Khan isnt average, he's rotten Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiddy Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 At least we can conclude McGregor having power is a total myth. He has "power" when equated to the standard he's used to competing in.That it was pretty much ineffective, is a reflection of the huge gulf in class between their respective fields.As has been said elsewhere, it's like expecting the winner of Decathlon to compete at the top of the tree, in each of the differing disciplines.

Fraser Fyvie Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 "a total myth" Well, clearly. His feather fists were laughable in there. Floyd walking down a 170lb "beast" with his arms down and no fucks given. Glorious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambomo Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Didn't manage to stay awake. Was it worth the twenty quid for those that paid? I watched it on You Tube this morning. I am glad not to have paid for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diamond_for_life Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 The arguing on here is embarrassing. Mcgregor tried to get the job done early so threw big shots early doors. Quickly ran out or energy and carried no power after 4 rounds. Mayweather doing what he does soaked up the early pressure knowing Connor would be fucked. Once that happened Mayweather knew he could just walk forward and easily break him done which he did. Connor tried to execute his plan. It didn't work. Mayweather executed his and it worked a treat. Both guys are now best of pals after the pantomime build up we get every big fight regardless of Boxing or MMA and the jobs done. They now get to wake up this morning to a cool £100 million ? And we get to wake up jump on P&B and argue about punch stats and if Mcgregor actually carries power or doesn't. Fucking living the dream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GiGi Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Just watched it. I thought it was fairly entertaining actually. I wouldn't have got it on ppv but worth watching for half an hour just to see how McGregor got on. Mayweather was just watching to see how he got on as well.

stumigoo Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Watched this after waking up (and quickly fast forwarded through 5 hours of build up and under card action). I'm not a big boxing fan and although I prefer the UFC and watch it fairly regularly I am not an expert. From my limited knowledge it was a pretty boring fight with Mayweather in total control from the first bell. Okay McGregor had a couple of moments early on but it was cruise control from Mayweather. It certainly did not live up to the hype but it was realistically never going to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BradHorse Posted August 27, 2017 Author Share Posted August 27, 2017 Rough as shiittttttt today. Well deserved, though. McGregor did alright? He was schooled, aye, but he was expected to be eh? I said he'd win a couple of the early rounds and was told to 'seek help, immediately' by a boxing w****r and he did take the first couple. He did about as expected really. Don't think he disgraced himself or anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xNicola_Ghirl1888x Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 McGregor was winning the fight until he got tired out - fact. Mayweather didnae beat McGregor, tiredness did. Hope all those boxing fans who thought it'd be pish for Mayweather feel like stupid c***s today cos it was a close fight. The best ever in boxing against somebody making his boxing debut - McGregor's the clear moral winner. There's no even an equivalent for what he's just done. What a fucking legend.
