Yeah..

TKO for Mayweather in the 10th.

I didn't see it, but it sounds like McGregor was gassed and never really hit Mayweather very hard.

Yawn.

I hate that they stopped it.

Not that I think he could have pulled it out with more time, but finish the damn fight. Ugh. If McG got knocked out near the end because he was worn out, so be it. Too safe.

First 3 rounds Mc was really doing well, but in the last few it really seemed as if Maywther had saved himself and turned it on later on.

Yeah MC would murder Mayweather in MMA or a street fight.

And Usain Bolt would beat Mayweather by 4 seconds in the 100 meters.

I don't know if he was trying to stay under control and didn't release power in order to not get off balance or get caught in a counter, but I was surprised he didn't hit harder. Getting gassed like that he may not have had the power.

Endurance won

King of how I felt, but Mc definitely slowed down. For sure if an all out brawl Mc would kill him, but Mayweather kept stopping looking for stoppages. Kind of a part of boxing, little loopholes Mc didn't know or didn't exploit. Mc would kill him in MMA scrap but we all know that. Mc had a great showing in boxing though, good job Mc!

I think the judges were way off but it doesnt matter now.

Mc really did a great job boxing, not just some BS. Just couldn't hang long enough, and Mayweather could. That's why I feel Mayweather's experience helped. The call before a true KO sucked, but it probably would have got there. Still sucks for a warrior to go out when ref calls it instead of Mc getting fucked. Oh well.

Well I saved $100. It turned out as I thought.

I was blown away by Mayweather's conditioning. Fair amount of talk about the age difference, but he was clearly in better aerobic condition than McG.

Totally irrelevant, and I don't know why people keep saying it. And to be perfectly honest, I don't believe that a professional boxer getting into a street brawl with an MMA fighter would get "murdered." Not even close.

Thought it was a bit gimmicky going n, but felt legit and am happy overall. Just really wish we could have seen it go the distance, or the unthinkable let Mayweather go MMA for fight #2 for due respect to Mc. If Mayweather really fought that all our, Mc really is one hell of a rounded fighter.

Both walk out with money & with respect.

Well boxers have set rules, even Mayweather used them some in this fight. Adding legs and grappling, I can assure you it's a very different outcome. Boxing is very technical and Mayweather knows that to a T. If you don't understand that adding many dimensions beyond fist strikes to a fight changes things, well idk how to say it. Mc did a good job boxing, and if allowed to use all of MMA he would have take Mayweather in those first 3 rounds. There very much is a difference between MMA and sanctioned boxing.

For those watching the fight there were a few time Mc took positional advantage only to give it up because boxing doesn't allow gold g and taking rear advantage etc.

After listening to Connor, I changed my mind and agree that the ref should have waited for at least a knock down.

Sig Sauer P226-- sleep well, me boy.

No kidding. Which is why it's completely irrelevant to even bring it up.

No, no! When I said no rules I did not mean just MMA but guns and knives are ok too. Well, maybe no guns.
