I dont like conor but lets be honest even if he didnt get paid at all he should be happy with his performance he lasted few rounds and pu ched floyd couple of times with some nice uppercut etc ...he did pretty good against probably the best boxer of all times... If conor would have been beat for straight 10 rounds without punching floyd once then that would have been very sad lose and ebarrasement! I actually though this is wat would happend but i was very shocked by Conors performance and Floyd was aswell i dont think he was leting conor he really was confused at first then he changed his style and made hit harder for conor to do anything anymore
He's not. Hes just spouting lame excuses instead of saying the truth. Floyd had him from the start. Sure, Mcgregor can land some punches and he might have above average punching power...but those 2 traits are super common in the boxing game...then he had nothing and Floyd knew it.
@@santiagoz.s.1024 He's delusional. He's making excuses and saying non-sense like "I felt no skill difference" when he got schooled like an amateur. He brings up the fact that he dropped paulie in a sparring session, it's amazing how the human mind invents excuses to protect ego.
@@philipmarket7439 Ok casual, I dont think youre qualified to speak on who the greatest is. All real boxing fans know Sugar Ray. Robinson is the greatest p4p.
What Conor does'nt understand is that Floyd did'nt fight him like he would have fought a Canelo, Manny, Sugar Shane, Juan Marquez etc because this was an exhibition and money grab!! If Floyd had really taken Conor seriously like he did professional boxers, Conor would have been obliterated in the first one to three rounds!! Floyd has never walked standing almost straight up with gloves against his head stalking his opponent. Conor is hilarious, he would destroy Floyd in the octagon no question but if Floyd took Conor seriously Conor would have wound up on the canvas! The ref had to stop the fight what is McGregor thinking?😂😂😂😂😂😂
@I 8 Name me one boxing match that Floyd fought any boxer the same way he fought Conor. The only other person Floyd ever walked towards was Tenshin and that was a complete mismatch and exhibition
I 8 fact is Floyd carried him in the early rounds to justify the pay per view. Do you honestly believe that the best boxer of this generation struggled with a guy with no professional boxing experience? Behave yourself.
He just made $100 mil... More than like 10 times the amount he had made in the ufc upto that date put together. I would be restraining myself from saying this is the best day of my life. Because in fact, that would be the best day in his life. He could have easily retired, focussed on proper12 and lived better than anyone
if you dont see the intelligence of this guy i dont know what to say.. hes picking apart every piece of the performance thats what makes this guy special. he really understands and a very high IQ for fighting.. and im a floyd fan
Dil Rai now your being bias. Lol conner is an idiot, especially when he said it wasn't "skill" Floyd had. No matter what it takes skill to be a professional fighter and to fight. Conner is just a loud mouth who gains he's money off his antics which is a great marketing ploy. But that's it he's nothing real special
It’s always just a “money grab” to fans who never been competitive. Conor been out striking and knocking out dudes, Floyd has been untouched. Conor wanted the challenge to stop him and Floyd wanted to prove he can out class him and show his boxing. 2 big forces obviously are gonna generate money, comes with the territory
"From a composure level..." Hit not get hit. Weather the storm. Poker face. Pace yourself. Stay calm under pressure. Focus. Chess not Checkers. Boxing.
To those who say he didn't do well u just don't know the difference between his sport and boxing. No MMA fighter could ever beat an elite boxer under boxing rules. Just go watch TJ Dillashaw spar Lomachenko. Go watch Jose Aldo spar with Mikey Garcia
@Smith-Mundts Modernization Act (Look into it) Floyd had to study him in the early rounds. He got hit with a good uppercut in the beginning. I don't believe the carrying part but I definitely do believe that it was part of Floyd's gameplan. Every boxers early wins in their careers where they pad their record by beating nobodies should also have an asterisk too if that is the case with this fight as u say
That's WHY he didn't do well. There's levels to this boxing game, but McGregor's legions of gullible fans didn't understand this. It worked well for McGregor, since Floyd is a retired pillow puncher who carried him through the fight. His brand would take quite a hit if he called out a killer like Thurman or Canelo, which is precisely why you'll never see that happen.
