His footwork alone counts as advanced karate. Any additional kicks are just a bonus.

His clinch game is pretty good too, got the better of McGregor which surprised me..

Even if he signed to fight Conor tomorrow, I doubt we would see him in the game. He likely wouldnt sign any likeness rights over and EA would have to pay for those separately. Getting Floyd to be in a game aint gonna be cheap.

He'd be in the game man. UFC would be paying him a ton and I'm sure it'd be in the contract. No reason for him not to have it in the contract if he's getting paid millions on millions imo

this is floyd mayweather were talking about. the guy gets a cut of the food and drink sold at his fights, he would defintly not just sign his likeness over as part of his contract

It will not be in the contract. I'm willing to bet it wont.

He wont be a "UFC" fighter. He will likely sign a one off fight and demand that Mayweather Promotions become a co-promoter. He isnt signing away his likeness rights when he's arguably the A side.

Maybe not. IDK. I think if he gets anywhere near the money being talked about he'll be in the game tho. UFC are just as stubborn and there way or no way with contracts as Floyd is. If not more.

Maybe not. We'll see how it plays out. I can see it going either way. It depends on the money the UFC are willing to spend. And if it's anywhere near as much as rumoured... Anything can happen. If it's not close to as much rumoured... I don't see Floyd fighting there anyway.
