Current UFC lightweight champion Conor McGregor believes he would defeat Floyd Mayweather in a rematch.<\/p>\n

“Mystic Mac” was stopped by the undefeated boxing legend via tenth-round TKO this past August <\/a>in Sin City.<\/p>\n

The brash Irish superstar claims that he learned a lot in his first encounter with “Money” and could use that knowledge to hand Mayweather his first career defeat in a rematch.<\/p>\n

\"Floyd<\/p>\n

“The Notorious” Conor McGregor shared these thoughts in his recent live interview <\/a>“An Evening with Conor McGregor”<\/em> in Scotland <\/p>\n

\u201cWhat\u2019s sickening me is that the little motherf**ker is retired now,\u201d<\/em> McGregor told Caroline Pearce at An Evening with Conor McGregor at Glasgow\u2019s SEC Armadillo venue (as transcribed by MMAFighting<\/a>).<\/p>\n

\u201cI know if I went another go with him, under boxing rules, I\u2019d get that win. I know that. I know by the feeling of him in the first fight. He had to change his whole approach. He fought completely different than he ever fought. He couldn\u2019t figure out what I was doing early on.”<\/em><\/p>\n

The brash Irishman continued:<\/p>\n

\u201cWith the lessons I learned from that first fight, if I had another go now, I\u2019d get him. At the same time, he\u2019s 50-0 and he\u2019s getting on, I\u2019m not gonna start calling him out. I\u2019m happy to see a fighter do well.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n

McGregor does not feel inclined to callout Mayweather for a rematch, but he does believe that Mayweather’s ridiculous spending habits could result in a second scrap.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a dangerous game we\u2019re in. I\u2019m not gonna start calling him out. I\u2019ll sit back and wait and I\u2019ll fight. Let\u2019s see how (Floyd) handles this round of money. I might get the phone call again and we may do it again. Originally, he said an MMA fight next. He was talking about an MMA fight next. That\u2019s what he said before the fight. So, what\u2019s he going to do? Does he want another fight? In my head I\u2019m thinking, get one of these boxing guys to come over into my world now.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
