He's going to play defensively, stay out of McGregor's reach, and salt away the match by making sure he wins enough rounds via punch count. And then everyone is going to complain about how they wasted a hundred bucks and say how they'll never spend a dollar on Mayweather again, until the next one comes along in two years. |
Oh yeah, I forgot that in America they've seriously ripped of their viewers. 100 bucks!!!!! Absolute crazy. It's only 19 in the uk and 14 in other parts of Europe.

Here in Sweden, it costs about 62 dollars to see the fight, so some parts of Europe have a pretty bad deal as well.
I agree with your other post above, the fight will be decided on points and I think it will be quite disappointing to most viewers, certainly not worth the massive cost of the PPV. Mayweather will shoulder roll and counter jab his way to a point win as per usual, Connor will complain that he has a cowardly style of fighting and insist he could have knocked him out. I think Connor will pressure in the first rounds and go for a wild KO, but he's not conditioned for this amount of rounds and the discipline of only punching, he's likely to start dropping his guard midway through the bout and really open himself up by not being able to retract and hoist his guard after some wild swings, making it easy for Floyd "Do a Barrel Roll" Mayweather to score cheap points from counterattacks.
If, by some grace of a mysterious force, Connor should manage to knock out Mayweather though; two things are sure to happen, one will be the world going crazy and other is me being very, very happy. Mayweather is an amazing boxer and athlete but a disgusting person and I'd like nothing more than seeing him on his ass, that dollar bling-bling grin wiped off his smug face all over the web. Some people become assholes from success, he is certainly one of those.
