I think the elephant in the room that most MMA and Conor fans want to ignore is his punching power, or lack thereof to be more precise.
During the build up his whole selling point was his much vaunted punching power, his KO/TKO ratio, his one shot KO of Aldo, the fact he was supposed to be a good boxer etc and even people who weren't stupid enough to think he could win, still though he could at least hurt Floyd if he landed.
But it turns out that by boxing standards he's completely feather fisted and couldn't crack an egg. Floyd was literally laughing at this man with who was supposed to have lightening in his hands. Paulie Malignaggi no doubt hits harder, and yes I'm being deadly serious.
And before anyone pipes up, no this wasn't due to the gloves, the stance, the ring or any of that. It's simply about levels as being a big puncher in MMA means jack shit if you cross over to boxing because when it comes to things like punch power and punch resistance, boxing is still light years ahead of MMA.
