"He (Conor McGregor) doesn't want this fight. Floyd would put him upside down. It would be like any of you journalists fighting Floyd in the ring. Conor would look bad in the ring, that's for sure. McGregor is nothing but talkative. I already told the TV people to forget Floyd. Let's leave it aside. Here I am, a 64-year-old man, and I can still beat McGregor. Whenever he wants, let's go”, declared Mayweather's father, who added by being even more incisive by saying that the UFC lightweight champion knows nothing about boxing.
“I'm telling you right now, he can do all the things he wants, but this guy (McGregor) doesn't know anything about how to get his body in shape for a fight. In addition to the necessary preparation time and everything else he has for a high-level fight. He doesn’t know anything about boxing,” he concluded.
