Heather Hardy: I don't know whether it would matter if there were 2 Conor McGregors in that ring

Heather Hardy, in some ways, comprehends the stupendous assignment Conor McGregor against Floyd Mayweather Jr.

Strong, a 35-year-old contender from Brooklyn, went 20-0 in her expert boxing profession before choosing to take the cash and prepare as an MMA warrior. 

In Hardy's MMA make a big appearance in 2017, she thumped out Alice Yauger at Bellator 180, making the change as effectively as possible. 

While McGregor is doing the inverse, going from MMA to boxing, Hardy comprehends what it takes to move between the games — and she doesn't think it will go well for McGregor. 

"What you're doing is you're putting Conor McGregor into a circumstance where he's keeping down nine-tenths of his armory and offering it to some individual like Floyd, who knows how to utilize his two hands and watch two hands superior to anybody on the planet," Hardy revealed to Business Insider. "Mayweather is an ace at perusing hands." 

Tough said she discovered boxing less demanding since moving to MMA. There are two weapons to make preparations for in boxing — no kicks, flying knees, or takedowns. In MMA, she must be at a sheltered separation from a wide range of assaults; in boxing, the separation is unique. 

McGregor's greatest points of interest entering the battle have been viewed as his size and his span. In any case, even at a nearer separate than MMA, Hardy doesn't know those components will help McGregor much. 

"Canelo Alvarez's size and tallness and reach didn't make a difference," Hardy stated, including that Mayweather "played with Canelo" in a 2013 matchup between the boxers. She included: "Canelo's a standout amongst other contenders out there — he played with him when they boxed. At the point when Mayweather boxed Canelo, he was playing, he was giggling, he made it look so natural. 

"I don't have the foggiest idea about that Conor McGregor, regardless of the possibility that there were two of him in that ring, could matter." 

Strong noticed that she was not attempting to minimize McGregor's ability or strength but rather said battling whom she called "the best boxer ever, on paper," was too enormous a test for a first expert fight. 

"In the event that both of those folks got in a battle in the city, McGregor would whoop his rear end," Hardy said. "He's going to go in there and battle the best boxer ever in his genius make a big appearance in boxing? That is to say, perhaps against a lesser boxer he'd do incredible." 

Strong said while there's no undeniable approach to beating Mayweather — it's not as though others haven't attempted — she would endeavor to locate a counter to Mayweather's go-to move. 

"One of Floyd's best moves in each battle is he slips back and counters with the correct hand," Hardy said. "Slip back, counter with the correct hand. I'd be endeavoring to work something off that ... It could be a fake, endeavor to motivate him to do it, possibly catch up with a 1-2, 1-2 so when Floyd tries to recline, he gets got with something. I don't know — it never worked — however I figure on the off chance that I needed to pick, I would do it." 

Strong said she likewise wouldn't encourage McGregor to attempt to thump Mayweather out, including that swinging uncontrollably and entering the ring uneasy would just open things up for Mayweather. 

Tough said at last it's Mayweather's battle to lose. 

"Mayweather can make this as long or as short as he needs," she said. "In the event that he needs to thump him out in the primary, he'll thump him out in the first. In the event that he needs to play with him for 12 adjusts, that is the manner by which it's going to go. He's going to win the battle precisely how he needs."
