    Conor vs Nate Diaz
    - Conor didn't make use of the ring, he gassed out too early. He could have used the ring to set up traps. Roach is good at improving fighters who gas out.

    Conor is a very good striker in MMA, Roach can only enhance his striking. He's worked with MMA fighters before.

    Even though he'll lose to Mayweather, the skills gained from Roach will be well utilised as he returns to MMA.

    There are talks of him fighting Mayweather which to me is a great idea because it'll be a well publicised fight, $$, and good for boxing as Mayweather will win it. Moreover, the build up would be so fun and Conor at least in press conferences would absolutely rip Mayweather to shreds. Hopefully we could see Conor bring out the PBF trashtalker within Floyd.

    farce if this happens. In the squared circle Connor is a bum. In MMA Floyd is a bum. The kind of fans that will buy this if it comes off are the casuals who are clueless. Its called a mugging elsewhere.
