Conor McGregor Says He'd Kill Floyd Mayweather in Esquire Chat with UFC Star
UFC featherweight challenger Conor McGregor believes he "would kill" Floyd Mayweather Jr. inside 30 seconds if the two ever came face-to-face.
The Irishman suggests any fighter who excels in one area isn't a specialist but should be considered "a rookie in ten other areas," reported during his chat with Chris Jones of Esquire. As such, he believes Pretty Boy would stand no chance in the Octagon:
If you can box, what happens if I grab hold of your legs? If you put me face-to-face with Floyd Mayweather—pound-for-pound boxing's best—if I fought Floyd, I would kill him in less than thirty seconds. It would take me less than thirty seconds to wrap around him like a boa constrictor and strangle him.
