Was that Floyd's exact game plan? If so, do you think he bet money on winning in the 10th round?
-
McGregor simply ran out of gas in the 7th.

Waiting and defending against the initial barrage /weathered the storm until Conor gassed? Definitely.
If Conor had better cardio this wouldnt have happened.

Would you say that Money went so far as to plan a specific 10th round win, and put a lot of his nickname down on a bet? That would be a way to make quit a bit of cash.

mcgregor good jab, but no power with left hand, wtf

Mayfly was on defence-mode during the first three rounds when mcgregor had most power, but he lost it as he faded.

wen may started going foward with his power block gregor could have side step body punch ....this was the fight ender

Conor is STILL my boy! - Chris Weidmans father

Mcgregor should have tied up with Floyd as those punches were coming at him. Mistake to just pull away like he did, allowing for the ref to wave the fight.
-
Conner looked like a horrible amateur. Getting knocked out by Floyd is really an embarrassment. Someone with punching power would have KOed him early.

Manny P would have absolutely DESTROYED Mcgreggor. Knockout in under 3 rounds for sure.

He may have been on defense/ cruising but he was moving forward. That's not the way he usually fights. He knew what he was doing and his dad told him to get more aggressive in 4.

All we learned is that boxers will beat MMA guys in boxing, and MMA guys would beat boxers in MMA.
Easy fight for Floyd.

He is a amateur!! This was his first boxing match ever. And landed some good shots.
And made 100 million dollars

He's got years of training as in throwing punches. Not putting him down but he sucks as a boxer. He won't box again. As far as the money well it didn't help him fight any better all it showed was someone was smart enough to hype this farce up enough to make a killing.

No he wasn't....Floyd carried him most of the fight to maximize his payday....in addition to teaching him a lesson for being arrogant and not taking him seriously. If he finished him too early, he would not have gotten that much.

Anaerobic (McGregor) vs. Aerobic conditioning (Mayweather) McGregor won the first three after that it was all Mayweather. Middle of the 7th McGregor was an early version of Roy Nelson. Could barely hold his hand up plus he carried too much muscle.

This was ( in part ) a Mayweather promotion and Floyd made it last so the fan enjoyed the fight. This was a walk in the park for FMJ and the loudmouth was TKO'd.

Yep.

After using the link from TA's thread to watch the fight, I just bought it to watch the replay. Yeah, it was $99.95 CAD (like $60 USD), but it's nice to watch it in HD. It took like five rounds to get the pirate link streaming nicely, so I'm going to kick back now and watch the full fight.
As for spending the 100 bucks on it ex post facto, I have a bit of a guilt complex when it comes to downloads, I guess. Possibly due to autism.
All we learned is that boxers will beat MMA guys in boxing, and MMA guys would beat boxers in MMA.
Yes, but McGregor went 80% for the distance. Mayweather would almost definitely not go 80% of the distance with McGregor in an MMA fighter, and I think this disparity would hold for the average fighters of both sports too.
Easy fight for Floyd.
As it was for McGregor too. I'm sure this fight was easier for him than most of his MMA fights were.

Great post!
I'm disgusted with Jim's comment. Does a person need to be one of the best boxers in the world to not be considered an amateur?
Again, I'm disgusted with Jim's comment.

It's a little more than muscle mass. Conner didn't train for 20 rounds. His handlers are idiots.

That's the conditioning part and yes I agree, his handlers were idiots.

Anyone who bought this just paid into the annoyance of modern sports. This was never going to be a competitive boxing match. Everyone knew it yet millions I'm sure paid to watch it. ???
-

I watched Conner train. He was always out of breath more than I would have expected even for a MMA fighter. I wonder how much weight he put on after the weigh in. He looked winded after the second round.

That question was asked. He said about 170. So 17lbs since weigh ins

Yeah, well - I'd beat both of them if they entered the Canadian Nationals for amateur strongman in the 170-lb class with me next month.
And that's the point -. they train for different sports.
But in an MMA FIGHT, McGregor would beat Mayweather - and Brian Shaw for that matter. So I think it's safe to say that even though both are better at their respective sports, McGregor crossed over more successfully than Mayweather would ever be able to - and that's worth something.

Matt, just a reminder, this is not about you. You shouldn't have to insert what you are doing (specifically the strong man stuff) into almost every post.
You could say, "Well, they both would lose to someone doing a strong man contest, because they don't train for that." This way, you don't mention yourself, but you made a valid point.

Conner has years of boxing experience under his belt Floyd has zero grappling under his so no it's not worth anything so your point is mute. You're acting as if Conner "crossing over" is some big feat. Conner is a loud mouth that got his ass handed to him by a 40 year old retired boxer albeit arguably one of the best ever.

