My opinion on the potential Floyd Mayweather vs Conor McGregor boxing fight.

Floyd Mayweather vs Conor McGregor has been talked up recently in the media with both fighters having spoken publicly about the potential fight. Mayweather has mentioned the possible large sums of money that both him and McGregor could earn from the fight. Mayweather is the greatest boxer of his generation and McGregor is a fighter who has made a lot of noise in recent years. The way McGregor destroyed a dominant champion like José Aldo is evidence of his skill as a mixed martial artist. Mayweather has suggested that the potential fight could be closer than many people expect, however I strongly disagree. I think that Mayweather would easily win a boxing fight if the two were to fight. McGregor was out boxed by Nate Diaz, so what chance does he have against Mayweather? Boxing and MMA are just two different sports. If the fight was to be an MMA fight then McGregor would win, however it is a boxing fight so he will not. Mayweather is not known for his knock out power so I think McGregor might be able to last the full twelve rounds. Mayweather would use his speed and movement to out box McGregor and would be able to land punches at will. Mayweather would win a comfortable points decision.

How do you think the potential boxing fight between and Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor would go?
