RE: [Vlog] Battle-hardened Mayweather outlasts McGregor to win by TKO. What next?
Exciting action! I figured ultimately the boxer would prevail since that is his realm and his specialty. An MMA artist has spread his training among a larger group of skills, many of which would not be useful in the boxing ring. Worse, the reactions and reflexes developed for MMA could hinder one in a boxing format since you would have to constantly be suppressing your developed reflex skills. In this case, both fighters represented themselves and their skills well. Absent an upset or lucky shot (which could easily have happened) it would be predictable that a top boxer would most probably beat a top mma fighter, in a boxing match. Interesting crossover between these 2 sports!
