    I think Conor needed those 4 oz gloves.

      Yes, he accomplished something alright
      And you actually believed that loudmouth, dingleberry Dana White? Seems it's not just casuals but core fans that are just as gullible.

        I would back prime 135lb Mayweather to KO a 40yr old 115lb retired UFC champ in the cage, now do understand what Floyd actually did do .

        When boxers fight in MMA, they have all been shot to hell: Ray Mercer, James Toney, Ricardo Mayorga.

        Atleast here Mayweather was fighting a prime MMA fighter.

          That's what Ive been saying, flip the scenario and fight in the cage, giving Floyd the advantages Plastic Mac had.

          Prime Pretty Boy Floyd at 130 with 4oz gloves against a 40 yr old retired 115 UFC champ and Floyd would knock him out cold. Give Floyd the same MMA training that Connor had in boxing and Floyd slaughters them with those weight advantages, he would actually rag doll a guy that much smaller, Floyd is very strong physically we seen Connor couldn't man handle him and he is huge by comparison.

            I believed nothing, doesn't change the fact the claim was made. The gauntlet was thrown down. Now it's being spun into "he lasted 10 rounds doe".

              Several MMA fighters have been setting the interviewers straight after this fight. Conor got beat down and Mayweather did exactly what he wanted.

                Conor has been training boxing his whole career really. Just hadn't trained for a professional boxing match until this year. And he's been training exclusively boxing for most of the year.

                So a 29 year old Mayweather at 147 lbs who has some MMA training and gets several months to work MMA only, probably take down defense. Against a retired 40 year old MMA guy who weighs about 125, yeah, I think Mayweather KOs him quick as long as he can stuff the first couple takedown defenses. And as far as ground game, several months of jui jitsu is enough for regular joes to handle themselves. An elite athlete like Mayweather could be really good at Jui Jitsu in a few months.
