregor could have went after Ward. Or GGG. Floyd is not even ranked anymore. We are talking about a guy who is in his 21st year of the sport. Let's get real. Hell no he is not the best boxing has to offer yet he still walked down Mcgregor.

    If the ref. had not stopped the fight in that round.
    McGregor said after the post fight interview that Floyd cannot knock him down to the floor and he will never let him do that. What do you think?

    There was more than one minute left in that round and I think that McGregor couldn't survive the KD or KO. He had no legs.

    This. Floyd prefers to fight off the back foot and counterpunch, but Shane's handspeed forced Floyd to change his strategy and start pressing. Against Canelo Floyd kept beating Canelo to the punch, since waiting and countering is an easy way to get hurt against Canelo. Victor's speed and athleticism was also giving Floyd a little trouble until Roger said to back Victor up and Floyd started pressing him.

    May did indeed look extremely offended after getting hit with that uppercut.
