    You think you'd have the same chance as McGregor?

    True he hasn't had a boxing fight but he's an elite level fighter and has trained his whole career in "hit and and don't get hit" which is what essentially boxing is. Just because someone hasn't competed in a race doesn't mean they can't run.

      mcgregor will absolutely be the bigger guy but i still dont think his power translates and think canelo, cotto, and maidana just to name a few hit harder

        Mayweather splash been known to spar bigger fighters than himself when moving up in weight so the size difference isn't an issue. The only way this goes wrong for Mayweather is if he stopped training and comes in with huge hangover from a night of partying the night before the fight.

          oh so youve bought into the hype then not a shock, people could spoon feed u anything and youd believe it. people dont understand how different mma and boxing is, u cant just transition in 6 months. theres no such thing as inside fighting in mma, the whole stance is set up to avoid kicks. but yea cause hes practised 'hit and not get hit' im sure he will do well, cause as you said thats essentially what boxing is.

            I picture Conor coming down low with spider type movement and throwing the wildest most awkward shot from the ground up and KOing Floyd. Just watch, Floyd is not ready for this.

              McGregor hits harder than all of them.

                Conor is a big dude, i bet he rehydrates to around 170-180. I remember an interview with him about a month before a fight at 155 and he said he was 180.

                  No I haven't bought in to it. I just cringe when idiots like you talking like McGregor has as much chance as an average joe on the street. The guy is an elite level fighter. He'd destroy a moron like you in any discipline.

                    yeah he would destroy me. but i have the same chance against mayweather as mcgregor does, 0 percent chance.

                      The size difference will change as they get closer to making weight. And you will see how skinny Connor's legs are.