Yeah but Floyd turned into a Mexican in the 4th round and Mcgregor still won the 4th and the 6th and 8th, all rounds were close after Mcgregors domination in the first 3 rounds. Your ref went and stopped it early like it was a wwe match or something. Probs because Floyd was down on the REAL scorecards and the typical every single boxing event in past or present or Future, there's fixed judges on the side fucking it over, look at the other night, Logan won 4-2, I knew the Sport of Boxing was going down the shitter when Floyd was the supposed face of it, imagine wanting to be like Floyd when your older lol, no wonder the whole sport of Boxing is full of bitches.
It's a change of style, not striking skill. Striking skill being precision, timing, power, etc. In a way it is a skill advantage to have many approaches to a fight, due to experience, but when it comes to being strikers they are pretty close, which floyd fans don't want to admit.

He accepted a boxing match, so he had to change his style for the fight.

He was close to tears after realizing he just made like $85 million lol. I don't think he gave a fook about losing. He got to have fun, and make almost 100 million in a sport that's way easier than MMA in terms of skill and pain. He even said he felt like he just got done with a football match lmao, and I believe him.
You've gotta be careful when you say things like "he wasn't that powerful, he wasn't that fast." Because then you're saying you lost to somebody who was slow and weak.
Yep, and idiots on here saying he isn't a sore loser. Imagine saying the isn't that powerful or fast lol. He hasn't been the same since the whooping Floyd gave him
Saying someone is “not that fast”, is not the same as saying “ he was not fast at all” or “he was slow”. The beauty of the game of martial arts is that it isn’t binary, it isn’t like NFL, where if your not quick, and good at catching, that’s it your not elite. There’s an endless list of attributes that can make a fighter elite. By saying he isn’t that quick he ain’t being disrespectful
Floyd wasnt trying very much in the early rounds. It was a hyped fight so i think he let Conor do his thing but as soon as Floyd got serious, it was a mismatch💯
@@safaamodir5593 no, not at all, Floyed knew that he never went 12 rounds before so he knew he would get tired, and Floyed took him to deep waters and tired em out, Floyed even if he “tried” would’ve never been able to stop him in the early rounds, he would’ve got dropped
The man just made 100 million quid and he’s still wanting to learn and think about where he went wrong , always trying to improve you’ve got to respect that

Connor is cool. I love when he says “i love a good fight”.
@@mysticmac6016 i work for a catering company in south dublin, we once supplied tables and chairs for an event that Conor attended. I saw him doing bumo after bump surrounded by his massive black dressed groupies hahahahah
For anyone in their first professional boxing fight ever to go that far with arguably the greatest ever, I give him props he was way out of his league to begin with but to step in for the first time and do what he did pretty good
He's humble in victory or defeat, and Mcgregor says 1st round K. O everytime anyway, Mcgregors a 25minute fighter and he won 6-2 in 25minutes.. He won the first 4 and the 6th and the 8th so that's 5-3 in 25minutes
Floyd pulled him into the long match as he knew he would come out hard and tire. Not really rocket science especially for one of the best boxers ever. Good pay checks all round so Connor didn’t complain, win win as he wasn’t expected to win anyway lol
@@anders5611 "went easy." Floyd let Conor gas himself out, he didn't go easy on him. It was his gameplan, and it's always been Floyd's gameplan. You're a casual and you need to go watch soccer.
@@MrCholoPants3415 shut the fuck up soccer boy. All you did was watch the "ESPN Archives: Floyd Mayweather on KO'ing Conor McGregor" interview and you're reapting what he said. Floyd went easy on him and didn't try early rounds. Main objective gasing him out but he barely tried in the early rounds. Compare his old fights early and late to this fight right now. And don't bring up soccer in UFC / Boxing thats a sport for pussies
What do you mean? He said he didn’t feel Floyd’s skill but described it in detail. His boxing skill and iq are tied into his composure. His ability to adjust during a fight is a testament to his skill. Floyd usually uses his footwork, makes the opponent chase him around, sometimes laying on the ropes while throwing his check left hook, establishing the jab, occasionally throwing combos. Floyd didn’t do any of that instead he stood in front of him throwing mostly the straight right then covering up. If McGregor had hurt him, Floyd would’ve held him like he held Mosley in their fight. He took the shot and kept throwing. There was a body shot I thought hurt him but he worked his way out of that situation too. They should both be happy. Nine figure pay day for both
I dont need to..seen it a million times but people need to stop saying floyd wanted to make conor look good.Thats like Michael Jordan turning the ball over just to give Larry bird a chance to win smh😂😂
@@nyteowl8069 Thats not the same lol He wanted the fight to look competitive and not "boring". Floyd could've just boxed on the outside like he usaully does and swept Conor. But everybody and their mama wouldve said the fight was a snooze. Since when does Floyd fight that flat footed? Lol
You will never see a rematch with MMA rules and regulations because everyone knows including Floyd I bet how badly he would get hurt. Even with the same amount of time to train and adjust the result would be the same. The second Connor sends his bare shin to the side of his face, if he ain't knocked out then I bet he would be tapping. And tbh that would be the least of his worries, once Connor takes him down which he could do whenever he wanted it would also be over for Floyd as there are just way too many different levels to MMA which you just couldn't prepare for in that amount of time vs someone as talented as Mcgregor. I'm not even a fanboy I'm glad Floyd won the boxing match but that's just the truth when it comes to rematch inside the octagon.
