#2 Flash knockout for Conor McGregor
This, of course, is the politically correct “what if” base that everyone seems to want to cover when rendering their analysis of the fight. While they mostly expect Floyd Mayweather to ease to victory, they’re being pretty cautious in affording McGregor at least a ‘puncher’s chance.’
But It would seem, given the ‘Touch of Death’ that he possesses in his left hand, that is all he needs.
Floyd’s traditionally struggled against southpaws and McGregor is as left-handed as they come. Coupled with his unorthodox, MMA-inspired fighting stance that the boxer would likely never have experienced before, McGregor is as unique a stylistic challenge for Mayweather as any he would have encountered.
An early sighter, an unexpected opening and in a blink of an eye... it’s lights out.
