Förra veckan fick vi se en video med Conor McGregor där han sparrades med den forne boxningsmästaren Chris van Heerden. Här får vi höra vad Heerden fick för intryck av den irländske UFC-mästarens boxning och vad han tror skulle hända i en eventuell match mot Floyd Mayweather.

I was excited. We’ve got questions, as a boxer and MMA fighter – we’ve always got that argument whether a stand up MMA fighter and a stand up boxer will give him trouble.
Honestly, what a humble, nice gent. He’s just such a cool guy. Honestly, I was surprised how cool Connor is. I’ve got so much respect for him. He is one hell of a hell of a nice guy.
With 16 oz. gloves I wasn’t fazed, at all. 4 oz gloves it’s a whole different story – one punch. Conor knows how to use his hands. … It’s not like he’s a bum. The man knows how to fight.
You know what he’s got good – his precision, his timing. That little bit of timing, he’s very good at that. His best punch is his counter left. And that’s it.
A boxer would beat an MMA fighter – professional boxer beats a professional MMA fighter in a stand up game, any day.
Mayweather wins, no doubt about it. Mayweather is the best. TBE as they say. He’s the absolute best. My opinion, it would be a one-sided fight. But, take nothing away from Conor. It takes one punch. We all know that in the fight world. It takes on punch.
And can Conor land a punch? Yes, he can. … But not on Floyd. Not on Floyd. … Not on Floyd.
If Floyd feels like playing around, that’s up to him. But Floyd can end it very quickly because of who Floyd is. Floyd is TBE.
There’s no way in this lifetime that Conor McGregor beats Floyd in a boxing match. No ways.