If anyone ever thought conner stood a chance against floyd in a boxing match, please go slap yourself right now. This is BOXING. 3 × 12 min rounds to do what u gotta do. What u saw was a 40 yo floyd walk down & school a younger fighter in hes prime who was naturally 20 pounds bigger. If u thought connor stood a chance, u either don't know anything about boxing or just started watching mma or have just got into these sports and are a casual. #FACTS#
Floyd didn’t even try. When I watched Showtime All Access, Floyd stopped heavy training like 3 weeks out. No road work, stopped sparring, and during the fight just stood in front of McGregor. Didn’t stick and move like he normally does. No check left hooks. Didn’t really establish his jab. Barely went to the body. No respect for McGregor’s boxing. McGregor just knows how to sell fights. Mayweather helped also by exaggerating Conor’s chances while downplaying his own. If he had smirked and said “come on only a handful of world class boxers were able to touch me let alone hurt me. I’m gonna carry him for about eight rounds then start bombing on him in the 9th” no one would’ve bought the ppv. He kept saying how he was old and he’s not the same fighter he was years ago. How McGregor was bigger and stronger. Lol he wore that ski mask for a reason. Popped up, robbed the public for $250 mil+, and got away. Brilliant by both men. Nine figure paydays for both.
I am wondering how well Mayweather would stand up in a MMA match with McGregor,not one round it would be totally the other way around, McGregor done well in this fight and a huge payday for both.
Two years later, I still agree with Connor. It was all fatigue and composure, not skill. Either way great fight, and he did better than most fighters against Floyd. Need a part two please
lmao his “composure” is apart of his skill. He literally let Mcgregor throw hands at him for like the first 6 rounds. Mayweather made sure he didn’t make any big mistakes and from there finish it off when Mcgregor was gassed. Pure skill
Lol if Floyd boxed him he would’ve went down sooner. He could’ve stuck the jab while moving around, throwing combinations and working the body but he didn’t. Stood in front of him throwing one or two punches at a time. Floyd never fights like that. He had no respect for McGregor’s boxing
4:38 this right here is what people need to hear. Mayweather knee that if McGregor had any chance to win it would be in the first 4-5 rounds so he literally let him take shots on him and absorbed them. Once Connor was fatigued was when he started taking over. Like he said that’s just experience
Floyd let Conor get those punches in because he had no respect for him and walked forward but I like McGregor and he did hurt Floyd with that body shot and I do think it was mostly fatigue that had him so wobbled but there was alot of time left in the round and he was getting hit without responding so fare play to the Ref for stopping it when he did.
@@kingjayswishiii_388Yeah you're right about that but the second the clock hit midnight on the East coast the uploaded it because they knew the fight between KSI and Logan just happened. Just to get those three of you just to get those free views.
Elysian Tattoo Travel obviously getting knocked in the head isn’t playing but Floyd was playing around with dude in the fight he wasn’t even taking him serious
let's keep being honest- Conor was playing with us. He knew he was going to walk into the ring, without any fear of the opponent, get a workout, and be paid a couple hundred million dollars. He knew he wouldn't outbox Floyd, but He knew he would not get hurt by him. minimum punishment, easy money.
AlmightySosa most likely would get beat up since he never trained to become a UFC fighter that’s why boxers don’t move to the UFC because that’s a whole different style of fighting
Mayweather calculated that fight to a T. He gave us a show then wizzahzooped that azs. McGregor was completely exhausted and defenseless. No way he would have made it through 2 more minutes of them head shots. That was a great professional call from the ref, possibly added a few more years to McGregor’s life. 💯
Conor seriously thinks he was fighting, a trained in shape Floyd? It was just an entertainment fight for money! Floyd didnt even train. Comon conor stop acting like we are idiots!
