McGregor vs Malignaggi would be the perfect fight for Conor to dip his feet in boxing

[Sup]

McGregor is bigger and stronger but Paulie has more boxing skills and fundamentals.

Plus it'd be hilarious if Paulie got abused and KO'd by a UFC fighter with a minimal boxing background. And it would be equally as funny if McGregor got embarrassed by one of boxing's weakest punchers and went crawling back to the UFC.

Paulie's already on record saying he'd beat McGregor's ass so there's that.

Here's the link to Paulie talking ****.

The trash talk would be on point too...

[Motofan]

Coner would get 12 rounds (or 10) to land something at least. But unless Paulie throws the fight he taps Coner to a swollen mess.

[Porter's Dad]

Paulie is so thoroughly mediocre that Conor might actually even win.

i'd like Conor to 'accidentally' forget he was boxing and 'accidentally' kick Paulie in the mouth

[HanzGruber]

The guy that sparred Conor (van heerden) said Paulie would school him lol

[Mr. Objectivity]

So floyd needs a retired loudmouth with no real legacy to soften up an MMA fighter. gotcha.

[TRTboy]

Conor would KO paulie's bum ass stiff.

[Zaryu]

Honestly, this is not a terrible fight. Paulie is a smart man. Win or lose, that would be good money, especially with both of them being trash talkers.

The problem for the MMA guy is that if he fights Paulie in a traditional boxing match, that's absolutely no room to negotiate anything different against Mayweather.
