Cormier: Khabib would get 'beat up' by Floyd

Perhaps you've heard the silly chatter about the possibility of Khabib Nurmagomedov fighting Floyd Mayweather.

Khabib called out the legendary boxer of the weekend. Mayweather put out a feeler on Twitter, calling out checkbooks.

Well, UFC "champ-champ" Daniel Cormier weighed in on the possibility of Khabib, his longtime teammate and friend, taking on Mayweather and pretty much spoke for just about everyone who follows the fight game, saying on "Ariel Helwani's MMA Show" on Monday ( via MMA Mania):

"Khabib better not try to box him. Khabib better not try to box Floyd Mayweather. What is he doing, man?' Cormier jokingly asked during an appearance on Ariel Helwani's MMA Show.

"Unless he's just going to go do it for money, because he is going to get beat. I love Khabib man but he is going to get beat up by Floyd Mayweather. He's crazy. He is going to start wrestling. Khabib is going to start wrestling in the boxing ring. He's going to get beat so bad he is going to start wrestling,"

Preach, D.C.

Though that wild-card of Khabib possibly losing his mind and bringing Mayweather to the ground could make it all worth it.
