It would appear a fight between Floyd 'Money' Mayweather & Conor McGregor is closer than you might think, with McGregor recently being granted a boxing license, this has the potential to be a huge fight, & a big pay day on both sides

if u ask me conor is just pump faking and dana white has said he is under contract and it wont happen, but im not gona think about it until i hear floyd say i want this fight, all he is saying now is hes retired and conor keeps using his name to build his brand so who knows

hate to be a downer here but as long as conor mcgregor is fighting in the ufc, he is bound to them in his contract.

also, I love conor and the way he always backs up all his talking when he get's into the octagon but straight boxing is a different story against one of the greatest boxers ever.

imo, conor destroys floyd in an MMA fight but floyd schools mystic mac in a boxing match.

if these two were to fight, who does everyone have their money on???? Personally i think may weather has this fight in his pocket, he is a master at winning fights in boxing, his defence is too good ad will outdo mcgregor easily... don't think conor stands a chance

It all depends on the grounds the fight will be taking place on. In a boxing ring mayweather wins with ease, even british champion level boxers would beat Mcgregor in a boxing match, but in MMA Mcgregor wins hands down. In a jalf way fight Mcgregor wins if it involves either kicks or grappling

Canelo Alvarez believes a prospective cross-codes showdown between Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor would be bad for boxing, Alvarez, who suffered his sole defeat in 50 fights when he was outpointed by Mayweather in 2013, he sais "It's a joke for boxing if that happens," and i happen to agree with him

yes thats true but conor is the ufc biggest draw and dana loves to make money, and this is a super money fight probably the biggest but i say its 60% it happens, alot can happen and alot can go wrong so we will see

Yeah this fight is all about the money, Theres no way on earth Mcgregor genuinely thinks he can beat Mayweather in a pure boxing match thats just ludicrous, British level boxers will beat him when it comes to pure boxing

i know and after seeing that video of conor boxing with that pro boxer he just looked nowhere near as confident as he did in the octagon, and he was getting tagged and not liking it at all, floyd will make him tired to just but defense

exactly, in the squared circle he was completely out of his element. Mayweather will actually knock him out on a boxing match, he's not a big puncher but he'll be tagging conor all night and the accumulation will have an effect
