No, Mayweather would not beat Conor in the cage under UFC rules unless he got very lucky. That's Conor's world and he is one of the best at it. He would have the same advantage over Mayweather in the cage that Mayweather had over him in the ring. He is an expert at cage fighting because that's what he has done for so many years just as Mayweather has boxed for so many years. Mayweather has no experience in the cage and he can't learn enough in a few months to defeat champion cage fighter Conor. Conor isn't considered a good wrestler by UFC standards but he is much better at fighting on the ground than Mayweather who has no experience at all at ground fighting. Conor has mastered blows with feet, elbows and knees while Mayweather is a great fist fighter only. Mayweather knows he can't beat Conor in the cage and would never agree to fight Conor in the cage.

He's got a punchers chance but 99 times out of 100 McGregor takes him out instantly with a kick to the leg or takedown and elbows or a choke or whatever.
But if Floyd lands a punch he could knock him out.

Floyd wouldn't even last 1 min. Shoot take down ground and pound his face in or choke out. 36 secs tops

do people forget what holly holm, a former boxing champion in multiple weight classes, did to the best female fighter in the UFC?
maybe now that floyd is beyond 40, but i wouldn't be surprised if floyd even at this age and in the octagon beats mcgregor

Originally posted by have_not View PostLol, TS is a troll. Floyd would arguably lose a 4 round boxing match against Conor, a guy who never boxed professional.
Floyd couldn't even knock out a totally gassed MMA fighter in his first boxing match.
If Floyd stepped in the Octagon with McGregor and only had 4 months to train I highly doubt he last one max two minutes
