I tend to think those are some reasons and rumors given to have people believe it will be a close match.
Mcgregor is much slower as a boxer... this will show the difference in the speed needed to be a boxer.
But great points brought up and thanks for the comment!
You were right. Thought the age difference and training would make the difference. Mcgregor is a lot slower in boxing gloves. Nice prophecies guys.
Well I think those advantages (age, reach, height, weight) did make a difference, just not enough. I was surprised by 2 things though, Mcgregors lack of power that boxers tend to have, but also how well he did. Still Mayweathers plan was to let Mcgregor get to him and wear out.., he was huffing and puffing by the 4th round.
Great show though! Can't wait for McGregor Diaz 3!
Conor trains a lot harder. Mayweather was idle for over a year. Have you seen him pat the boxing sack?
