The Fight - McGregor - Mayweather

[RicInOR]

Boxing is the only loser. One thing I have not one person disagree with:

1. the undercard was chinese water torture.
2. 4 fights and no one went down once...one person flopped and tried to milk the questionable behind the head glance.
3. 3.5 hours only 4 fights...yawn
4. $100 for a fight...FU Mayweather Promotions

Would it have been better to be a 1st round KO.
Everyone bubblegumes about those PPV.

If it was the main event? Yes, those are annoying but that is why you have good fights leading up to the main event. Besides a flop there was nothing memorable in the undercard. Should just charged 50 and only had the main event.

This fight was strictly about mconnor making bank. Fight was a sham.

This fight sure reminds me of Muhammad Ali's "Rope A Dope" strategy with Foreman.
I personally think Mayweather's management team decided that 10 rounds had the best entertainment potential with both fighters coming out of the ring with truck loads of cash and no permanent injuries.

Yep, Mayweather did "Ropa-Dope" and he also did some Joe Frazier, boring in close and landing body shots.
It was a very good strategy.

In the 4th round, the Leprechaun got hit with some body shots that slowed him up.
Late into the 9th, CM could not defend himself.
His head was like a melon on a fencepost, and the ref knew it.
The ref gave him 1:30 into the 10th to prove otherwise.
He could not.
