Jeff Mayweather: "Floyd could beat both of them back to back"

Jeff has confirmed his nephew is in ongoing talks to make this historic double happen where he would box both UFC stars on the same day in a world first double header.

He went on to confidently state that even though Floyd hasn't fought in a long time, he will make easy work of both and that both couldn't beat Floyd up even if he was 60 years old.

Speaking exclusively to VegasInsider.com, Jeff said, "Floyd is talking about the possibility of fighting McGregor and Khabib in the same day, which he could easily make happen. There have already been talks with Floyd and Dana White about making a deal.

"Floyd is no longer the top of his sport, but he'll beat both of them. He could beat both of them back to back, one in the day time, one in the night time - it doesn't matter, they'd have no chance, it's easy for him.

"Floyd said one in the daytime and one in the night, it'll be something that's never been done before. Double pay-per-view, expensive a** buy.  He'd knock Conor's a** out early because if he knows he has a second fight coming, he's not going to put on a show like last time. He'd beat the s***t out of Conor. 

"Floyd is a master of planning these things. He's the one that always turns nothing into something huge. These things are expected of him. It's evolution, times change. You've got to roll with it, and if you don't roll, you lose.

"Why would he stay retired when he can fight UFC guys that couldn't beat him up if he was f*****g 60 years old? At some point he does need to retire, but if he's gonna be fighting guys who never really boxed, why not carry on? He's gotten more than these guys could ever learn, so why not take the money?

"I'm sure it's gonna be hard for him to come back because he has been out of action for a while, but he's gonna get back into that same old mode - and when he gets into that mode, you pick any UFC fighter in the damn world, they're not gonna touch him. Simple."

CEO of Mayweather Promotions, Leonard Ellerbe, added, "You never know what will happen in combat sports, if there's an opportunity out there for Floyd to be the A-side in a situation where he's providing some sort of entertainment for the fans he'll make that decision.  

"The fact of the matter is, that if there's an opportunity and Floyd makes the decision to go get that kind of bag, then he'll do it. I will never put words in his mouth, if he ever wants to do something he'll let the world know."
