He probably didn't get knocked out. These rumours go around all the time, it usually turns out that a person got knocked down or hurt and it gets exaggerated. I bet it's something like that.

I back McGregor because he got Charlie Ward into the UFC despite Ward having no business fighting at that level and it ultimately resulted in him getting spiked like a human football.

The best part of that is that Galore Bofando is a 4-2 nobody who hadn't fought since he beat someone or something called "Kester Mamba" in 2015. They handpicked him to lose to Conor McGregor's Friend and then that happened.

e: both his losses are DQs from kneeing grounded opponents in the head

Before that win in 2015 he hadn't fought since 2012. How was this guy even on their radar.

When was the last time a major boxing match ended in some kind of shenanigans that caused everyone's crew to rush the ring and start punching each other's heads? Because it's cool when that happens. Other sports dont have that and I imagine a head kick would set that off.

It's happened at least once in a Mayweather fight after he took a low shot.

Dirrell-Uzcategui wasn't a massive event, but it did end in a in ring fight. That was a few months back.

Ugh, I owe the IRS, guess I better fight a 1980s karate movie villain with no professional boxing experience for another 100 millions dollars, this is very embarrassing to me, Floyd Mayweather, a man born without the organ that lets you feel shame.

Charlie Ward gave me a dirty look in the gym once and ever since I've been deeply satisfied whenever he gets knocked out in the UFC. (His chin is dust.)
