Heel Floyd didn't work for me. I was never a fan. My respect for him doubled last night. I'm still thrilled about that Jim Gray praise.

How do you see Conor winning the MMA match?

McGregor's background before MMA was in boxing. Mayweather has never done MMA. I dunno what that would prove.

Watching it again now, Round 4 is where Maywheather really executed the rope-a-dope. He let Conor exhaust himself on the ropes and then started exploding out.

It was brilliant for him though. He made 99% of his money as the heel. As amazing as he was for a decade, he couldn't sell a fight until he fought De La Hoya at 30, that seemed to be when he really started promoting the obnoxious personality.

Professionally it was, but he grew up boxing as a kid so the fundamentals were there. Mayweather has never done anything but box.

In all honesty, even if he was up for it there's 0% chance MMA could draw the numbers to meet whatever Floyd's price would be.

Floyd's such a bitch, turning his back through a quarter of the rounds. Hugging is it's own thing, then he pulls that shit egging for rabbit punches and back shots.

Stop rooting for McGregor to spite my dislike for him.

That's garbage and you know it! Even the ref told him to stop doing that shit!

I think McGregor could have won this shit if someone taught him some fucking defense. And obviously more cardio would've went a ways, but god damn, learning better slipping and putting up the arms/gloves would've went good like Floyd doing all day.

Okay, now you're drifting into MMA mark delusions a bit. Mayweather would have adjusted to anything McGregor showed him and he has broken down every kind of defense. Too much speed, too much intelligence and Conor's power wasn't anything Floyd hadn't seen before. Floyd's game plan accounted for wanting to go out giving the fans a show.

The ref told McGregor to stop hitting him in the back of the head, homeboi.
