Why the hell would he want to fight in mma. He can make more money in a single fight with Brook than he would make in fifty mma fights. He has no experience in that sport and would be a beginner. No mma guy is going to trade punches with him. They will take him to the ground the first chance they get and then Khan will be a fish on dry land. Doesn't he understand that mma fighters take many years to perfect their skills just as he has perfected his skills as a boxer for so many years? As usual Khan arrogantly overestimates his capabilities.

Khan's boxing ability is world's beyond McGregor's boxing ability; if you've seen McGregor-Diaz, you know that McGregor, if he tries to stand and fight, is there to be outboxed.
If McGregor lands something heavy, Khan is likely going to sleep, but, likely in his own mind, as long as he's not getting knocked out at Wembley by a Brit, he's cool with it (likely chalking the whole thing up to "MMA being different from boxing")Comment

Honestly, after seeing highlights from last night, I think Khan could beat McGregor
Khan is levels and levels and levels above McGregor as a puncher, and the speed advantage is huge for Khan
McGregor would have to bull his way inside and in the process eat a flurry of punches, which I don't think he could take, or hit Khan with a quick kick that takes him down
As much as we kill Khan for his chin, I'm not sure it would even be tested against McGregorComment

He is a warrior and being a warrior is going to get his brain turned into mush. Instead of being an idiot, he should try to win a few fights so people can respect him even a little bit. He got rocked by Canelo, why mention MMA? So he can get a jump kick to the brain and slip into a coma?Comment

Kinda getting tired of Khan talking for the sake of talking.
There's literally nothing substantial to see here.Comment

This fight is goingt o get made next trust me. Its a huge fight, and easy win for McGregor, Khan is so ****** he will fight Conor in MMA rules, just like James Toney, both Khan and Toney are brave guys who will fight anyone, but sometimes that is ******.
Conor will knock Khan out, Khan has a glass chin and Conor can strike and has long powerful punches and a granite chin.Comment

He will make more money in the UFC for one fight against McGregor than he did with Canelo.Why the hell would he want to fight in mma. He can make more money in a single fight with Brook than he would make in fifty mma fights. He has no experience in that sport and would be a beginner. No mma guy is going to trade punches with him.

Dana White gave James toney like 500k or a million dollars to fight Couture in MMA as a Sacrificial lamb.
Khan will get well over 5 million dollars to fight Conor, its called an investment, anything to make Boxing look bad and the intrigue of boxing vs MMA, Conor knocking out glass chin Khan or subbing him will help Dana again chit on boxing and transfer people over to MMA and he will say the same thing MMA is better than Boxing.
Its an investment for long term.Comment
