Let's talk about how Floyd "carried" McGregor

[PlayerNinety_Nine]

I feel like all that trash talk was super fake

but i do believe Conor thinking he would win was legit real

he just got gassed

He let himself get worked into the shoot of all shoots

Stevie Ray on this fight "Its like the 2008 financial crash... follow the money"

If you interpret the way the first few rounds went as Floyd wanting the fans to feel they got their moneys worth, rather than Floyd trying to tire Connor out, then you could call it a work.

Do u have any idea how accurate a puncher Floyd is? So him missing that much is...well...you put it together.

It's ridiculous to see people give McGregor so much credit when Floyd was toying with him for 10 rounds

Floyd seemed like he was holding back the first 5 rounds honestly lol

He was, He knew that Connor was dumb enough to punch himself out early in the fight

 

[Dog Based Gremlin]

He was, He knew that Connor was dumb enough to punch himself out early in the fight

or he wanted to put on a worked style WWE type match

let the opponent get his shots in till he springs back and hits Conor with his finisher

sends the crowd home happy
