He wasn't overhyped.. This is an MMA fighter fighting boxings "best" and he still managed to win 4 rounds. The greatest boxer of all time wouldn't even get hit by an MMA fighter. I had a lot of respect for McGregor coming into this fight and now I have a whole lot more. I don't get the hate Floyd gets. 21 years. 5 weight classes. He's beaten the best. Hatton, manny, Oscar, Canelo many more. For me he's the best defensive boxer the world has seen. The way he picks apart his opponents. Only true boxing fans will understand what I mean. Nobodys hating him, you're just too far up his arsehole that so much shit is blocking your ears. He dodged Manny for years, Hatton was finished, Canelo made the mistake of trying to outbox him. Maidana and Zab Judah gave him his hardest fights. He's nowhere near the "Greatest" boxer and especially not after that performance against an MMA fighter who has NEVER HAD A PROFESSIONAL BOXING MATCH IN HIS LIFE.

I don't think you know much about boxing either.

The fact you call him the greatest without even mentioning Sugar Ray Robinson shows how little you know.

In fairness Mayweather hadn't fought for nearly 2 years and is 40 years old. His reflexes and timing were nothing like as good as they used to be. If Alvarez or Golovkin fought McGregor they would spark him. As others have said, though, it would be a different story in the octagon where you can kick, elbow, choke etc.

His time is done, he's had a fantastic career and will go down as a boxing great. Massive respect for McGregor lasting that long, even outboxing him at times.

Or beating his wife, who he still couldn't drop. "Class is permanent"

He's not the best fighter on the planet, he was, but now he's old and a lot slower. Why do you think he's fighting someone who isn't a boxer? Mayweather could beat up a guy in a wheelchair and people like you would still come on here talking about class and money in the same sentence. Also Conor talks a big game to sell the fight, same with Floyd, don't let that confuse you.

I hope that's the last we see of this type of fight. I like both sports, but I think they should stay separate. I doubt this will happen, of course. Too much money to be made.

i paid a stupid amount to watch the main fight. Was impressed by MacGregor's guts but he's an amateur taking on a professional.
The first fight of the night was best for me in front if an empty stadium. Went to 10 rounds, the lad was down by 6 rounds, put the lad on his arse twice and still lost.
It was a good card underneath. How many watched it?

Because I'm not stupid enough to believe a boxer loses to someone who's never put on the gloves. However he gets my respect, I didn't expect him to even win a round let alone 4. To gloat about Mayweather winning is truly embarrasing.

You can only beat what's in front of you , the same as Stoke v Rochdale the other night

I simply don't know how Riccyfuller has the energy to have the amount of arguments/discussions he has on a daily basis on here. It's hard to work out if it's impressive or complete madness.

He is challenging Bayern for the undisputed oatcake posting champion. At the moment they are going toe to toe slugging it out at the moment Bayern is ahead on points but riccyfuller93 is hanging in there slipping out of the way from Bayerns jab and countering well as we move towards the end of the season it's definitely going to the judges

I had a lot of respect for McGregor coming into this fight and now I have a whole lot more. I don't get the hate Floyd gets. 21 years. 5 weight classes. He's beaten the best. Hatton, manny, Oscar, Canelo many more. For me he's the best defensive boxer the world has seen. The way he picks apart his opponents. Only true boxing fans will understand what I mean. Saw a stat t'other day that had Mayweather down as the most accurate puncher of all time...

Exactly what I expected. McGregor came out looking unorthodox unbalanced and basically with no idea. That was the worst Floyd mayweather performance and he still easily beat him. Floyd of 5 year ago would have taken him out within 3. But that's 2 years out and father time for you. He will go down as one of the best ever to lace up gloves. A defensive master and boxing great

He's been a fantastic boxer. He was perfection against Corrales in one of the best performances I have ever seen. I think the reason some people don't like him is he has definitely boxed people who were on their way down, deliberately waiting for their decline. He's not as revered as Robinson who fought LaMotta multiple times despite a huge natural weight disadvantage,and fought other greats when he was way past his best. He's not as loved as Ali who was fighting an animal like Foreman at 32. He didn't get in the wars Sugar Ray or Ali did , which also hurts his standing with some. I'm sure he will be able to live with this, though as he enjoys his retirement in (hopefully) good health. Judging by his last fight, he's picked the right time to go.

Funny thing is that part may be the only genuine thing about the fight.
After some pretty nasty fights I had as a young man the respect for the other man often came after.
However I expect the fight to be a total fix with McGreggor winning as he is the young man with the future and Mayweather just wants to retire.
Expect things that have never happened before like a Rocky fight that you just know is total bullshit.
There is absolutely no way Mayweather would accept a defeat. He's 49-0. He's never lost and he has the chance to become the first fighter in history to achieve a record of 50-0, overtaking his hero Rocky Marciano who finished on 49-0. Why would he throw away his legacy and just allow McGregor to win? And don't say the money, cause he'll get more if he wins anyway. Sometimes it's a pleasure to be wrong. I hope to God there is no rematch because that clown McGreggor is just embarrassing. Someone should shove a pie in his gob to shove him up (or a boxing glove ofc)

What do you expect when you have one guy talking about class and Mayweather in the same sentence. It's almost as if a Boxer has beaten someone who has never boxed before????
