    This joker makes Paulie Malignaggi look like Ernie Shavers lol. It doesn't say much about MMA fighters and their chins if this guy is considered a big puncher and knock out artist.

    I predicted McGregor would gas. It wasn't a ploy by Floyd to let him tire himself out Floyd simply couldn't deal with his slickness and skills while he had still had gas in his tanks. McGregor totally out boxed him and made him look like a rank novice. Shameful.

    Did the fight break the previous RBR record for the most replies?

    No, not even close. Still nearly 350 posts behind the #10 RBR (Marquez Vs Fedchenko).

    It's funny reading this thread of people thinking CM was doing really good.. when it was just Floyd toying with him. He hardly landed in the rounds that people act like CM boxed Floyd's ears off.

    Floyd fought completely unlike Floyd. He didn't have to use almost any of his tricks to win this.. and he knew it. He was outweighed, outsized, out youthed... it was a 12 round fight.. no reason not to use a few rounds to let CM tire out.

    Floyd toyed with him, seriously. In the early rounds when McGregor was popping off his guard was down.....Floyd could have countered him and ended this in the 2nd or 3rd round.

    Seriously guys, we need to stop this was more obvious than Alfredo Ángulo vs Canelo

    The only cage Floyd will be seeing the inside of is the one they throw him in for tax evasion!

    You suck and relax. Just spoke the truth. Everyone knows you suck at RBR's compared to IB. That's common knowledge.

    Second. You're over here celebrating a 40 year old with a 2 year lay off not looking untouchable for a few rounds lmao

    This is what it's come down too for Floyd haters.

    Floyd's undefeated in the real world but in ESB he has the most "moral" L's in the history of not only boxing but the world lmao

    You guys are pathetic and you're grasping for little you think you can grab.

    And the kicker of all of this happens to be you still hold Floyd to a higher standard than any of your fighters you praise. All the leather you guys claim Floyd was taking, why was his face far more cleaner than Lomachenko in his last fight lmao

    You guys are pathetic. This was just a Floyd hater circle jerk bonanza because you guys are pathetic women. Simple as that. Let's see your guys make 200+ million in 45 minutes. It's not going to happen because they are not nor never be on Floyd's level. They all fall short or have already fallen short.

    Luckily your bleeding vaginas can take a break now. Floyd has had a good majority of you sore for years lmao

    And go ahead and ban you transgender trying to call me a crybaby *****. That's laughable coming from an emotional bundle of sticks like yourself. Just stop that noise. There's no tough bone in your body bro. Don't waste your time even trying.

    He outboxed and outworked him over three, but even then, Mayweather was starting to take the wind out of his sails with the straight right to the body, while making sure that he didn't get tagged with anything more than the occasional jab or two.

    McGregor deserves credit for doing a pretty decent Vitali impression, and that's a tough style to look good against, even when you win. On the whole, Mayweather handled it about as well as you'd expect a 40 year old to do, given that he was coming off a two year layoff and clearly expecting something a little different going into the contest.

    He took Floyd to school for the first 5 rounds, totally out boxed, out slicked, and outfoxed him until he ran out of gas. Floyd was the one who looked like a raw novice in there not Mystic Mac. It's hardly a secret that Mac has terrible stamina he gasses like crazy in the Octagon too. Nothing wrong with his ability to take a body shot. In fact, it's practically impossible to hurt him downstairs. Unless that is you go down to the basement ala that creep from Oakland.

    Landing the occasional upjab and period counter against Floyd over the first three or four isn't exactly schooling someone, especially when that someone clearly seems intent upon using the rounds to take a look and work out his foe. Conor won the first three, and maybe had a case for the 7th, but from about the second round on you could see Floyd dropping the straight right in to the gut in order to find the range and make certain he gassed this time around, too. Even if he wasn't hurting him downstairs, they definitely allowed him to set up the shots upstairs that landed in the later rounds.