@@jamesbaka1206 exactly, so why is Connor acting like he fought the real Floyd. It was an entertainment fight, everyone in boxing knows that. It was a disgrace.
Andrew Stannard I actually think he fought the real Floyd but with a different style. Floyd is usually looking to win on points and survive but in this fight he had to come forward or his legacy would be hurt a little. I’m just saying I think Conor did great. He gave Floyd Mayweather a good 10 rounds after 10 weeks of boxing experience. Imo it’s a bad look for mayweather. He had trouble putting away a 10 week amateur.
@@jamesbaka1206no disrespect, but if you think conor fought the real Floyd, you know absolutely nothing about boxing. In those 10 weeks Floyd didn't train more than 10 times, it was an entertainment fight,clearly your an mma fan, and you think this was real! 🤣🤣
James Baka that’s literally why he’s saying it was just an entertainment fight cuz Floyd didn’t put him away Floyd has put away way better boxers than Conor you think he couldn’t do the same to him? Lol obviously Floyd wasn’t really trying in this fight he had to still try to make it look a little believable but it was for the money he didn’t want to destroy Conor I’m sure they are a lot closer than the weeks leading up to fight they have to sell it anyone who thinks this was real is crazy so are the people that thought Conor had a chance at winning lol
“i have titles to defend as well”... so did he never have a chance to defend any titles or did he just not do it? Cause in the new interviews he’s doing he talks about how the ufc was quick to strip him.

Lord Artem does what ever the fuck he wants to do.
He ends every sentence with “it was a fair play though”
You've gotta be careful when you say things like "he wasn't that powerful, he wasn't that fast." Because then you're saying you lost to somebody who was slow and weak.
Money may all day
Yep, and idiots on here saying he isn't a sore loser. Imagine saying the isn't that powerful or fast lol. He hasn't been the same since the whooping Floyd gave him
Saying someone is “not that fast”, is not the same as saying “ he was not fast at all” or “he was slow”. The beauty of the game of martial arts is that it isn’t binary, it isn’t like NFL, where if your not quick, and good at catching, that’s it your not elite. There’s an endless list of attributes that can make a fighter elite. By saying he isn’t that quick he ain’t being disrespectful
4:32
GOAT
Floyd wasnt trying very much in the early rounds. It was a hyped fight so i think he let Conor do his thing but as soon as Floyd got serious, it was a mismatch💯
Who the fook is that guy😂😂😂😂😂!!
@@safaamodir5593 no, not at all, Floyed knew that he never went 12 rounds before so he knew he would get tired, and Floyed took him to deep waters and tired em out, Floyed even if he “tried” would’ve never been able to stop him in the early rounds, he would’ve got dropped
@@PapiiGiio good point 👌 well said!
This interview was fair play.
The man just made 100 million quid and he’s still wanting to learn and think about where he went wrong , always trying to improve you’ve got to respect that
Connor is cool. I love when he says “i love a good fight”.
Connor definitely had a couple bumps before this interview lol
Stuart Flynn how so
@@drewgrffn3880 hes bout that good ole cocaine 🤣🤣🤣
@@mysticmac6016 i work for a catering company in south dublin, we once supplied tables and chairs for an event that Conor attended. I saw him doing bumo after bump surrounded by his massive black dressed groupies hahahahah
Bump*
5:33 artem just standing there with no top on
In other words he's just admitted he got outsmarted, outclassed and outboxed.
Respect for snapping out of denial and giving respect where its due
Lol, unhappy Internet talker.
this interview ... xD XD XDXD "In Mma the ref wants to, at least, see a nose hang there- u kno wha i mean?" LOL how can one not love Conor?
I need that mindset in my life
For anyone in their first professional boxing fight ever to go that far with arguably the greatest ever, I give him props he was way out of his league to begin with but to step in for the first time and do what he did pretty good
5:13 and right there, is the greatest fighter of all time. Conor's pretty good too.
He went from talking wreckles to speaking humble after that beat down.
2 Cents he was talking shit to sell a fight you fuck
He's humble in victory or defeat, and Mcgregor says 1st round K. O everytime anyway, Mcgregors a 25minute fighter and he won 6-2 in 25minutes.. He won the first 4 and the 6th and the 8th so that's 5-3 in 25minutes
WTF is a wreckle?