Good point. It's just nice to FINALLY get to compete in my own weight class. Meanwhile, the first time I get the chance, I'm Nationals-qualified,
Which leads me to another point - I was doing ok in the 200-lb and 210-lb weight classes locally, but as said above, in my own class, I got a ticket to Nats on the first try. This leads me to believe that no matter how good someone is in their own (lower) weight class, they will get beaten by an equally good, heavier competitors.
So for instance, Georges St-Pierre could most likely be beaten by any/every heavyweight fighter. Roy Nelson is a decent fighter, but isn't known by a lot of people, and his fights aren't big draws or anything. Meanwhile, he would likely beat GSP with no major issues.
That really puts things in perspective. There are probably heavyweight MMA fighter and boxers who will never go far in their sport, yet could beat GSP or Mayweather,. thanks to their body weight advantage.
But regardless I'm sorry, Parker - you have the right to be disgusted with my comment. I won't bring up Nationals in any other unrelated topic until I compete in it next month.
I wonder if McGregor regrets doing the fight at 170-lb? Considering he weighed in at 153...I guess after the weigh-in he decided that he would ratherbebig.
Incidentally, after paying $99.95 CAD for the fight replay, it stopped working after the third round, LOL. So I'm watching the replay. Hopefully it stays online for a while so I can read the comments and discussion.

Again, I'm disgusted with your comments, Jim. Much like I was disgusted when King Kamali doxed you in MuscleMag.
As to my point being mute, heh, I really don't consider this to be a fight where Mayweather handed McGregor his asshole. McGregor won the 1st round for example, and Mayweather has beaten actual professional boxers faster than he did McGregor.
Again, Mayweather did not hand McGregor his asshole so, IMO, your point is moot.

Mmmm, that last part. Yes he did. Mayweather let McGregor win the first 3-4. 4th round the fight became legal.After that it was all Mayweather. If the fight went on McGregor would have been dead.

Dead? Mayweather does not have the power to knock you or I out, let alone McGregor. Would McGregor have lost by decision? Yes. Or had the fight gone on, would McGregor have lost by a less debatable TKO? Yes. But are you suggesting McGregor ran the risk of being punched so hard that he could have actually died?
Again, I'm not saying McGregor would have won this fight, I'm just saying I don't think Mayweather handed McGregor his asshole as Jim stated.

Conor did better than I thought he would though. For example, to see McGregor lay waste to Mayweather was really cool to see!!
In 2006, Sarcasm and some others stated that Ronnie Coleman would have have been able to beat Mayweather. He said for Ronnie, Mayweather would be like a mosquito.

The fight was stopped when Conner didn't throw a punch in the last minute of the fight and Mayweather was landing at will. Maybe you watched a different fight. Conner was handed his ass and his loud mouth was finally shut. I do wish the ref would have let it go further as a bunch of knockdowns would have been fun to watch. I'm disgusted at you lack of knowledge and perception. Stick to what you know best whatever that may be.

conor sets up his punches in mma with his leg kicks, if this was a bare knuckle fight the outcome may be diff (boxing glove pillows blocking every shot)
but damn, he had no power, i was wondering if he was just playing around in the before sparring sessions, but damn, his power is overly overrated in ufc

I noticed that too. Conner got one good punch in which was a not so flush uppercut. Everyone thought 8oz gloves was going to work in his favor but Floyd knew he would have an easier time knocking Conner out in the end. Very smart move on Floyds part.

Not sure why anyone expected any other outcome. It was a novelty fight, nothing more.

props to the corona ring girls, it takes a lot of stamina to stand still in the post fight press conference for so long over 1 hour and 20 minutes!

Last round:
-
All things considered the little potato did fairly well.

Do you guys think that they will try for a rematch under MMA rules?
Think about it.....Many people want to see Floyd get smashed, and losing an MMA bout would not blemish his boxing record.
As eye rolling ::) as it sounds, they would be fools not to consider it.

I think Mayweather will agree to a rematch using modified MMA rules. He'll gross a few hundred million $ from the boxing match and would exceed that amount in the octagon.
He would keep his boxing record intact and laugh all the way to the bank.
I actually think they're good friends and have planned this.
-
Did anyone here really expect a different outcome?
Ridiculous clown show.
-
Dumbass move. Again his handlers are buffoons.
so you'd say staying closer to your real weight is better?
I'd say if you are a power puncher it's best to manipulate your weight as much as fucking possible, coz if you are much bigger than your opponent in the ring you can use your size and strength advantage very well, to your advantage since it's highly likely you'd be able to ko him out within 3-4 rounds
-
Anyone who bought this just paid into the annoyance of modern sports. This was never going to be a competitive boxing match. Everyone knew it yet millions I'm sure paid to watch it. ???
Will people ever learn? I didn't buy it and never would. Just by watching McGregor's shadow boxing, etc. in the leadups, etc. to the fight you could tell he was going to get crushed. Looked awkward as Disgusted posted.

