It's not just you.

[backinthegymbro]

yeah sure lol that's why he used 0 defensive skills and walked mcgregor down like he was the smaller man floyd is a 100% defensive boxer.

Do you know what the turtle stance means though? It's not evading punches and dancing around, it's letting someone punch themselves out you against your block. Which is what floyd did and which is also what he said at the end of the fight that that was his game plan.

And obviously that's not his best way of winning. He could've won on points again but like he said, he wanted to give the fans their money worth and also knock him out. This was a strategy to do this.

[Appoloin]

Fake.

[WestAfrica]

Why would Floyd even do this? It makes him look like a chump. And where was the promos for this match lmao I thought it was happening tomorrow.

money.
dude has nothing left to prove. Easiest 5 mil ever made.

[elterrible987]

Wait, do people actually think that was real?

The guy was falling over like he was in a WWE match.

Floyd hasn't knocked anyone down in over a decade and you think he's knocking a 20 year old guy down 4 times in one round, at 42 years old, having not trained, and throwing 50% power shots?

bros

You think the outcome wasnt realistic?

You realize this guy fights in the mid 120s and weighed in at 137lbs for this fight, cutting no weight. Mayweather weighed in 147 on the dot and probably was 150ish on fight night.

Mayweather's entire career was against heavier guys, most 10-15lbs heavier on fight night. Even manny pacquaio was heavier on fight night.

The mcgreggor fight? Mcgreggor was near 170lbs and had near 20lbs on Mayweather.

What on earth do you expect to happen when Mayweather fights a 125lb guy with no pro boxing experience? The outcome was completely realistic. If they wanted to build the guy up with a fixed fight, they would have dragged it out and made it more competitive.

All the guys mayweather went the distance with in his pro career were 10-15 lbs heavier. And they were experienced pros. Now you got a guy with no boxing experience who is 13lbs lighter. Boxers have different technique and punch far harder than MMA stand up guys, they dont have to guard against takedowns, kicks ect. McGreggor is an MMA KO artist, 20lbs bigger than Mayweather and Mayweather just strugged off his shots. From this little guys perspective, Mayweather hits like a damn MAC truck. He probably hits like a heavyweight MMA striker.

[b]yeah sure lol that's why he used 0 defensive skills and walked mcgregor down like he was the smaller man floyd is a 100% defensive boxer.

he wasn't even taking mcgregor's punching power serious the whole time and he made it seem like it was entertaining by carrying him.

you can watch the epilogue on youtube and he sometimes almost burst out in laughter when he is talking with his father in the corner.

Do you know what the turtle stance means though? It's not evading punches and dancing around, it's letting someone punch themselves out you against your block. Which is what floyd did and which is also what he said at the end of the fight that that was his game plan.

Yes he used a high guard / turtle shell defense. He has used that in previous fights as well. Similiar to Winky Wright and Joshua Clottey. It allows you to come forward in a defensive stance.

He used it for 3 real reasons vs McGreggor:

1. to fight more aggressively, mcgreggor was no real threat, so to give the fans a show
2. mcgreggor is a southpaw, the shoulder roll DOES still work but its less effective
3. Mayweather had a reach disadvantage vs mcgreggor, first fight he ever did that I can think of. He had to close the distance to land and the high guard is a great way to do that.


Definitely cant call it "using zero defensive skills". Someone like Hatton or Margarito are come forward offensive fighters. The high guard is used by come forward defensive fighters, you dont have to throw as much as you would coming forward with a normal guard.

co signed I mean defensive skills he didn't even bother to use his shoulder roll and lateral movement and footwork like he always does in his regular fights but just like you said.

13:52 - That punch wouldn't have dropped my dead grandmother. And lmao @ the flailing around on the floor.
14:55 - I've watched a chitload of fights in my life and I've never seen anyone go down like that. It looked exactly like a WWE fall.

I don't even know why I'm explaining it, if you don't look at those clips and think just fkin LOL then I don't know what to say. It was an exhibition fight in Japan.

[messomi]

never heard people complaining when floyd was fighting heavier people for the last part of his career but today everybody is making a huge issue out of this.


love the double standards people have.

and also him staggering is not staged lol it happens when you try to stand up too soon when your legs haven't fully recovered.

[IDidntMakeIt]

For people believing this a work:

Why? Why so humiliate your big domestic star like this? I would understand if it was the other way around, to make Tenshin even bigger star.

Japanese have always been weird. They gladly set a tiny grandma with no real fight experience to be slaughtered by Gaby Garcia. During the PRIDE days they used to sacrifice some of their pro wrestling heroes to foreign real fighters. But still, I do not think these were works, just ritual offerings to the Gods.

"staggering"

He literally jumped backwards.

You need to calm down. No one is claiming that Floyd couldn't beat Tenshin in a legit fight. I feel like that is how you're taking it.

I'm not even sure Floyd was in on it. He looked to be overly playful until he saw Tenshin throwing real punches, then he started throwing back. Still nowhere near full power though.

[backinthegymbro]

I think as long as 2 fighters make the weight, it's a fair fight. Even with the dumb rules of today which allow fighters to be significantly heavier on the actual day of the fight.

This japanese guy was legit a lot lighter on the day of the weigh in. It's like a middle weight beating a bantam weight.
It's just bs. And that's with disregarding the fact that the japanese guy isn't even a boxer.

