Early stop? Twitter reacts to Floyd Mayweather's TKO of Conor McGregor in 'The Money Fight'

Wow, Robert Byrd explaining the final instructions like Conor's a first-grader. Probably not a great sign. #MayMac

— Mike Chiappetta MMA (@MikeChiappetta) August 27, 2017

Robert Byrd you suck. your bias is astounding.

— Sean Shelby (@seanshelby) August 27, 2017

LOL! Ref is basically like, "none of that MMA shit." #MayweatherMcGregor

— Mike Jackson, Esq. (@TheTruthJackson) August 27, 2017

Conor briefly crossed hands behind his back.

— Kevin Iole (@KevinI) August 27, 2017

Great 1st round by Conor ????

— Brad Pickett (@One_Punch) August 27, 2017

Conor taking his time. Like it.

— Chris Weidman (@ChrisWeidmanUFC) August 27, 2017

10-9 Mcgregor he threw more and landed more and was controlling the ring better. Who you got?

— Mark Muñoz (@mark_munoz) August 27, 2017

That's one round for Conor. Still think this fight is a joke? #MayweatherMcGregor

— Brendan Schaub (@BrendanSchaub) August 27, 2017

These are wild times that we live in

— Brandon Gibson (@SixGunGibson) August 27, 2017

2-0 Connor

— Chael Sonnen (@ChaelSonnen) August 27, 2017

Conor 2-0. Can he keep up the pace? #MayweatherVsMcGregor

— Colby Covington (@ColbyCovMMA) August 27, 2017

Shut up about that hammer fist. It's legal.

— Andre Fili (@TouchyFili) August 27, 2017

Why does Floyd duck down and hide where there's no legal punch instead of fight ??? No wonder everyone roots against him

— Steve Carl (@Steve_Carl) August 27, 2017

WTF!? HammerFists In Boxing #TakeAPoint #Conditioning #MayMac

— Tony Ferguson (@TonyFergusonXT) August 27, 2017

3 for mcgregor. Few things landing. Mayweather still not really offensive. Mcgregor with hammer fists everywhere

— Sarah Kaufman (@mmasarah) August 27, 2017

Conor "Boop'd!" him last round…

— The Spartan (@EliasTheodorou) August 27, 2017

Conor looks like he might be starting to slow. Let's see.

— Luke Thomas (@lthomasnews) August 27, 2017

4-0 @TheNotoriousMMA 3-1 at worst

— Joe Duffy (@Duffy_MMA) August 27, 2017

It's a wrap, McGregor is tired.

— Will Brooks (@ILLxWillBrooks) August 27, 2017

CMac is slowing down and #Mayweather is picking up on it. Constant FWD pressure is a motherfucka!! Conor still landing well.

— Aljamain Sterling (@FunkMaster_UFC) August 27, 2017

Momentum has taken a hard turn in Floyd's favor. But no one watching this fight can be even slightly unimpressed with Conor's effort so far.

— Brett Okamoto (@bokamotoESPN) August 27, 2017

Another solid round for Floyd Mayweather. I give him the 6 round 10-9. Conor McGregor up. 58-56. The tide seems to be turning. #MayMac

— Chamatkar Sandhu (@SandhuMMA) August 27, 2017

Conor has also done a great job dealing with Floyd's elbow shield

— Brandon Gibson (@SixGunGibson) August 27, 2017

He this tired from just throwing punches!! ?? the wrestling is the worst. Wait till I get my hands on this mfer!!

— Kevin MTP Lee (@MoTownPhenom) August 27, 2017

4-3 Mayweather . Loving mcgregor's iron will! #MayweatherMcGregor

— Derek Brunson (@DerekBrunson) August 27, 2017

Now it'll be the Floyd monologue. If only Conor had a better gas tank… this fight was entertaining, now it'll be sad

— Matheus Aquino (@MatheusDCAquino) August 27, 2017

This ref is a boss

— Ian McCall (@Unclecreepymma) August 27, 2017

Floyd pouring it on. Conor is in trouble.
