Video: Mayweather Knocks out McGregor as he proves no much for the money man
Ladies and Gents, in the end, just as most of
us anticipated: The best boxer in the world beat one of the best mixed martial
artists in a boxing match.
In his return from a
two-year retirement, Floyd Mayweather improved to 50-0 with a 10th-round TKO
over an incredibly game Conor McGregor in their pay-per-view superfight at
T-Mobile Arena. But the storyline was just as much about McGregor, the UFC
lightweight champion, in defeat than it was about the 40-year-old Mayweather in
victory.
McGregor, 29, who was making
his debut as a boxer, never fought reckless or overly aggressive, in contrast
to his prediction of a first-round knockout. What he did was present Mayweather
with a poised and credible challenge, teasing a bright future in the boxing
game should he consider it.
Mayweather (50-0, 27 KOs) focused on the body in the middle
rounds in an effort to zap McGregor's gas tank. The investment began to pay off
as McGregor looked weary late in Round 7. Two rounds later, McGregor was lucky
to make the final bell as Mayweather wobbled him with right hands.
