McGregor came into the fight thinking that it would be an all out slugfest. He wasn't even defending himself (which is very dangerous).

Mayweather was patient. He frustrated McGregor, kept his head down, defended himself very well and perfectly counter attacked.

Very tactical fight by Mayweather.

Referee stopped the fight.

The great Sugar Ray Leonard says that it's over. McGregor is gone. "He's exhausted".

McGregor is tired.

McGregor is defending for the first time. I think he's getting tired.

McGregor doesn't know how to get past Mayweather's defence and Mayweather is counter attacking.


Have you noticed that McGregor is not really defending himself?

Now Mayweather is attacking.

Floyd is turning his back to McGregor so that McGregor will hit him on the back of the head.

Mayweather pushes McGregor at the end of the round and the referee pushes Mayweather.

Floyd is trying to use experience, rather than power or speed to win this fight.

The weaving and bobbing and low head is giving McGregor problems and he is not defending/protecting himself enough and Mayweather is using that opportunity to launch surprise attacks.

Now Floyd wants to attack, but McGregor's not letting him.

Floyd is deliberately keeping his head down, hoping that McGregor will hit him on the back of the head again and lose points or even get disqualified.

I think Mayweather's plan is wear out McGregor. He is not even trying to attack yet.

I think McGregor's conner told him to ease up. He is more patient and cautious in the 2nd round.

McGregor needs to know that those punches don't count if they don't hit the target. Mayweather is patiently defending.

McGregor showboating. He needs to be careful. Floyd knows what he is doing. He is an expert at defence.
