    Mayweather said he would stop him. He did. His corner after the first round was saying he was gonna let Conor go off until the 4th. That's what happened. Then Floyd walked him down with zero respect for him until he gassed and got beat up.

    Could Floyd come out guns blazing and stop him? Yes. Would that be stupid and dangerous? Yes.

    You sound crazy, m8. Floyd coming out aggressive trying to take Conor's head off is a dangerous gambit that plays right into Conor's supposed strengths. He said as much in his own words after the fight lol. He's not Mike Tyson.

    I don't know what we're even arguing about lol.

    Again, Conor did perfectly fine. Anybody who says otherwise had some crazy expectations. Floyd gave away the first couple of rounds on purpose, sure, his corner said as much. Conor landed some clean punches in the process. He altered his style to make the fight sloppy which benefited him. He had Floyd fighting out of his type which is usually just hanging back and making people look stupid and cruising. Did it help that he's a decade younger, 15 pounds bigger, and the longest guy he's ever fought? Sure, but we're talking about a guy with zero pro boxing fights.

    You don't have to defend boxing's honor by speculating on Floyd's intentions. Like, imagine watching Floyd's past 5 years and say he ever did anything to make a fight entertaining for the casuals. If the easiest, safest route to victory was a 1st round KO, Floyd would have taken it. That's what even prominent boxing figures like Max Kellerman were saying was going to happen. They're the ones who look dumb. Not anybody saying Conor did okay.

    tl;dr Conor didn't go full CM Punk

    First of all it's "Gatti" he's not a hitman, and he fought Mayweather in his prime where Mayweather had to prove something and didn't milk the fight. But you're too smug to know that

    He’s a guy with knockout power who is unpredictable & needed figuring out

    Mayweather was rightfully cautious & went offensive at the right time

    Understandable though as Floyd had to figure out what McGregor was about

    I don't know who you've been talking to but I don't think anyone seriously thought Conor had an advantage in this fight.
