Kinda looks like Floyd has him figured out now.

I think it's already past the point of embarrassment for Conor though.

Maybe the first round for Mayweather, although still not sure. McGregor wasn't throwing the uppercut well that rd when Mayweather was ducking. And Mayweather was getting more aggressive and then countering the counter.

Conor looks pretty done as far as energy goes, i just hope he makes it to a decision (which Floyd will win in the end)

4-3 Conor I think. Mayweather got that one and the momentum is on his side, but I don't think he should nor will win both debatable ones, I think 4 and 6.

I thought this going into the fight too, that Conor made a significant misstep in trying to be just about as big as possible. That's what contributed to him gassing in the Diaz fights too, was being over-stuffed. He was going to have the size advantage anyway. Why not just take it at 163 or whatever instead?

I wish we could have seen what would have transpired if Conor wasn't completely spent in the 8th rd because of the size. That was a 50/50 before that happened. Regardless if Floyd won, and by ko in the end, that wasn't what a lot of people expected.

Didn't expect McGregor to get gassed after 4 rounds.

Makes me think he didn't even train seriously or think it would go the distance

Yup. Like 1 of the commentators said, he went like a minute without punching back and was taking shot after shot. If you don't fight back, it's going to get stopped.
