In this dream scenario, two things would need to happen. Firstly, Mayweather would have to not be the same elite boxer we've become accustomed to seeing. He would have to completely underestimate McGregor's abilities and write the fight off as an easy payday. Then McGregor would have to get grimey.“There’s something about Conor McGregor. I’m telling you, there’s something about that dude. He’s got something going on. He’s got a little something extra special but he would need everything to line up."
Rogan pointed out that McGregor would also have the advantage in the size department. Mayweather last fought at 146 lbs, a pound heavier than McGregor weighed in at for his featherweight title fight against Jose Aldo. The difference is McGregor cut a lot to make championship weight, and that could play into his hands.“Mayweather would have to dismiss him as a threat. He’d have to not train hard enough, he’d have to not seriously consider the possibility that Conor connects on him and knocks him out. And then Conor would have to do some roughhousing. He’d have to hold him in the clinch. He’d have to hold him and hit him. He’d have to try and get off as many shots and bully him around and wear him out."
"It’s a possibility. He’s a much bigger man. He’s a much bigger man. If you compare the two of them frame-wise, if they ever do do it, and they’re standing right at each other, looking down at each other doing eye-to-eye, you’re gonna go ‘oh, shit.’ Conor’s a big fuck. He can make that 145-pound cut when he’s on death’s door, but Mayweather makes it easy."All hope is not lost.