I think training for this fight will help Connor going forward in MMA. We all have seen Connor's main weakness, besides a lack of a ground game, is his cardio. He gassed in the second round against Diaz, which cost him the fight. Assuming this wasn't a carefully crafted fix, McGregor actually lasted for about 6 rounds before he started to get gassed. That is a major improvement.
No matter how talented McGregor is, he needs to know that his opponents have his weakness down. Take him to deep water and watch him drown.

of course he would win, pro boxer against loud mouth MMA type

As I said, I remain disgusted by your comments, Jim. McGregor was moving no differently than he was in the Diaz 2 fight, and had no problem absorbing Mayweather's wussy punches, while dodging the rest. He just needed to do that for the last minute of that round and then he would have had steam again in the 11th round. Do I think he could have made it go the distance? With an increased flurry from Mayweather, it's hard to say - but he could have at least made the 11th round.
It was lovely seeing McGregor lay waste to Mayweather in approximately half of the rounds!
-
All things considered the little potato did fairly well.
He did "fairly" well cause mayweather let him to fairly well, if he wanted to KO him in the beginning rounds he would have easily done it. Putting on a show and letting fans that paid money live and pay per view have a little entertainment and getting their money's worth was what mayweather was doing

Hahahahahahaaha what he needed to do and could do are two different things. He needed to keep his hands up when Floyd was punching him in the face at will but he couldn't even do that. Floyd can still hang with anyone because of his superior defense Conner on the other hand would have gotten knocked the fuck out against a good amateur. Conner was the mouse last night and his big mouth got shut.

Most likely - nonetheless he's not a boxer.

Lets be real here.......Mayweather rope a doped McGregor for the first 3-4 rounds. Again, assuming that the fight was on the up and up, Floyd dictated the fight from beginning to end.

A well-placed hammer to the breadbasket was all that was needed.

I would give credit where credit is do but in this case Conner is horrible as a boxer. I agree Floyd was in control from beginning to end. If he fought in the weight class he actually weighed in the ring he wouldn't last one round. I think even Conners handles fell for his shit talk and thought he had a chance in hell.

Laying waste? Mayweather looked stunned one time. Only reason Conor even won the first few rounds is that Mayweather let him punch and blow his wad. By the 4th round Mayweather out-boxed him 10 punches to one. Conor barely survived the 9th and you are smoking some good shit if you think he would have survived another minute of brutality and bounced back. He barely threw a punch last few rounds
-
99% of the people who knows shit about boxing fell for the hype. No way I was paying for this fight. Conner should retire he's also no spring chicken at 29 in MMA he's pretty much done. Thanks
-
im sure mayweather WANTED to be punched over 100 times ::)
i bet he LOVED that uppercut he got in the first round ::)
-
I don't entirely agree with those who say Mayweather controlled the whole thing. I think McGreggor landed some good punches early and acquitted himself admirably based on my expectations. I figured he'd get whipped in under 3 due to the much greater speed of Mayweather. But Maywaether fought the smart low risk fight.
Glad this settles: 1) the MMA v Boxer question; and 2) the "what would really happen to Rocky" question.

WOW boxer beat MMA fighter in boxing!!! SHock. Cant believe some of you idiots on here "trust me COnor will win by the 4th " hahah clowns, go back to thinking your tough cos you got big biceps
Yeah but how would Tyson do in DA CAGE!!!
This was never a fight, it was never going to be a fight. You guys bought into the hype. MattC bought into it twice paying for the replay of the fight after he watched it.
I'd love to see how Connor would do against LeBron or Steph in a one on one game. Or how he would cover Julio Jones, hit a fast ball off Verlander, etc.....
Remember when everyone here thought Rhonda Rhousey would beat Flyod? Grow men posting videos of her submitting other male fighters convinced she was more dominate.....
::)
About the only thing I'm sure of is Connor would beat MattC at the strongman Canadian nationals. :)

I'm certain the advertised it as a boxing match.
If Connor was scheduled to race Usain Bolt in a 100 meter sprint and he lost would you defend him and say he's not a track athlete?
-
conor did awesome!!

