Floyd did nothing for the first two rounds and let McGregor windmill his way to exhaustion, then went to work. Floyd is no KO merchant so just wore him down, barely broke sweat.

a more expensive version of the andrew flintoff farceOh I say his vision there was lovelyComment

At least that was a closer fight with more action
Glad I did not stay up for last night's exibition bout though. Watched it online today and ended up fast forwarding through some rounds.
Was a bout between a guy trying hard but being out of his depth against a guy trying to make it last as long as he could.
Just as well McGregor was in with a 40 year old Mayweather Jnr rather than a younger current champ, otherwise he would not be getting the chance to spin this into some sort of "moral" victory, and yes hear it being described in the Irish media this morning as such a victory for McGregor

Was a complete farce, McGregor gassed out after 2 rounds. Mayweather was laughing throughout. Went exactly as I thought it would but I did expect McGregor to do a bit more. Mayweather cruised it, hardly broke a sweat. That's what happens when you put an amateur boxer in with the best of the best.Comment

Can see McGregor boxing again (against a very carefully picked and probably under orders to lose opponent) and being promoted by Mayweather to keep the money train rolling on the tracks.
Could also see Mayweather boxing and beating a UFC champ every couple of years til he's 60
I reckon McGregor weighed at least a stone more than Mayweather on the night.Glass Half Full

Embarrassing fight....Conor should stick to MMA and Mayweather serves his sport far better retired....farcical night."Its not about the long ball or the short ball, its about the right ball." Bob PaisleyComment

Saw a few very brief highlights and some of those flurry of punches McGregor threw did seem like they were a bit slapping and bordering on back of the head. Sure his fans will convince themselves it was close but it really wasn't. Perfectly executed game plan from Mayweather.Football without Origi is nothingComment

For the first time ever I agree with McGregor, he should have been sparked out and not ref stopped. It would have shut the ****er up for a few minutes and give us all some peace.Those that hid Anne Frank were breaking the law.
Those that killed her, were following the law.Comment

At least with the freak show out of the way, the focus can return to a real fight now with GGG vs Canelo only a few weeks away.I don't hate people. I just feel better when they aren't around.
