Most pundits in both boxing and mixed martial arts don’t really think Conor McGregor would have a chance in a boxing match against Floyd Mayweather Jr. McGregor doesn’t have a single pro boxing fight under his belt. Meanwhile, Mayweather is 49-0, the best boxer of his generation and one of the best of all time.
Mayweather, though, argues that the matchup could be competitive. While it’s unclear if he truly believes it or if he’s just doing some pre-emptive promotion, “Money” said on Showtime Boxing last night that he thinks McGregor could put up a fight.
