Conor McGregor was game ― but man was he tired. Twitter weighed in on the Irishman’s technical knockout loss to Floyd Mayweather Jr. Saturday, saying fatigue did him in.
Fight fans jabbed at McGregor afterward.

McGregor is looking a bit fatigued (As am I). This is Floyd's time. That guy has insane endurance. pic.twitter.com/vdw2wg1NpX

McGregor's gastank was the difference in the fight. If he had the endurance in him, he'd have really run that close.

If McGregor could have maintained his stamina, he'd have KO'ed Mayweather. But Mayweather didn't start fighting till half the fight.

Idc what you guys say: #McGregor can box! He lost because of a lack of stamina.

Shout out to McGregor.... Showtime had Mayweather winning by one round before the TKO. Fatigue is what killed him
