Normally I would agree, that an MMA fighter has no shot against Mayweather

In his last fight though when McGregor dropped Alvarez with that combination, I thought it was two punches until I saw the slow mo replay, and it was 4 punches. Have never seen a combo that quick at any weight class in MMA.

Also, Mayweather has at least a couple inch reach advantage on almost all his opponents. McGregor has a couple inch reach advantage on Mayweather I believe.

I can believe what I reading here. In a MMA or street fight, McGregor wins easily. Put on the gloves and box, Mayweather wins just as easily. It 2 totally different sports.

I wish Mayweather was a few years younger. He's slowed down considerably a few years ago. Lace up the gloves and Connor doesn't stand a chance against a 40 yo Mayweather. If they step inside the octagon I don't think Mayweather has the foot speed anymore. Ten years ago I think he could have won on Connor's turf.

Geesh nole... I have to say 99% of the time we are on THE SAME PAGE... but dam... Conner would take him... ZERO issues.

I could see a 3rd or 5th round knock out...

May, don't have POWER.... only speed.. boom

Stick to talking about hair dressing.

In a boxing match Connor would get ko'd by Floyd. Night and day in ability. Connor wouldn't connect and big difference between boxing gloves and mma gloves. Put mma gloves on Floyd and he ko's opponents too.

If every pro boxer he faced has never be able to knock out mayweather, why would anyone think a MMA guy can?

McGregor wouldn't be able to compete in boxing with any top 20 welterweights, nevermind Mayweather.

The striking isn't really the same as far as timing, hip movement and footwork go. It's just a different sport.

His power probably wouldn't even translate to bigger gloves.

He wIould have a better shot but he would get ko'd too.

lol,,, it is always about speed and aaccuracy,, thats Exactly a quote from mcgregor,,

and I would love to see the matchup,,, and i would take the +2500 all day long,,

but you are probably right,,, as mentioned,, the angles,,,

CM may know 50-100 dif boxing angles,,, and the top 20 guys know 200-300 different angles

LOL @ people saying McGregor would get knocked out

Mayweather has 1 KO in his last 10 fights.

He would win by dancing and tapping McGregor with his gloves

Look at the combo at :45


That is world class speed at any level, any sport

which is exactly why a good fighter would use a jab to set up the right hand and not lead with it. esp when you throw it that slo, unless it was in slo mo or something ha. floyd aint doing that man.
