    Put it another way 90% of boxers the size of McGregor on fight night might be able to go 10 rounds vs Mayweather, don`t you get what I`m saying not only was Connor huge looking compared to Floyd his long reach was saving him all Mayweather charged in to get inside and push Connor back to tire him out 90% of boxers wouldn`t gas like that!

    I was talking about in a boxing match because Ward said Diaz did well against him.

    Why the hate thread, then? It's obvious Ward schools his ass.

    I'm never picking against Sugar Mac again after seeing what he did in there with ''TBE'' on Saturday night.

    Sugar Mac's victim Nate Diaz regularly beats up the supposed current 'P4P king' in sparring.

    In his pro debut Sugar Mac schools ''TBE'' something silly for the first 4 rounds until he gasses hard.

    And here's footage of another one of Sugar Mac's KO victims Jose Aldo giving P4P top 10 rated 3 weight champion Mikey Garcia everything he can handle in sparring.

    I don't think Elie started filming until round 14. The earlier rounds were meant to be absolutely brutal.

    @ the 6:05 mark Elie Seckbach says ''Mikey told me he (Aldo) hits as hard as Chino'' aka Marcos Maidana

    How old is Aldo? Also part of Connor`s success was his amazing reach like Tommy Hearns, McGregor couldn`t punch as hard as Tommy so I think Hearns would have stopped him at light middle.

    He's 30. I actually thought he was older than that. He hadn't lost a fight in a decade going into the Sugar Mac fight and he was the P4P king, Mac sparked him in 13 seconds.

    I think Hearns beats Sugar Mac, too. But Hearns was a monster with freakish power. Sugar Mac's more a master boxer.

    I actually agree with you there, mcgregors reach was definitely giving floyd problems early on, it's exactly why he came forward becuase he really didn't have any other choice, but to get inside.
    Out of floyd 47 previous opponent's there's only been two fighters with longer reach than him, and neither were southpaws
