How do you beat Mayweather? -If u had "a gun to ur head" explain how McGregor wins?

[USMCer]

What would work against Floyd? Even if you don't think Conor has it, what would beat Floyd? What styles, what attributes, what techniques, work against Floyd?

... AND...

It's NOT going to happen, blah, blah... yeah, we know. But if you had a "gun to your head" explain how Conor beats Floyd. Serious question, playing devil's advocate, if you're forced to analyse Conor's game, etc... How *could* it happen?

- What attributes does Conor have, better than Floyd?
- What has worked in the past vs Floyd that Conor could exploit?
- What has Floyd not seen before that Conor could surprise with?
... etc...

Somehow, some way, the overwhelming odds in favor of Mayweather, mange to manifest themselves into one big cluster of awesomeness that gets dumped in the middle of the ring. Then, when Mayweather is skillfully avoiding a wild McGregor haymaker, he is tripped up by said cluster, and breaks his leg. In a hilarious twist, the judges (while laughing uncontrollably and holding pens to their scorecards) scribble something that resembles "TKO", and that's the result.

Or, McGregor comes in really well hydrated, and lands a miracle right hand that will change the path of boxing permanently.

I really can't think of any way McG can win, other than a flash KO. An elite skillset up against a rookie skillset is a huge mismatch.

You have no thoughts? You don't know enough about Floyd, or about Boxing (or Conor), to give an opinion?

Bully him against the ropes, Pound his body, arms, shoulders, chest ect...

If it happens, it's by doing something awkward that Floyd doesn't expect. Mayweather trains to react to certain punches and angles (all boxers do). If you can draw a movement out and throw something unexpected, there's a chance to catch him.

That said, if Pac tried that and failed, then no way in hell is a hypejob that lost to nate Diaz going to pull it off.

McGregor isnt capable of doing the things he needs to do to win (other than a lucky punch)....but he would need god level conditioning.....high volume, go to the body, also use awkward angles to throw punches...an iron chin too cause floyd is going to touch it up all night.

The style to beat him has been employed several times (i.e. Castillo 1, Maidana 1, DLH, Augstus).. Connor can't employ that style

What's sad is that Van Heerden, all of 2" less in reach, absolutely toyed with McG in sparring and made him look like exactly what he is - a rookie.

Even though I won't be buying this farce, I look forward to reading the reports afterwards that say Mayweather countered him for 12 rounds. It'll be death by 1000 paper cuts.
