Stupid fight from th3 beginning but better that dumbshit Conor had to eat at least 4 paragraphs of smacktalk he is ao full of $hit and always has been.
LOL this is want you are going with, with your debate lol
Right, first things first. I never said Conor would win, and I like Floyd, so his win did not bother me.
Have you heard the saying "the sweet science of boxing"? Do you know what it means?
Boxing is a complicated sport. You cannot be a good boxer, and understand the sweet science of boxing. It can take years, as many boxers have stated. Your technique,footwork, head movement, pacing, cardio etc can take years to develop. And the only way you are going to do that is hard work, dedication, and a few 12 rounds fights.
Floyd is the master of the science of boxing. One of, if not, the greatest boxers of all time. He has the skill, the experience, and that experience never leaves you!
Yes, he is forty, but even at forty, he is a dangerous fighter, no one can doubt that.
Now Conor. He boxed when he was a kid, then moved to mma. He would have taken what he learned, but that was maybe 10%.
So, in mma, as you should know, strikers are not as good as boxers because they cannot dedicate their time to just boxing, considering all the other factors that come into play in mma
So Conor took this fight, and trained for around three months, which, of course is no way enough time, as we are talking years of training and dedication, and quite a few 12 round fights.
So, he went into this fight as not a boxer, and even though he lost, he done a lot better than people thought. Because of his lack of boxing experience.
He managed to counter, connect with body shots, use the jab effectively up until the begining of round 9, and as a boxing fan, I have to commend him for that, considering it was his first professional 12 round fight against the greatest defensive boxer of all time. Older yes, but of course, still a dangerous fighter.
Did he win as many rounds as some people were saying? I do not think so. But he was landing, even when Floyd started to through.
As for the gassing. This was Connors first professional fight. It takes a lot of 12 round experience in the boxing ring to learn how to pace yourself. That is why i knew he was going to gass and predicted it, like a lot of people.
This is why Conor done well. Does not matter if Floyd had a plane, or changed his style for this fight.
Even Floyd said after he was surprised about Conor in that fight.
If you can debate these points with me, that would be great!
