Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor fought. It finally happened, and now it’s finally over. Now, with the spectacle finished, we can comfortably discuss the fight as it played out. And fortunately for us here at Heavy Hands, the bout was a good deal more interesting than it had to be. We analyze Mayweather’s limited-but-effective pressure game, the improvements and failings of McGregor’s “MMA boxing,” and the lessons we hope to see him take back to the UFC cage.
After that, it’s on to a short preview of UFC Rotterdam, a mixed bag of a card that nonetheless contains a few very interesting fights. We analyze in brief and give our predictions.
Take a breath. Have a glass of iced tea. Enjoy the peace and quiet for a moment. Then, enjoy the show!