Undoubtedly bro.
You could take Connor and Matt's weight together and likely beat them combined.

Circus act, nothing more... Mayweather should stay retired for good, and McGregor go back to his domains...

still gotta post up a vid of me striking da heavy bag, show off my straight right and my powerful uppercuts
my straight left is better, but my hooks are only so-so :-X
-
well if wasnt as exciting as bodybuilding i must admit ::) ::) ::) ::) ::) ::) ::)
-
Looked like two children fighting on a playground. I fell asleep in the fifth round and woke up in the seventh. Boring fucking fight. Ref was too trigger happy to make this fight more about him. Should have let Mayweather knock him out cold.
-
ref was very good
the fight was exciting!
-
I guess in the future any crossover MMA fighters should treat a boxing match as a 5 round fight. Floyd knows the max an MMA fight can go is 25 minutes and he takes every fight 10-12 rounds. In retrospect I guess it's easy to see what the plan was.
-
yes funny how there's no changes or no compromises.
conor is just supposed to go from the cage to the ring.
and there awaits mayweather who just need to do what he always been doing, not a single thing different.
and yet people blame conor for not putting up a better fight...
let's put a guy who once in his career fought 5 rounds against a guy that fought for 12 rounds nearly every fight for 20 years.

My answer honestly is Conner never had a chance but to be breathing heavy after the first round is pityful. Like I said before Connor seemed to have no endurance even when he was training for the match. Maybe his handlers instead of thinking he was God should've trained him correctly and stopped with all this bullshit running under water and other high-tech stuff nonsense they had him do.

There's literally nothing Connor's trainers could have done differently that would have changed the outcome of the fight.

alright Bro, thanks for the feedback
but I was kinda thinking of myself going down from say 142 to flyweight which is 112 losing than in less than 12 hours and gaining weight to all.back by fight time
I got good speed and awesome power and pretty good stamina so I'djust swarm Iinside on these little dudes and nail them with r hard ass body shots and knock their heads off with my deadly uppercuts
wouldn't need much stamina coz if I got inside and nailed them with the body shots and uppercuts if would be good night sweet prince for them within 3 rounds 8)

I got good speed and awesome power and pretty good stamina so I'djust swarm Iinside on these little dudes and nail them with r hard ass body shots and knock their heads off with my deadly uppercuts
wouldn't need much stamina coz if I got inside and nailed them with the body shots and uppercuts if would be good night sweet prince for them within 3 rounds 8)
These gimmicks don't even try to be the least bit creative anymore.

Hahahahahahaaha what he needed to do and could do are two different things. He needed to keep his hands up when Floyd was punching him in the face at will but he couldn't even do that. Floyd can still hang with anyone because of his superior defense Conner on the other hand would have gotten knocked the fuck out against a good amateur. Conner was the mouse last night and his big mouth got shut.
If McGregor is considered an amateur by boxing standards, does that mean there are a lot of amateurs that can last ten rounds with top pros?
I guess the disparity is ultimately not that large then.

If Floyd has money on it going to 10 then, yes.

Mute point. Just because you go from ameteur in one fight to pro in another doesn't mean you are all of the sudden a better fighter.

Heh, I thought that was maybe what happened.

Could most amateurs last that many rounds with Mayweather?
This fight was better than the Manny vs. Mayweather fight.

when boxing is bad it sucks.
the problem is that when boxing is good, it kinda sucks too.

Depends on the fighter. Tyson as an ametuer could of and did plowed through every pro once he turned.

Facts are facts. Again, Floyd played with him for the first 3 rounds and let him win. It's the fourth round that made the fight official and thats when Floyd started to light his ass up after that it was all down hill for McGregor, very little punching power did nothing to hurt Mayweather....NOTHING! Look close at the 6th round and you see thats where McGregor started to gas. This ain't MMA where you can take guys to the ground to recover. McGregor would have NEVER recovered and only got more gassed as the rounds went on.
Here's what I'm going to say that McGregor fans won't like. If he's going to switch to boxing he's to make a decision to either stick with MMA or stick with boxing, it's can't be both and if he decides to stick with boxing he has to prove himself in the amature ranks. McGregor couldn't have went the distance let alone win even in any of the prelim fights against ANYONE that fought, winner or loser.

Conor wanted the $100 million
Conor ain't concerned with anything else that you typed

You're probably right.

You lose your ass on Mcgregor?
-
The ref was good. You can see watching the clip that was posted a few pages back, that Floyd didn't really want to hurt him. Mayweather was in a weird place where he didn't want to tee off on him (like Mercer did to Morrison), but he couldn't go any easier or it would really look fixed. Best to let the ref save Mcgregor.
-
The winner was both fighters, walking off with mad cash.
We are the losers, getting a half baked fight
-
I would let Floyd beat my ass for $100 million.
Not sure if I would let him fuck me.

