So I am pretty sure McGregor's camp knows how to compensate with the changes in terms of Glove weight. As per the fight itself, the only way for McGregor to win is to KO Mayweather out. There is no way he will win on points.
Agreed - and given that some of the best pound for pound fighters of all time have failed to get a clean hit on Mayweather it's hard to see McGregor being the first to knock him out.