He won the first round and that's it.
teddy atlas disagrees son even he gave connor 4 or 3 rounds
I guess drinking whiskey after a lose is great.
Floyd pulled him into the long match as he knew he would come out hard and tire. Not really rocket science especially for one of the best boxers ever. Good pay checks all round so Connor didn’t complain, win win as he wasn’t expected to win anyway lol
Who watched the ksi and Logan Paul boxing for free?
keil festin why pay when theres youtube
keil festin Who won?
HTX 713 it was a draw I think
mike b yea they just did cause they have beef
Al Goodie haha fair I didn't pay I watched it in live streaming in UA-cam lol
I love the "changed his style" talk. Floyd always fights southpaws more square with a high guard, as a straight left is harder to defend in his shell.
Conor speaking facts, i agree 100% everything he says here
He's delusional. Floyd went easy on him for the fans.
@@anders5611 "went easy." Floyd let Conor gas himself out, he didn't go easy on him. It was his gameplan, and it's always been Floyd's gameplan. You're a casual and you need to go watch soccer.
@@MrCholoPants3415 I'm not a casual because I actually boxed in my life. Conor had no chance against Mayweather.
@@MrCholoPants3415 shut the fuck up soccer boy. All you did was watch the "ESPN Archives: Floyd Mayweather on KO'ing Conor McGregor" interview and you're reapting what he said. Floyd went easy on him and didn't try early rounds. Main objective gasing him out but he barely tried in the early rounds. Compare his old fights early and late to this fight right now. And don't bring up soccer in UFC / Boxing thats a sport for pussies
What do you mean? He said he didn’t feel Floyd’s skill but described it in detail. His boxing skill and iq are tied into his composure. His ability to adjust during a fight is a testament to his skill. Floyd usually uses his footwork, makes the opponent chase him around, sometimes laying on the ropes while throwing his check left hook, establishing the jab, occasionally throwing combos. Floyd didn’t do any of that instead he stood in front of him throwing mostly the straight right then covering up. If McGregor had hurt him, Floyd would’ve held him like he held Mosley in their fight. He took the shot and kept throwing. There was a body shot I thought hurt him but he worked his way out of that situation too. They should both be happy. Nine figure pay day for both
4:39 "I was actually a bit surprised how easy it was in the early rounds" Yeah broski cuz he stood there and let you punch till you get tired
Notice he didn't have to make excuses about his shoulder like Pacquiao😂
The fact that Floyd supposedly carried conor to the 10th round is absurd...
I dont need to..seen it a million times but people need to stop saying floyd wanted to make conor look good.Thats like Michael Jordan turning the ball over just to give Larry bird a chance to win smh😂😂
@@nyteowl8069 Thats not the same lol He wanted the fight to look competitive and not "boring". Floyd could've just boxed on the outside like he usaully does and swept Conor. But everybody and their mama wouldve said the fight was a snooze. Since when does Floyd fight that flat footed? Lol
I guess u could say that lol
@@nyteowl8069 lol Its true look at Maidana 1 and 2. Two different Floyd's.
He bet 400k on the 10th
This is the post fight interview of a man set for life
“No skill just experience and composure.”
50-0 btw
Ya the no skill comment is ridiculous
Lol then throughout the interview described Floyd’s skill in-depth 😂.
Also must consider, if this was mma, floyd wouldnt let u take his back as easily. He would be fairly prepared same as McGregor adjusting to boxing.
You will never see a rematch with MMA rules and regulations because everyone knows including Floyd I bet how badly he would get hurt. Even with the same amount of time to train and adjust the result would be the same. The second Connor sends his bare shin to the side of his face, if he ain't knocked out then I bet he would be tapping. And tbh that would be the least of his worries, once Connor takes him down which he could do whenever he wanted it would also be over for Floyd as there are just way too many different levels to MMA which you just couldn't prepare for in that amount of time vs someone as talented as Mcgregor. I'm not even a fanboy I'm glad Floyd won the boxing match but that's just the truth when it comes to rematch inside the octagon.
Floyd would lose in less than a minute, look what he just did to cowboy imagine Floyd that has no experience mma
Boxing is more dangerous than MMA
If anyone ever thought conner stood a chance against floyd in a boxing match, please go slap yourself right now. This is BOXING. 3 × 12 min rounds to do what u gotta do.
