Floyd Mayweather Jr.Will Train With Tyron Woodley For A Possible UFC Debut
McGregor v Mayweather II? Damn.
Per the Hollywood Beatdown, a TMZ show, UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley is set to begin training former pound-for-pound boxing champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. for a possible debut in the UFC. Woodley talks about his time discussing the concept with Mayweather and the prospects of one or "a few" fights for the latter in the Octagon in the video below: Mayweather took on UFC lightweight champion Conor McGregor in a boxing match in August 2017 and that's a fight Woodley identified. Mayweather and McGregor have teased a potential rematch in the UFC, but nothing beyond talk has taken place up to this point. Mayweather has yet to apply for an MMA license, but this is perhaps the first real evidence that Money is at least seriously considering the concept. The fight would be the biggest combat sports event of the year, as was the boxing match with McGregor in 2017. Woodley warns against taking the concept lightly. “You all think it’s a joke, but think about this: Floyd Mayweather is one of the best strikers of all time," Woodley said. "How many guys in the UFC can’t wrestle, can’t grapple, they consider themselves a stand-up fighter. If they have to stand across from one of the greatest strikers ever, they gonna be in a world of smoke. We’re already getting it set up.” Woodley believes Mayweather would need at last three months to prepare, but assures us this is a serious deal. We will see. Stay tuned for more information as it becomes available. https://www.forbes.com/sites/brianmazique/2018/03/11/floyd-mayweather-jr-will-train-with-tyron-woodley-for-a-possible-ufc-debut-video/#5d3c777a664a Last edited by T-post Tom; 03-12-2018 at 12:29 AM.. |

I can picture him tapping out from an armbar within the first 90 seconds of the fight.

People can pick up a decent understanding of grappling in 6 months, especially if they're training multiple times a day with world class trainers.

And your credentials are what exactly? Someone who watches fights and thinks they know something?

This will hurt the UFC down the road if this happens. Dana pays his guys peanuts.
UFC needs a fighters union. Dana going to pay the same purse as the boxing match? We all saw what happened to James Toney in 2008 or whenever that was. Why would anyone shell out $60-100 to see Floyd get choked out in under a min or 2?
