if floyd beats conor in mma, say good bye to mma forever! it will put boxing back on the map and probably all mma fans will switch to boxing.. i was a huge boxing fan, then lost interest in boxing and became a huge mma fan. However, now mma sucks and ive switched back to boxing. i reckon the rest of mma fans will switch as well.

Floyd would make a huge money again but get some brain damage also. McGregor murders him if they fight by mma rules.
Floyd is old man, he is not even elite boxer anymore and no way he can be elite mma fighter. McGregor is elite mma ( ufc ) fighter.

Smart businessman doing what he has to do to make more money. Some people will follow him for an entire 8 months expecting him to actually fight and I don't think he will, he's too old now and his striking is infinitely less effective in MMA because you don't have the same defensive skills when looking for kicks, takedowns and elbows etc.
Plus the referee doesn't stop the fight when you turn your back or duck down and reset the fight
yep ^^

if this does happen, it will not be MMA
it will be a watered-down version, a circus fight
something like....
* in an octagon
* 4oz MMA gloves
* FULL striking - elbows, knees, etc
* NO kicking
* NO takedowns
Floyd rules
with no kicking/takedowns, the distance remains the same as boxing..... so, Floyd wins

If i could make 200 million dollars fighting nobodies with no skills in MMA and just stepping stones people use to build their records and i could train in a different contract sport that uses Boxing as one of it's major offensive elements and just trying and learning a knew type of sport to see how good i could be, while being retired and just starting a knew hobby and make 200 million and keep in shape, hell i would in a heart beat and everyone on this board would, if the UFC would pay you to train MMA and fight a couple of nobodies for huge amounts of money, you would be a fool not to.

Hope you find happiness in more than martial arts, Floyd
