Every fighter and their mother will be eager for the incredibly lucrative chance to fight the boxer under the MMA ruleset.<\/p>\n<p>One fighter, however, is not willing to wait for Mayweather to move to MMA. That fighter is UFC lightweight Bobby Green. On Wednesday afternoon, Green took to Instagram to issue a fiery challenge to Mayweather.<\/p>\n<p>The UFC lightweight, who is currently in Mayweather&#8217;s backyard in Las Vegas, challenged the boxer to meet him at the UFC Performance Institute for a fight. He even assured that he wouldn&#8217;t shoot for a takedown or throw a kick.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We at the Performance Institute, out here in Vegas,&#8221; Green said in his post, which can be viewed above. &#8220;Hey I ran into <a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/mma-news\/tyron-woodley\/tyron-woodley-updates-on-floyd-mayweathers-mma-training\/\">T-Woodley<\/a>. Told a n***a, fuck Floyd, n***a. This is my house n***a. In Vegas, in your soil. Feeling real royal, in your soil. I told [Woodley] &#8216;I&#8217;m better than [Mayweather] at his own style.&#8217; Come see me. I won&#8217;t take your little bitch ass down, I won&#8217;t even kick your little bitch ass. Come see me!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>So there it is. Green wants to fight Floyd Mayweather on his own turf, in his own style. That&#8217;s a bold callout!<\/p>\n<p>Bobby Green last fought in January, when <a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/mma-news\/bobby-green\/ufc-charlotte-results-bobby-green-defeats-erik-koch\/\">he defeated Erik Koch by decision<\/a>. This win was preceded by an action-packed draw opposite Lando Vannata, and a trio of disappointing losses courtesy of Rashid Magomedov, Dustin Poirier and Edson Barboza. Now 24-8-1 in sum, Green was briefly linked to a UFC 222 showdown with Beneil Dariush, but was regrettably forced out of this contest with an injury.<\/p>\n<p>What do you think of his challenge to Floyd Mayweather?<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><i>This article first appeared on\u00a0<\/i><a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/\"><span class=\"s1\"><i>BJPenn.com<\/i><\/span><\/a><i>\u00a0on 3\/29\/2018.<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/Bg4DzfNH0Sl\/ If undefeated boxing legend Floyd Mayweather makes good on his recent comments and actually ventures into the UFC&#8217;s Octagon, he&#8217;s going to have a target the size of Texas on his back.
