It's one thing for McGregor to be able to counterpunch against MMA fighters, who use square, open stances with minimal head movement to prepare for ground attacks and also usually have very looping punching form.

It's an entirely different thing to try to counterpunch Mayweather, who is the most slippery defensive fighter of this generation and whose boxing technique is matched probably only by Lomachenko among current fighters.

Dream on if you think McGregor can match Mayweather in counterpunching. The "Maidana strategy" of fighting inside and dirty while going for broke early is his ONLY chance. McGregor's stamina and lack of boxing technique and nous will ruin any minute chance he has of landing a lucky punch after four rounds or so.
