Good effort and holy shit McGreggor is gonna be rich as fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck after this.

Also, RIP to that gaffer who bet $10k on McGreggor last minute lol

 

[Mobius 1]

What a shitshow

 

[Pastry]

What would it look like if Mayweather took the first 4 rounds seriously

 

[smurfx]

MMA fans crying right now.

i wouldn't be. connor did good and wasn't really dominated by mayweather.

 

[Nekketsu Kõha]

Conor seriously. F... You.


What a joke.

Couldn't even box without being a clown.

This is the best UFC has to offer? Joke.

 

[Daffy Duck]

Why did the ref stop it?

Lol

 

[RootCause]

Conor got walked down, tko'd by a frail little man. Sad!

 

[MrS]

Ref did the right thing. Conor was done, breathless, couldn't defend himself. Floyd still had a lot in the tank. Conor should be embarrassed that a 40 year old has more stamina than him.

 

[PR_rambo]

MMA KO'D BY A 40 YEAR OLD , SWEET SCIENCE FAM

 

[Gareth Bale]

I give him credit for not actually going down, but yeah, that went about how it should've.

It would have been like another 10 seconds

 

[Officerrob]

Come on now, was there ever any doubt?

Sucks there was no TKO

That was a TKO

 

[Panzon]

Hell of a fucking fight. Much respect to Mcgregor and of course Floyd is the goat (arguably) for a reason

 

[Seik]

LOL at people who did bet tremendous amounts of money on Connor.

It's nice to have hope though.

 

[KaYotiX]

i feel sorry for the folks who paid for that

 

[dcelw540]

Guys. I decided to say fuck it and put $100k on Conor.

How fucked am I?

So how about that bet?

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Floyd just played with the guy. He had zero respect for his ability or power from the jump. This was like if Tim Tebow faced Clayton kershaw, and kKershaw, knowing he has no chance, decided to fuck around and throw knuckleballs and people are like "wow Tim did so well!" when he pops up instead of striking out.

 

[Ithil]

He was going to. It was a matter of time.

Hence why he should be thankful to the ref. There's no shot of Conor being knocked down. That sort of shot would have been bad for him.

 

[kikiribu]

All went as planned. Let him throw everything he wanted, because he knew he'd gas. Toyed with him.

 

[Syder]

Connor had 3 good rounds.

Ehhhh, not really. He was proactive, yes, but he didn't land anything significant the entire fight.

Just look at Floyd's face, not a scratch.

 

[Ultra Numb]

Why did they stop it?

Mayweather's game came to its conclusion. Take it easy in the earlier rounds, tire out Conor and slowly pick up the pace as he does.

Conor couldn't even defend.

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

McGregor was so tired he was either getting Knocked out or the towel was getting thrown

 

[BiggNife]

Seriously how was that stoppage bullshit

McGregor was doing nothing, Mayweather was assaulting him

 

[NastyBook]

Bout died at the end of Round 9 when Mayweather turned at the bell and POWER WALKED to his corner.

 

[Simply Sami]

honestly should of let it go for another few seconds to justify that $99 ppv price tag

Someone's health is more important to the ref than your ppv price.

 

[JB1981]

Give him more time to work on his boxing game and cardio and Mcgregor takes this to a decision

 

[Mik317]

this was fun at the very least

 

[-griffy-]

Remember to stay tuned for the after credits scene where they introduce Mothra and the connected universe.

 

[Stuggernaut]

Expected, but was longer than I thought it would be... after the replay, not surprised ref called it. McG was done.

Never went down though, impressive.

 

[GCX]

I got 10-0 McGregor so far

Yeah, I think he's winning.

 

[dem]

The fight went mostly how I expected

Conor did a bit better than i figured... but I knew he would gas and start getting peppered/finished.

 

[NYR]

Damn, Conor did better than I thought.

Mayweather just waited for him to get gassed. Such an obvious strategy and he destroyed him with it. Yes, Conor looked great in the first 3 but that was because Mayweather wasn't doing anything.

 

[BroBot]

I put $10K on McGregor. I'm honestly shaking because if I loose i just screwed up my life

 

[CMojicaAce]

Time for CM Punk to make it 50-1

 

[RedAssedApe]

people who paid are the losers not conor lmao

 

[Forward]

Mcgregor in the sunken place rn

30 Million Sunken to his bank account, maybe.

 

[Radec]

Now rematch in a WWE Ring.

 

[Fergie]

Why did they stop it?

Because there was no need to continue?

If the ref thinks a fighter isn't defending himself well and is a punching bag, he can end it.

Fair.

 

[hbkdx12]

Vince McMahon won this.

Best wwe match I saw In a long time

Even had Ranello on the mic

Vince still got it

 

[AJLma]

honestly should of let it go for another few seconds to justify that $99 ppv price tag

Fuck off with this bullshit. $99 to see a man get a concussion? He was done.

 

[PodcastFips]

That stoppage was a joke, what the hell.

 

[buttery fistful]

Mayweather gave Connor several rounds but whatever

 

[perfectchaos007]

espn.com broke

 

[Northernlights]

50-0

 

[C4Lukins]

So boxing is no longer a thing.

Sad to see.

 

[excelsiorlef]

I was entertained

 

[Future]

Haven't watched boxing in awhile. Do they not let fools get knocked out anymore?

 

[cirrhosis]

I don't get why people bet
Nowise, post if you're alive
Hoping it's only shens

 

[Plasticine]

Why did they stop it?

He couldn't defend himself. That's the way boxing works.

 

[Cyrus]

Tuned in during round 4, why was Floyd boxing a tatted zombie?

 

[Dreams-Visions]

Connor was about 4 punches away from getting slept.

McGregor fans should be grateful they didn't have to see their folk hero laid out on the ring floor.
