Yeah he did well. I do think he was knackered towards the end and that's when mayweather came strong. I think it's because he's not used to going for asking as a full boxing match. Would of been interesting ref hadn't of stopped it by two if he would of got a 2nd wind. Also if he lasted I think he probably could of won on points because he was stronger in the earlier rounds. Bet he was frustrated because he kept on going for a hammer punch to the back of the head like in UFC.

Mayweather would have walked it if it had gone to points. I was shocked the ref stopped it too..... Was waiting for the knockout haha
To my mind it was a one sided fight 2 completely different fight disciplines, it's like entering a horse in the grand national and tying it's back legs together. It was purely about making money both for the fighters but mainly the promoters etc. If they had fought under MMA rules Mayweather would not have lasted the first 3 rounds.

I think that they should have a rematch but in magregars ring
What ever it was, Mayweather is going to have a comfortable retirement and good luck to him, and he retires undefeated if I'm not mistaken.
