McGregor's a cunt but he deserves respect. Whereas you're just a cunt.

This. He landed more shots than paqio did in his fight agaisnt mayweather, with a slightly higher accuracy too. Not bad for someone who only spent 2 months preparing against the worlds best defensive boxer. It was also his first professional boxing match.

You UFC nuthuggers must not have realized that Mayweather took it easy on the Irish Noob. He toyed with him for most of the fight. Why do you think the fight all of a sudden turned into a beating when McG shoved Floyd in the 9th? That pissed Mayweather off and he just blasted him out at will, despite being considered a light puncher in boxing and being outweighed by McG by about 15 pounds.

Anyway, yes, there is no shortcut to gaining great cardio. You have to do long steady-state sessions along with HIIT to gain the ability to perform short explosive bursts.

>He landed more shots than paqio did in his fight agaisnt mayweather
Yeah no shit mayweather went forward against cmg cause he wanted the knockout he could've fought defensive like against pacquiao and mcgregor wouldnt land a single shot

he couldn't breath after the 5th round, it was pathetic. This isn't about having boxed or not, it's about sheer lack of athleticism and stamina. Getting gassed against a fucking oldman while being in your prime is plain ridiculous.

>gassed by rd5 and TKO'd by an old man coming out of retirement
>b-but he landed a few more punches than Pacquiao

isn't it funny how before the fight the mantra was:
"muh hard left, he only needs to connect one shot and it can all be over!" and after the fight people were praising mctapper for landing several weak laughable shots?

>never boxed professionally, still had THE STONES to fight

Jesus christ you make it sound like the bloke had never fought anyone before in any discipline.

It's a well known fact that mcgregor has never been punched or trained boxing before until 2 months before the fight :^)

>He landed more shots than paqio did in his fight against mayweather, with a slightly higher accuracy too

This

>went forward against cmg cause he wanted the knockout
He couldnt even get close to a knockout and only managed to get TKO when McFuckface was so gassed he could barely stand. And he didnt even end up on the ground

McGregors style takes a lot of energy. He use a lot more energy in his punches than most fighters/boxers. Thats what makes him a great knockout artist and thats why he gets tired, fast. No amount of cardio can fix that.

you mean "he wastes a lot more energy in his punches"

There's nothing in his style that forces him to gas in

> i know literally nothing

That gif doesnt represent all the jabs he landed. Maybe you didnt watch the fight, but he landed some decent ones.

Im not saying here that Connor is an amazing boxer, but boxing fanboys say he was trash. Which is completely bullshit. Look up reactions from proffesional boxers. Most of them say he did a lot better than they expected to do. But you fanboys cant admit that.

Mcgregor was embarrassing and the pros are mostly just being nice

Many MMA fighters dont do long distance running because you can get the same effect from other activities. And they dont have the same issue as Mcfuckface. It doesnt matter what you do as long as you get your heartrate up to the limit for a long period of time.

Long distance running is the only way to get a good cardio.

All the pros expected him to either get KO'd or get skunked on the scorecards so it isn't exactly hard to do better than expected

>Long distance running isnt the only way to get a good cardio.
Fix`d

>see shot coming
>turn around
>get hit in the kidney
>cry out for the referee
>there's no referee
>fall over
>get head stomped in
A-at least I won by points!

Anyone who defends McGregor is pants on head retarded and doesnt know a god damn thing about boxing. His punches were laughably weak. His defence was non existent. Floyd could have ended that fight in the first round if he wanted to. But he is a showman and his reputation was at stake. What type of legacy will he have left behind as the man who knocked out a poser within a minute of stepping into the ring. The public got fooled into a shitty hype match. They had to get their moneys worth. But anyone who has studied boxing knows that match was a slap in the face to any proffesional boxer. But cash is king and mcgregor is an excellent promoter.

I get that long distance running isn't the only good method for cardio. I'm saying McGregor doesn't do any real cardio to get similar results. He can fix his cardio but he just hasn't, there's nothing about his style that forces enough energy consumption for him to gas 3-4x faster than everyone else.

Right. It would have been much more significant and respected by the world of boxing if Floyd had fought Errol Spence or Ketih Thurman.

You're on drugs if you think Mayweather took this fight as seriously as the one with Pacquiao. You could tell he didn't even break a sweat the entire fight.

because they all expected him to get KOd in the first four rounds, but instead mayweather toyed with him to be entertaining, which he literally said in the post fight interview

Why were mcgregors scores so good if?

That's a webm sir

Left: little dick white boi who thought he was hard and got obliterated by a real one
Right: alpha black male who can literally beat the shit out of any white pussy on the planet

Mayweather carried him 10 rounds dude, he tried to give people a show lmao.

>...in boxing, the game he specializes in.

ITT all the dumb ass kids who still think McGregor put up a good fight against a 40 yr old man with no KO power at 154 who literally walked him down and ate his shots like they were a toddlers.

>This isn't about having boxed or not,

It is.

MMA and Boxing are highly different user. What part of this you dont understand?

Somebody who has gone at it for years for 12 rounds is obviously going to be above somebody who is designed to do, at most, 5 rounds (if things dont end earlier by the 2 round).

>never took a high school physics class

How was your trial session at SBG Ireland?

>t. doesnt actually watch boxing
the game plan was to let mcgregor gas himself

where was floyd gonna knock him out?

what thread are you reading nigger

everyone here is trying to act like maynigger knocking out mcmeme is some kind of accomplishment

Mcgregor used up all his energy in the first four rounds while mayweather only threw 4 punches in the first round
