Glad they stopped the fight when they did. He was ready to tip over any second. I know. I was mocking him for taking Connor's word like he would admit Floyd hurt him.

For sure. I understand he did something similar with Diaz, but dude was done. Come on, every body shot he was breathing hard and Floyd didn't miss any right hand in the last two rounds.

NS922 Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Conor did great. But he definitely wasn't going to win that. Had it not been called he probably would've went down soon after anyway. I thought it was a fun fight though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing there suggested pain or mental incapacity - which was directly clear by the fact that 10 seconds after it was called he was literally talking in full sentences to people in seats. Did you not all see that? Was it just my feed? The fight was called, he took a couple big breaths, turned and started talking in full coherent sentences saying he was just a little tired. He was fine and not even a little bit hurt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Floyd gets defending points. I scored it as a MMA fight lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conor didn't do much early on, but more than Floyd did. So he had to get those rounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone defending this joke of a sport should just reread this over and over. After fighting the "greatest light weight ever" he was 100% fine, except for being out of breath.

pwny Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 6 minutes ago, Matts4313 said: He literally just said what I said: "I am clear spoken, I am fine, the ref should have let me go. I was just tired, but he didnt hurt me." Dude, fighters say this all the time. Daniel Cormier was literally knocked out on the canvas and didn’t get up for several seconds and he told Dana that the ref shouldn’t have stopped the fight. as for speaking coherently, again, after getting knocked out and laying on the canvas, this is DC talking completely coherently: Just because he can talk straight and says he wasn’t hurt doesn’t mean that he was fine.

I could let my child pop me with some gloves on. I wouldnt be hurt. Boxing is stupid, at least in the light weights. Its an endurance test with some slaps in between.

I wish he pressured Floyd the whole fight but and just countered, I think that would have been his best chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he had to get those rounds. I'd say he won around 3 rounds. And I don't see any way you could say less than 2 like one judge. The judging of boxing feels so sleazy. Makes it hard to get into the sport imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
