He's a talented guy, no debate about that, but he's completely out of his element and totally outmatched here. Believe me, I'd LOVE to see him level Mayweather. One big clean shot. Lights out on that dude. Yes please. Unfortunately I think the chance is slim.

My prediction: Floyd dances around Conor, taking no damage, and peppering Conor with little butterfly taps. Racks up the points while Conor gasses himself out looking for the big shot. it either goes the distance with Floyd winning on points, or, Conor gets so tired in the late rounds that he essentially becomes a punching bag. Hands down, eating shots, until a TKO is called.

Sharp prediction!

Btw, I am into may thai / kickboxing myself. Once in a while I train at the gym with the boxing dudes - totally different routine. Boxing is a lot harder than it may look. And like him or not, Mayweather is a brilliant boxer.
