NFT: Mayweather vs McGregor??

Big Rick in FL : 5/6/2016 9:38 am
According to Bleacher Report there's a real possibility this could happen. I don't think McGregor stands a chance in a boxing match, but I'd love to see it.

Would this be the biggest fight in boxing history?
this couldn't come close  
UConn4523 : 5/6/2016 9:44 am : link
to biggest boxing match in history. Maybe it will make a ton of money, if that's what you mean, but it should make for a horrid fight.
McGregor

Doesn't have a shot in hell against Floyd. It would be 12 rounds to none.
I would say

This if Mayweather is going to break the record and go 50-0 I rather watch him do it against a guy like McGregor who will at least attack him for 12 rounds unlike some of the chumps I have heard being matched up against him.
it would

have to be an MMA fight because there's no way in boxing

i'd rather see either of the diaz bros against mayweather in a boxing match. much better boxers

People who think this exhibition

I'm not certain he would last 12 rounds.
I'm looking foward

To Floyd putting on a dancing clinic for twelve rounds. McGregor should pick up a thing or two from floyd
Wow, just wow  
sjnyfan : 5/6/2016 10:47 am : link
What a clinic that would be by Mayweather. I understand why people dislike Floyd and that boxing has fallen off because it lacks top matches and its corruption. But I'd watch that just because of the lack of respect boxing gets from a skills standpoint vs. MMA over the past decade.

Again, the hate is warranted but 49-0 is exactly that. Undefeated. McGregor last 'boxed' as a teenager and he had two losses as a MMA fighter before the general public knew who he was. His hype is at ridiculous levels.
for those who remember Ali fighting a japanese  
gtt350 : 5/6/2016 10:52 am : link
Martial artist this would be more of the same. There basically wasn't,t any blows landed. I wouldn't,t mind
Floyd though getting a kick in the nuts
I meant biggest fight  
Big Rick in FL : 5/6/2016 11:40 am : link
When it comes to money/PPV buys. Not like it's the best actual fight between two great boxers.
gtt  
Beezer : 5/6/2016 11:47 am : link
You had to bring that up?

That was maybe the worst "boxing event" I have ever seen. Just terrible.
Ah Beez they got you on that one  
gtt350 : 5/6/2016 11:56 am : link
.
if they boxed  
PaulBlakeTSU : 5/6/2016 11:57 am : link
Mayweather would dominate and walk away with a clean sheet, if you will. If it's MMA, MacGregor would submit Mayweather quickly.
Paul, Mc Gregor wouldn't get close to him  
gtt350 : 5/6/2016 12:00 pm : link
He would eat jabs all night
MMA or not

PaulBlakeTSU : 5/6/2016 12:03 pm : link
disagree. Mayweater is completely unaccustomed to dealing with leg strikes and takedown maneuvers.

Mayweather's greatest strength is his defensive ability such that even when in close, opponents can't land clean shots at all. But in MMA, that goes out the window because of all the grappling.
Depends...  
Giant John : 5/6/2016 12:23 pm : link
Boxing match or UFC match? Boxing match McGregor is dead meat. Will be knocked out. UFC? Maybe has a pretty good chance.
Paul that's true but I think as soon as Mc Gregor try's a leg  
gtt350 : 5/6/2016 12:34 pm : link
Strike he gets knocked out. Floyd would toy with him imho
neither stands a chance  
UConn4523 : 5/6/2016 1:10 pm : link
in the others respective sports.
Some of you guys actually believe this is a possibility?  
GiantFilthy : 5/6/2016 1:13 pm : link
Lordy.

I don't think Floyd would be able to toy with shit with a professional MMA fighter going at his lower body. Straight boxing he'd murder though.

This. The best boxer in the world against a UFC scrub in a MMA match is over in minutes because of lack of familiarity, skills, and training. The same is true of the best MMA fighter fighting a chump boxer. The real world results of guys trying this make it pretty obvious that years of training in a specific sport don't translate over to much use when the rules and sport are completely different.
It would be boxing

No way in hell Floyd would get in that cage. Nor should he