What u saw was a 40 yo floyd walk down & school a younger fighter in hes prime who was naturally 20 pounds bigger.
If u thought connor stood a chance, u either don't know anything about boxing or just started watching mma or have just got into these sports and are a casual.
#FACTS#
Floyd didn’t even try. When I watched Showtime All Access, Floyd stopped heavy training like 3 weeks out. No road work, stopped sparring, and during the fight just stood in front of McGregor. Didn’t stick and move like he normally does. No check left hooks. Didn’t really establish his jab. Barely went to the body. No respect for McGregor’s boxing. McGregor just knows how to sell fights. Mayweather helped also by exaggerating Conor’s chances while downplaying his own. If he had smirked and said “come on only a handful of world class boxers were able to touch me let alone hurt me. I’m gonna carry him for about eight rounds then start bombing on him in the 9th” no one would’ve bought the ppv. He kept saying how he was old and he’s not the same fighter he was years ago. How McGregor was bigger and stronger. Lol he wore that ski mask for a reason. Popped up, robbed the public for $250 mil+, and got away. Brilliant by both men. Nine figure paydays for both.
I am wondering how well Mayweather would stand up in a MMA match with McGregor,not one round it would be totally the other way around, McGregor done well in this fight and a huge payday for both.
It was completely one sided. As predicted. Mayweather didn't even try that hard. Genius.
You can’t be a professional boxer and fatigue that quickly. It’s hurt him in the ufc too.
Two years later, I still agree with Connor. It was all fatigue and composure, not skill. Either way great fight, and he did better than most fighters against Floyd. Need a part two please
He fought a 42 year old and couldn’t outlast him? Boxing ain’t for everyone
lmao his “composure” is apart of his skill. He literally let Mcgregor throw hands at him for like the first 6 rounds. Mayweather made sure he didn’t make any big mistakes and from there finish it off when Mcgregor was gassed. Pure skill
Composure comes from skill lol ..
Lol if Floyd boxed him he would’ve went down sooner. He could’ve stuck the jab while moving around, throwing combinations and working the body but he didn’t. Stood in front of him throwing one or two punches at a time. Floyd never fights like that. He had no respect for McGregor’s boxing
Nah he got whooped
Is Artem Lobov McGregors shadow or something? Seems like every McGregor video I watch over the past 5 years, Artem is there in the background.
Mayweather was 40!! 😂 can you imagine a 30 year old Mayweather.
Bye bye Conor
Conor isnt a boxer , Floyd would never step in the octagon
Good interview
4:38 this right here is what people need to hear. Mayweather knee that if McGregor had any chance to win it would be in the first 4-5 rounds so he literally let him take shots on him and absorbed them. Once Connor was fatigued was when he started taking over. Like he said that’s just experience
What we’ve learned is: Boxers are tougher
This video makes me Respect him, he can get crazy at times haha, but he's into it
Horrible watching this back and thinking about the respect he got after this fight and how he’s lost it now
Thought he was the new Bruce Lee but as soon as someone switches up his philly shell into a orthodox boxing style he gets thrown off... 😂
Mick Habich he did switch his style 3 separate times.
This put him on another level
Floyd let Conor get those punches in because he had no respect for him and walked forward but I like McGregor and he did hurt Floyd with that body shot and I do think it was mostly fatigue that had him so wobbled but there was alot of time left in the round and he was getting hit without responding so fare play to the Ref for stopping it when he did.
take a shot every time Mcgregor says fair play to him
the GOAT appears at 4:33
Fair play to Connor for saying fair play more then anyone, fair play to him
They just reposted this on UA-cam because the KSI & Logan Paul fight just happened. They're just trying to get those free views.
Right
That's exactly what I was about to comment about.
Or....It's because this is the one year anniversary of this fight.
@@kingjayswishiii_388Yeah you're right about that but the second the clock hit midnight on the East coast the uploaded it because they knew the fight between KSI and Logan just happened. Just to get those three of you just to get those free views.
why are y’all in these comments acting like mcgregor really had a chance against a 49-0 boxer
The goat artim in the back ground keeping watch on his pupil.
9:15 Very true. Hats off to you, Connor.
