Comments Thread For: Khabib's Dad Wants Mike Tyson, Loma Sr. For Mayweather Bout

[Eff Pandas]

If the UFC suspends him or takes his belt he might try this. I still say there is a possible legal way out of a UFC contract if its pressed cuz I believe the contracts the UFC is making these guys sign are illegal due to the alleged language that makes these contracts never ending if one has a belt.

Don't know that Loma Sr or Tyson would help him very much unless he's taking 2-5 years to train or something lol which isn't a reasonable time table cuz Floyd is turning 42 in a few months.

I honestly hope this fight does not happen, first off, there is absolutely no way Khabib wins a boxing match against Floyd, easy money grab for both, but not competitive at all! Khabib may be 27-0 in MMA, but he's 0-0 in a boxing ring, completely different sport, I wouldn't blame Floyd for taking this fight though, easy money and no risk.

I want this fight to happen for 1 reason. I like Khabib and want him to get a huge payday. Let him fight May and get his ass kicked. He will still have an undefeated MMA record. Ppl need to stop complaining. YOU DONT HAVE TO BUY IT. They will make millions regardless if some boycott it or not. So just let them make their money and draw attention to both sports and draw them closer as combat sports siblings. It works out great for the fan base of both sports. No issues here.

As for the competetive aspect of it, Khabib would do worse than Conor. Khabib Nurmagomedov is a master sambo grappler and wrestler. He only dropped McGregor after tiring him with wrestling and he fainted a takedown that McGregor bit on and than switched up and thew an overhand right that clipped Conor while his hands were down preparing to stuff the takedown. Khabib cannot do that in a boxing match so I dont think he would do near as well as Conor did against May because by MMA standards Conor is an A+ striker.

Based on what? He's a better fighter than Mcgregor, he can go the distance.

Hes a grappler though, hes hands arent nearly as good as Mcgregor, he generally only uses punches to set up a takedown. He's boxing is awful, if guys didnt fear hes takedowns so much theyd light him up.

Haha dude the majority of people on this website don't know enough about MMA to know what you're talking about. (You are correct however)

I personally have no interest in a boxing match between the 2. Enough people (for whatever reason) seem to think Floyd would win an MMA bout that I'd be down to see that. More to see people's reactions than anything else. I already know exactly how that fight looks without seeing it though lol

[Junbengreat]

I would like to see Khabib vs Canelo. So we can see a knockout

[Hatesrats]

Is this even a possibility??

[iamboxing]

Imagine "coach Tyson" and Mayweather talking trash in the buildup, that would be so lit!

I'd tune in just for this alone

Yes but it all doesn't matter, in the ring they both equally useless against Floyd, they can't box to save their lives. Khabib has superior stamina so he could go the distance with Floyd who can't punch very hard.