[Carbonfibre]

this is tenshin more competitive fight.

guy can definitely take punch/leg kick to head


not sure anymore





edit: this fight is even worse he got lit up pretty good.

[ButcherSir]

fake and boring. fuk floyd

[tunafishha]

Fake or not, its meant to be entertainment.

[backinthegymbro]

Even though mayweather would've won, it be more interesting if he fought naoya inoue

[HipHopLyrics]

Lol he'd still be unconscious now if they put Inoue in there with him.

[Ravishing_Rick]

Anyone who think it's fixed is stupid on many levels

[Gainzzz]

Anyone who think it's fixed is stupid on many levels

Just the overwhelming majority of combat sport fans then eh

[DrewDarden]

Anyone who think it's fixed is stupid on many levels

I'm not outright saying anything is fixed but Japan has a long and storied history of worked and otherwise dubious fights.

This fight was strange from the beginning because Mayweather publicly agreed, then he said he wouldn't do it, and then he went back to saying he would.

It was strange because why would Rizin want to bring some guy from the other side of the world (who doesn't mean that much to Japanese fans anyway) and pay him millions of dollars to come beat up their franchise player? A twenty-year old fighter who they'll be trying to promote for years to come? And do it on Mayweathers terms LOL?

You have to admit the whole thing is weird given Japan's history of weird fights already.

And then watching that guy flopping around like a trout on the floor just seals it for me.

So something is up, I have no doubt. I don't know what it is though.

[Carbonfibre]

Anyone who think it's fixed is stupid on many levels

he is taking kicks to the head.

and doesn't go down.


so your telling me mayweather punches are hard as head kicks

[Unstumpable]

Definitely don't think it was fixed. First knockdown looked more like he lost balance and was pushed down, but on second viewing I can see how it prob caught him behind the ear and was effective. The other two knockdowns there's no denying that Mayweather knocked the fook out of him. After the first knockdown Tenshin wanted to answer back and got super aggressive and left himself wide open for Mayweather to place his shots. But the main thing that tells me it wasnt fixed besides the fact that it was meaningless match with the GOAT boxer and a nobody. Is Tenshins emotional reaction to losing. You can tell he's never been embarrassed that way before, and legitimately thought he was capable of standing there with Mayweather.

And just because the kid has taken kicks to the head doesn't mean he's indestructible. A well placed punch will drop him the same as anybody else. I think he was fine after the first knockdown, but after that second knockdown his brain was rattled.

[AWillis]

Why would Floyd even do this? It makes him look like a chump. And where was the promos for this match lmao I thought it was happening tomorrow.

because he still works for a payday, hasn't got much money left - and money defines him since his name. he is a slave for the dollar. and thinks this fight is impressive in his mind

[sumolgi]

It was an exhibition so they probably even rehearsed before it. Smart to keep it short so it didn't end with people chanting "money back" like the Ali Inoki farce.

[elterrible987]

He spent a decade training kick boxing. That includes your stance, defense and anticipation for taking kicks. He doesnt train for taking punches from a boxing stance. He had a months notice for this fight against one of the best boxers of all time. Even if you cant get out of the way, if you see a shot coming and 1. can brace for it and 2. are in the right stance to brace for it, you can take it better than a shot from an angle you didnt see.

Also he wasnt knocked unconscious. Balance plays an important roll in being knocked down, he has no training for the boxing stance and is off balance. Also if he is buzzed from an early shot and doesnt fully recover, you can easily be knocked down by a follow on blow even if it is less powerful. This guy didnt have his legs on him for the second half of the fight and kept falling over.

[XFactah416]

it looked to me like it was a planned "fun" exhibition for both guys.

ie. floyd wasn't going to try hard (evidenced by this guy throwing out lazy ass jabs and smiling out there), both guys give a show for the fans for 3 rounds, everyone walks out with no egos bruised. floyd gets his money and gets to expand his base in Asia, Japan gets to say their star went 3 rounds with Money Mayweather, everyone wins.

instead tenshin decides to start trying at around 2:15 and floyd decides to say **** this.

[Gainzzz]

You consistently prove you're every bit as dumb as you look, and you look like the product of generations of incests.

Why on EARTH would Rizn/The Japanese rig this fight? On what level does this fight make sense to rig in Mayweather's favor, for Rizn/Japanese MMA?

Why would they throw their biggest young rising Japanese start and throw him to the wolf to get embarrassed in less than 2 minutes? Are you honestly this fkn stupid?

How does rigging this fight make financial or cultural sense in any way, shape, or form?

Mayweather is running away with 9million, never coming back to fight for Rizn again, and Natsukawa's worth plummets, and is forever scarred for life from the most embarrassing beatdown of the last 30 years.

Please change your tampon, watch the video, and refute what I said. Because the ifs and whys are irrelevant. We have video evidence of dodgy behaviour. In an exhibition fight. In Japan.

Tenshin js a nobody outside of Asia. Do you really think they give a fuk about him “losing” to Floyd Mayweather in a boxing match? They will probably build his next fight as a huge comeback and he will be even more popular.

Also, say that to me on your real account fuker not on an alt and see what happens.

Edit: Jesus, I've just realised who you are LMAOOO.
