INGLEWOOD, Calif. -- Like the rest of us, Urijah Faber hasn't been been able to escape the never-ending chatter about a potential Floyd Mayweather vs. Conor McGregor fight.
And while few believe such a matchup will ever happen, Faber has a bit of advice for the UFC featherweight champion anyway: Don't do it.
Faber, who meets Dominick Cruz in a trilogy fight for the UFC bantamweight title on Saturday night at UFC 199, took a break from his back-and-forth banter with Cruz at Thursday's press conference to say McGregor shouldn't waste the prime of his career even thinking about boxing.
