    I believe he is going to fight McGregor in MMA and he even has a good chance to win this fight. He steamrolled McGregor even while holding back in the last rounds. He is naturally also the stronger guy and has a build that's difficult to throw around in grappling. It won't even come as far to the grappling because Floyd will just KO him as fast as possible.

    People overestimate grappling and kicking. If a fast, aggressive boxer is in front of you it ends like Mercer vs. Silva. Floyd is not aggressive but he just fought differenty against McGregor as we know him.

    This is ridiculous and biased.

    Citing Mercer Sylvia is a pretty poor example considering Syliva took a year off and was well over 300 lbs. Not that Mercer was young or anything, but why not bring up Couture vs. Toney? If anyone believes Mayweather could beat McGregor in MMA, they are just as delusional as the idiots who thought McGregor could beat Mayweather in boxing. It's just not going to happen.

    Trying to figure out if this is a troll or not.

    Because Toney was even worse than Silva at this stage of his career. What about prime Toney?

    It's not trolling, just my opinion. A good boxer will always beat a good MMA fighter in a MMA match, especially if the boxer learns some grappling before, just for case.

    I mean I agree with him to an extent. It's possible if he controls the distance with his jab. The thing that would danger him is if conor could take a punch.

    So a good boxer will beat a good MMA fighter, IF HE BECOMES AN MMA FIGHTER?
