Makes lots of sense for Connor really, massive one off pay day.

Also, will have an excuse of sorts if he looses, as it's different to what he normally does, and the rules will favour FM. imo.

Mayweather would pull his pants down IMO. Its a different sport if you cant take someone to the ground or kick them. It would just be a big payday.

Mayweather vs McGregor? **** isn't even worth talking about.

[Hollowman]

Reckon the UFC bosses will have no concerns at all about allowing their cash cow to get in the ring with Mayweather and be led round by his nose. That'll be top of their list of **** to get done immediately.

[Bender]

The problem i think Conor McGregor will have is he'll instinctively revert back to MMA style

[Hollowman]

The other problem will be the many punches to the face he'll receive whilst flailing around like he's trying to hit smoke.

There's as much chance of Elvis being Father Christmas.

It's a rather obvious negotiating tactic from CM.

[Gibbo]

A lot of talk that this isn't about Floyd at all and more Conor wanting to use the Ali act to renegotiate his contract, which only covers you if you have a boxing licence

[Alex]

So taking that to its illogical conclusion Conor wants to promote his own events?

Wikipedia says its being petitioned to be extended to MMA anyway.

[spud_gun]

Which apparently is one the many reasons Zuffa sold when they did.

Looking forward to Dominick Cruz v Cody Garbrandt tbh, very interesting match up of styles, and experience.

Some neck on that Garbrandt too.