Ref saved him brain damage Conor ended up going to the hospital had brain damage no joke
You better thank that ref Floyd was on his way to ko 5 more clean punches max
I don’t think I need to watch the fight, this video pictured it all
Lol “he was whooping Floyd in the beginning” well Floyd was playing with him in the beginning which was a smart move
So..you call getting knocked on the head "playing? Rewatch the first 3 rounds b please
Elysian Tattoo Travel obviously getting knocked in the head isn’t playing but Floyd was playing around with dude in the fight he wasn’t even taking him serious
Numbuh 859 if you don’t think he took it serious your stupid
Yo numbuh stfu already
For everyone one saying it’s idiotic to buy the Ksi vs Logan POV, do you realise it’s only £7 to watch it legally and respectfully
Lol gotta love his whiskey cup while artum is looking at him like a concerned dad
I like his honesty and that he said he wasn't prepared
Let’s be honest- Floyd was playing with him
let's keep being honest- Conor was playing with us. He knew he was going to walk into the ring, without any fear of the opponent, get a workout, and be paid a couple hundred million dollars. He knew he wouldn't outbox Floyd, but He knew he would not get hurt by him. minimum punishment, easy money.
Ike lolz I agree and well said. I told myself I wouldn’t watch because of this.. got sucked in...
@bleach4711 Lmfao that's a great analogy
Composure and experience = skill
these UFC fighters all wanna fight mayweather because they know what would happen if they try to choose canelo xDDDD
And what would happend if canelo went to the octagon?
AlmightySosa most likely would get beat up since he never trained to become a UFC fighter that’s why boxers don’t move to the UFC because that’s a whole different style of fighting
Mayweather calculated that fight to a T. He gave us a show then wizzahzooped that azs. McGregor was completely exhausted and defenseless. No way he would have made it through 2 more minutes of them head shots. That was a great professional call from the ref, possibly added a few more years to McGregor’s life. 💯
Conor seriously thinks he was fighting, a trained in shape Floyd? It was just an entertainment fight for money! Floyd didnt even train. Comon conor stop acting like we are idiots!
Andrew Stannard Conor had 10 weeks to become a boxer, Floyd had 20 years
@@jamesbaka1206 exactly, so why is Connor acting like he fought the real Floyd. It was an entertainment fight, everyone in boxing knows that. It was a disgrace.
Andrew Stannard I actually think he fought the real Floyd but with a different style. Floyd is usually looking to win on points and survive but in this fight he had to come forward or his legacy would be hurt a little. I’m just saying I think Conor did great. He gave Floyd Mayweather a good 10 rounds after 10 weeks of boxing experience. Imo it’s a bad look for mayweather. He had trouble putting away a 10 week amateur.
@@jamesbaka1206no disrespect, but if you think conor fought the real Floyd, you know absolutely nothing about boxing. In those 10 weeks Floyd didn't train more than 10 times, it was an entertainment fight,clearly your an mma fan, and you think this was real! 🤣🤣
James Baka that’s literally why he’s saying it was just an entertainment fight cuz Floyd didn’t put him away Floyd has put away way better boxers than Conor you think he couldn’t do the same to him? Lol obviously Floyd wasn’t really trying in this fight he had to still try to make it look a little believable but it was for the money he didn’t want to destroy Conor I’m sure they are a lot closer than the weeks leading up to fight they have to sell it anyone who thinks this was real is crazy so are the people that thought Conor had a chance at winning lol
I like how he's acting it out on the interviewer lol
4:40 Lord Artem was ready to destroy everyone
He’s trying so hard to not fully show how happy he is. I would be too if I was him. $100m and showed he can dance with the greatest of all time.
The most staged "fight" in history
Talks shit like no other but still humble when it counts. 👌
Evidently your punches didn’t phase him son
Neither did Floyd’s
I like how he admitted when Floyd changed how he fought, Conor didn’t know how to fight him anymore.
Boxing had Conor so confused even his analysis was confused. Kept saying Floyd didn’t have skill while describing his skill in detail lol
He literally doesn’t look like he just fought one of the best boxers in the world it looks like he just got off the treadmill
Lord Artem watching over his brother Conor during this interview is pure gold
"It woulda been ova dere and den!"
“i have titles to defend as well”...
so did he never have a chance to defend any titles or did he just not do it? Cause in the new interviews he’s doing he talks about how the ufc was quick to strip him.
He's tap machine - Floyd 'Money' Mayweather
Floyd "Money" Nurmagomedov.
Mayweather literally just walked at him didn't try nothing fancy lol ...walked at him 🤣
Floyd carried him....period!!!!
Thank you !
Don't be silly
Connor : Artems always by my side
