5 Talking points from the Mayweather vs McGregor boxing match

Into the sunset

Floyd Mayweather retires after a fantastic career

50-0.

Let that sink in for a moment.

The greatest undefeated record in boxing thus far was the legendary Rocky Marciano's 49-0. And Floyd Mayweather Jr. just waltzed past that to script his name in the history books.

As a person, and indeed as a fighter, Floyd has always polarized opinion.

But like he displayed in the fight against Conor McGregor, he always finds a way to win. If that involves refusing to engage and fighting on the backfoot throughout the 12 rounds, that's what he unapologetically does.

Conversely, if that involved being cautious initially but exploding in the later rounds like he did against the Irishman, he does that too.

All in all, Floyd Mayweather is a serial winner. And he deserves to ride off into the sunset after an amazing career.
