That's only fair. And I can't stand Conor McGregor at all. Too bad that none of the top boxers of today won't step into the Octagon, I get it it's a bad career move. Any of the top boxer of today would get smashed in the UFC. But I bet Dana White would give them a stepping stone fight just to keep the crowd interested and give the boxer confidence. .

why would he turn that down? easy money.

Because it's one fight in the ring and one in the Octagon. It's the same as Mayweather calling out Khabib to box and Khabib turning it down, Khabib doesn't box. lol

ahh okay. didn't read that far. Thought it was just boxing. So dumb to think a boxer could just step into an octogon and not get wrecked.

Crawford lost his last fight to some chump IMO. Dude is getting old and is too small to fight Canelo.

IDK what his plans are. Both guys actually but Canelo is down to fight Conor. I honestly don't understand Conors' appeal other than his mouth nowadays.

Remember when Toney did and Randy just smashed him in about 1min ?

That's pretty much what would happen if say Floyd Mayweather or Tank Davis stepped into the Octagon. No takedown defense, no Guard, no escapes from Guard it would be brutal. And FWIW, McGregor's Guard sucks, actually his whole ground game sucks but it would look All-World vs any Bower.
