My money is on McGregor. He's fast, strong and young. He's still doing what he does (knocking people OUT.) Mayweather is a great fighter, no doubt. But he has been out of the game for what...6 years now? He's rusty, AND he is only a boxer. McGregor is trained in mixed fighting styles. If Mayweather can't keep McGregor at a distance, he's going down, probably on the 3rd round specifically.
so, to make my entry: 3rd round TKO, Connor McGregor is the winner.
Another gutsy prediction.
Don't forget they're playing on boxing rules so McGregor can only use his fists. I agree Mayweather wouldn't last 3 seconds in the Octagon but McGregor is on Mayweather's turf here.
oh, snap. I didn't realize it was boxing rules. I'd still put McGregor to win, but in the 5th (don't change mine. I'll stick with it.) I still don't think Mayweather's 6 years outside of the ring is going to help him. I just hope he's been training since his last fight, otherwise it could get ugly.