Did anyone else find it odd that Mayweather shoved Conor after the bell at the end of the 3rd round (possibly 4th round)?

complete farce mayweather pssed around to prolong the fight. mcgreggor couldn't out strike nate diaz over 2 fights in the octagon but he's somehow gonna be competitive against one of the best lb for lb boxers of his era. the interest in the fight just shows how stupid the general public are.
-
people wanna see how an mma guy would do against a boxer.
this is no more strange than in the beginning of ufc, karate against wrestlers etc.
-
HOLY SHIT! :o
just watched a clip of the fight on jooooootube
and mcfaggor can't even throw a proper punch :D
almost as bad as pudz's punching technique lol

brendan won over 100 000 dollars betting on mayweather mcgregor

I still cant believe some of you were stupid enough to think thick Mick was gonna win his first ever pro boxing match against the best boxer of the last 25 years whos unbeaten, dumbasses!

Compared to the other boxing matches on the undercard
The main fight was pathetic- not a patch on any of the previous fights
Mayweather did his best to prop up mcgregor for as long as possible
And made himself look awful while doing that.
Got rid of him as soon as he got tired of the charade
And some folks paid large sums of $ - were they really that dumb to
Believe it was going to be proper top notch fight.... ::)
Mayweather wouldn't fight mcgregor in a MMA fight
It wouldn't last 1 minute
Pathetic event.

Oh God. Shut the fuck up. Conor made $100 million. Floyd made $300 million
Go cry like a bitch somewhere else.

Very well done to them both for earning that enormous amount of $
I never mentioned or criticised the amount of $ they got
Only how Pathetic a Non Fight it Was.

Floyd carried him. Conor doesn't have boxing power because he lacks the technique. Boxing cardio
aint no joke. You cannot get it in one training camp. Had he fought Miguel Cotto who fought on the same
night at the same weight class, Conor would have been brutalized. Probably in the first round but certainly
before the end of the 3rd.
Believe me, Floyd may have slipped a little which is to be expected of a forty year old who hasn't competed
in two years. But trust me if he had been in with someone he considered a real threat, Floyd wouldn't have
gotten touched like he did.

mcfaggor couldn't throw a proper punch
I was shocked when I saw it
Christ! I was throwing proper punches within a few weeks of being taught

If's & buts -- Has he said that is his intention
If he did it would likely last more than a minute
Couldn't you figure that one out yourself ::)
-
Conor sets up his punches with his leg kicks, those boxing gloves are a fucking shield, I'd pay to watch boxers fight in small mma gloves (so they can't block shots)
-
Conor wanted the $100 million
Conor ain't concerned with anything else that you typed
So you are saying that he didn't want that $300 millions for winning, so he fight like an amateur and take that $100 million instead of easy victory and $300 million? Really? ;D

McGregor DESTROYED Mayweather in the first three rounds!!!

your right there.
once they pay taxes, agents, hangers on etc etc etc they will probably see about 25%, which is still a lifetime of money, well it would be for any of us
-
thing with conor is he is the ultimate showman. even though he sucked in the fight(although staying up for 10 rounds was good for his first even if maywether carried him.
he sold the pre fight alot better than mayweather imo, in the end it's entertainment as much as it is sport.
hell I couldn't have gone 1 round with mayweather even if he let me, and neither would 100% of this board, well except for Darren Avey and DJ181, and Jason Blaha

It's lucky for Mayweather that the fight with Darren Avey wasn't sanctioned.

If all my friends were given a million dollars, half of them would spend it in the first year - of the other half the that would attempt to manage it, I suspect only half of that half would be successful beyond the three year mark.
In other words, 75% of my friends could be given to 25% of the purse given to Mayweather or McGregor and spend it all. :P. And fast...

He's not that strong, so I'm sure there are plenty of local amateur fighters who could go more than a round with him. What about just strong fit guys? Or how about very strong people, like those from World's Strongest Man? Would they last a round?

McGregor DESTROYED Mayweather in the first three rounds!!!
How? Maywather take all of his punches while standing, and continue beating him for next 7 rounds winning the fight, so in fact McGregor didn't hurt him at all. You see, in the real world if you are destroying a boxer, you knock him out or drop him on the floor few times, breake some bones or make him bleed. Only in the childrens fantasy land you can destroy someone to make him sweat by sucking up his punches up to 10 rounds.
