Floyd's very calculated, there's no reason for him to end the show in round 1. A prolonged beating where he lands every punch he throws over a few rounds before stopping him would be far more impressive. If he landed a beaut in the first that ended the fight you'd have clowns saying it's a fluke punch and calling for a rematch.

ROCKMAN wrote: » One of the Reasons I think Mayweather could open up on McGregor and try finish it in the RD 1 ,Is McGregor's pre fight comments and actions ,you know he is going to go over the top at one of the press conference /weight-in etc which could lead to a very pissed off and driven Mayweather getting in the ring. Also as I say before will be very interesting to see how McGregor can take/deal with a few body shots from a Pro boxer.
