Floyd Mayweather says it will be a victory for Conor McGregor if their Las Vegas fight goes the distance.

The five-weight world champion and UFC star McGregor have both predicted stoppage victories ahead of their eagerly awaited showdown at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on August 26,  live on Sky Sports Box Office.

And Mayweather admits that McGregor can claim a moral victory if he manages to reach the final bell.

“He believes it’s not going past four and I believe that it’s not going to go the distance at all,” said Mayweather at his media workout.

“He feels one way, I feel another way, we are both confident in our skills and we’ll just have to see.

“It is a victory for him. If it goes the distance, it’s a victory for him – in my eyes also.”
