    It’s a great achievement if he does it, but the comparison to Josh Taylor will only really be valid when we look at his post 10 fights career. As soon as Josh Taylor had his 10th fight, the domestic clash with Davies, he jumped straight into world level and boy did he swim.

    Its a tough benchmark tbf, josh is a very special fighter. I think Lee shouldn't be compared to josh as it's unfair.

    He can't crack an egg. I agree with @f1ght3rz a KO waiting to happen the second he steps up.

    Why? He turned his back, protect yourself at all times etc

    Given Hugher had to run a cross the ring I do think he could have handled it slightly differently.

    All three involved at fault for me, Highland turning his back, ref for giving dodgy instructions, and then Hughes for hooking him from behind

    The ref was to blame for the incident and Hughes took a liberty.

    McGregor looked very impressive with a first round stoppage

    That's why I said to the clown on here yesterday that he's way ahead of Farooq. McGregor would destroy him in a rematch without a doubt. He's improving in every fight at a rapid pace.

    McGregor looked so much sharper then I've seen him before. Looked like a fighter struggling at the weight previously but his shots looked snappy and fast tonight.

    Thought Farooq won clear by a few rounds in there first fight but I remember saying McGregors shots looked like they lacked snap / weight affecting him.

    If McGregor is much better at the weight now, then I'd expect him to win a rematch and the comms mentioned he's making it better, better food, preparation etc.
