If there's one fighter who's familiar with the intricacies of Conor McGregor's boxing, it's MMA fan favorite Nate Diaz.
The Stockton slugger has traded blows in the Octagon with McGregor for almost 35 minutes, beating the Irishman via second-round submission at UFC 196 and losing a majority decision in the pulsating five-round rematch at UFC 202.
When asked how he thought 'The Notorious' would fare against boxing great Floyd Mayweather Jr. — a fight that has been in the works since McGregor beat Eddie Alvarez for the lightweight title at UFC 205 — Diaz was surprisingly complimentary of the 155-pound champion's skills.
