Floyd's quickness and defense is now being questioned, he was out for 2 years and he himself said that he is not the same anymore as he was 2 or more years ago. We will see whats the outcome this Aug 26.
Conventional wisdom would point to an easy Floyd victory on the basis of experience; McGregor has no boxing experience. This is the consensus in the boxing community. But I change my mind about McGregor's chances from zero to 40% for 2 reasons: 1) Floyd is turning 41 and 2) It's quite intimidating to face a foe whom you know can easily kill you if there were no referees. I still favor Floyd to win, but I won't be shock if McGregor knocks him out. If fact, if that happens, I'd be laughing. It's like karma came and bit Floyd for being too greedy and for all the abuses against women he committed in the past.
