Floyd Mayweather Sr., father and trainer for Floyd Mayweather Jr., believes that even at his age of 64 - he would wipe the floor with UFC superstar Conor McGregor.
Last month, Mayweather Sr. and McGregor traded words during a four city media tour to promote McGregor's upcoming fight with Floyd Jr.
McGregor, who is a two-division champion in the UFC, will make his professional boxing debut on August 26th, when he faces Mayweather Jr. at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Showtime Pay-Per-View will carry the fight.
Mayweather Sr. has watched some of McGregor's fights in the UFC and he's not impressed with his ability.
He expects that his son will obliterate McGregor when they step in the ring in a few weeks. Mayweather Sr., 40 years old, is coming back for the first time since retiring from the sport in September of 2015.
"I didn’t have to see him, I told [McGregor] what I would do to him myself. He’s 200 pounds of nonsense, that’s all he is and believe me, those 200 pounds on him, I’d take all that weight off of him, believe me. I already told him and I said, 'Man, you’re 27 years old and I’m 64 years old and I would light you up. You don’t even know what’s going to hit you.' I said to him, 'You don’t have to worry about Floyd because you won’t be fighting him, because when I get through with you, there ain’t nothing left, believe me,,'” Mayweather Sr. told On The Ropes Boxing Radio.
"Conor wouldn’t even put a hand on me, believe me. He would never hit me either, I got that shell that my trainer taught me. I can walk him down, I can let him throw punches all day long, hard as he wants to and he ain’t never gonna hit me, trust me. If he fights Floyd, when Floyd gets through with him he can come holler at the old man."
