How many rounds will Floyd carry McGregor? I say 4.

Is it just me, or does anyone else hope that McGregor gets frustrated and decides to go MMA on Mayweather and roundhouse him to the head?
That way they both lose...best case scenario IMO

Ref stops it in the 10th. Favor Mayweather. No knockdowns.

I was pissed. This is why I grew up on boxing and hate it now. Let a MF'er get KO'd like the good old days. 1 more round and the Mick would have been obliterated!

That was easy money for Mayweather....

From the highlights I saw, Mayweather barely broke a sweat

Pretty good overall. Floyd let McGregor punch himself out. Stamina was the key. McGregor knows all these submission moves and such but he didn't seem to have much leverage in his punches. If he did, maybe a different fight. I thought the ref stopped the fight at the right time. I'm not so sure the good ole days is the way to go when fighters after their careers have brains like scrambled eggs and cant complete sentences. Floyd fought everyone early in his career. Kind of picked his spots later. Great fighter. Even better businessman telling the Arums and the Kings to go intercourse themselves. Admittedly not the greatest person on the planet.

Don't most of them start out that way?

Teddy Atlas was fantastic in the post fight commentary on ESPN

i just saw that one guy got $100 million and the other $30 million for the ten rounds and they will probably do it again for more money!

Went a little longer than I expected and Conor had a pretty good strategy going into the fight and was surprisingly controlled. Once that right hand got tired of being up though Floyd went to work pretty quickly.

The guy hits like a little girl. Mayweather figured that out and then waded right through McGregor's best punches with utter contempt.
