No contest, anyone who bets against the boxer in a boxing fight between a boxer and a mixed martial arts fighter and the fight is under boxing rules is really not thinking well, the boxer will win every time. And I even bet Mayweather let the fight go this far because he wanted to.
I just saw a fighter like McGregor with some heart but whose boxing skills are not even up to the standards of a good boxer get beaten very easily by a great boxer like Mayweather.
This was just a show, no way McGregor could win, well they both got a lot of money, in that I agree with McGregor he probably knew he was no match but he made more money in this one fight than he would in a whole career in the UFC.
Well it's over now, no surprise happened, I personally thought Mayweather would let it go to the end but even in that aspect McGregor was not up to it, he wasn't really knocked out he was just so tired he couldn't fight any more.
It really kind of sucks because I don't particularly like Mayweather, but that's the way it goes.
Early stoppage, setting up the rematch. Floyd needs to pay more debt off. Need the controversy to sell the next one.
I don't think that Connor coming from MMA could do much better. When we couldn't use 90% of his tools to win fights.
Still i think he did a good job in the early rounds and then Floyd went forward and completely crush him.
I don't like Mayweather neither, but that match was not done for sport but for business.

Mayweather opted to become aggressive because his hit and run style was not effective as we can see in the earlier rounds. This happen because McGreogor was not also aggressive he just threw jabs and soft straight. That's why Floyd decided to move forward. McGrogor lose to this fight not because of Floyd's power, It's because he was out of gas..
No he lost the fight because he isn't a boxer, Mayweather played with him.
