Humanity has always been like this. A smaller % of the population has always been right over the majority.

If he got legit caught with a power punch is the only thing I can think of. That's kind of like saying I could homer off of a Verlander curve ball. Theoretically it could happen, but lol.

Conor doesn't understand what he's facing. Have you ever been "good" at something and then faced someone who is masterful at it? Whether that's math or golf, it's a humbling experience, and in this case Conor has only ever faced a challenge like this in his own discipline, once, and it wasn't on the same scale.
This isn't a question of physical ability, it's about skill. Just as Tom Brady doesn't have the strongest arm or the fastest feet, he's the best QB we've ever seen. Conor is younger and stronger, but he's not faster or smarter. Floyd has destroyed people who've had both advantages over him. No one would doubt Canello was younger and stronger than him and he still whipped his ass. Make no mistake, Conor would get annihilated by Canello right now, and Floyd beat him easily.
Ehh. It's showtime soon. Let's see what happens.
