Beat Floyd, Thurman, Spence, Canelo and Golovkin before retiring 5-0 (5 KO). Why not?

Theoretically, if Conor destroys Floyd... who can challenge him? Too unorthodox??

Conor's specialty is his hands... so is Floyds specialty... adding grappling would be meaningless because Floyd isn't testing his grappling skills in another sport that involves grappling. its Conor testing his hands in another sport that involves hands
again, im not gonna argue this i just am curious on peoples opinions. i still dont understand why you are actually trying to argue over these factoids that don't pertain to the thread. im guessing this whole fight has you mad. its alright dude, calm down
judging on your posts, you probably don't think anyone can beat Conor if he actually does destroy Floyd... seeing as how you constantly are avoiding a simple hypothetical that really.. not surprised though. i dont think many would think they could beat Conor if he destroys floyd

yea i saw that
heres 6 minutes of that same session...
not what the topic is about anyway so stop trying to spin it into another episode of "lets bash the conor/floyd fight because I dont like it and im a baby who lets my emotions and feelings bother me"
but i assume that you have no answer?
not confident in naming a boxer who you think could beat Conor should he destroy floyd? Its just a hypothetical.. not trying to convince you conor would win.. im trying to get an answer out of who you think could challenge his unorthodoxy if he proves you all wrong
Canelo
Golovlin
Ward
Kovalev
Any of the 168 pound fighters.
Lara
Probably both Charlo brothers
BJS
Spence
Thurman
That kid that fought Pacquiao Horn
Loma
Crawford

Boxing has been perfected over centuries. If any of that weird stuff worked some boxer would have stumbled on it and used it by now. An extra wide stance has long been proven not to work. Any boxer with a brain won't fall for a fake kick because he knows kicking isn't allowed. A superman punch is easy to see coming and no good boxer will get hit by one. They seldom land even in the UFC fights. The guy throwing a leaping punch would be off balance and easy to knock down while he is in the air. None of Conor's weird tactics will work. I know you saw the fight in which Diaz was out boxing a hurt and tired Conor so badly that Conor actually turned his back and ran away. This is the guy you think will destroy Mayweather in a boxing ring? You are dreaming about something you badly want to happen that will NOT happen. That's why most of us don't want to bother answer your question. If Conor pulls off a miracle and wins then ask this question. Right now the only people on this board who give Conor any real chance to win are MMA fans like you who come here once in a while.

The only possible way for him to beat Floyd is some unexpected turn of events during the fight like, I don't know, Floyd getting injured, thunderstrucked, hit by a bus etc....Not his non-existing boxing skills.
So logically, after that he should fight a boxer of his level. I'm thinking Rod Salka level fighter who would still be a massive favorite before the fight.
After reading predictions from certain fans however, it's clear to me that there's no such thing as logic when it comes to Conor McGregor.
So he should fight the winner of Canelo-GGG and get send back (or what's left of him) in a black bodybag to Ireland after the fight.

apparently from the pics hes even been utilizing Superman Punches as well in training (faking low kicks, coming with punches instead).. so you know hes gonna come in with some crazy funky **** durign the fight
So question is,
if Conor wins,
... and him having all these weird unorthodox attributes makes for a puzzle that most boxers haven't dealt with at this level,
which Boxer would be able to beat McGregor and his style if Floyd is not able to
Lomachenko schooling Conor would be great to watch. I'd pick Loma to KO McGregor despite the size difference.
3rd option would be any top 10 ranked welterweight or junior below the age of 40.
