FLOYD MAYWEATHER is already back in the gym for his Conor McGregor fight and preparing to whip the Irishman’s ass.
The 40-year-old looks in brilliant shape despite being out of the ring since September 2015 and spending his temporary retirement jet-setting around and opening strip clubs.
Mayweather‘s right hand man Leonard Ellerbe – who’s worked with the boxing legend for 21 years – says his man will dominate the fight but admits they have respect for the UFC star’s record.
LIVE: THE VERY LATEST UPDATES FROM McGREGOR VS MAYWEATHER
Ellerbe said: “Floyd has talked about nothing else other than fighting Conor McGregor, that’s 100% of his focus – all Floyd is focused on is fighting Conor McGregor and whooping his ass.
“This is a totally different field to the (Manny) Pacquiao fight because this is the unknown factor, when Conor McGregor steps in there – his stand up game, I’m very impressed with it, he don’t even look like he throws his shots hard, but he’s so slick with it – when he catches guys, even if he grazes them – it’s like damn he f***** them up.

McGregor v Mayweather Tips: 20/21 Diamond
IT IS nearly evens that Floyd Mayweather will win by KO, TKO or DQ.
That is a scarcely believable price.
McGregor simply does not have the boxing muscle memory to compete and has built his career in the 15-minute fights on the UFC.
It will not go the distance.
Sun Bets make it 20/21 that Mayweather will win by KO, TKO or DQ.
“He better not graze Floyd with one of them shots, I’ve seen Floyd buzzed in a fight, from them guys that swing wild punches, you know – s*** happened in the (Marcos) Maidana fight.
“I’m a realist, Floyd is 40-years-old, he’s got to be prepared for Conor McGregor, Conor McGregor’s been active and his been knocking guys out.
“We’d be a bunch of damn fools to sit around and sleep on this and listen to all the bulls***, Floyd knows Conor McGregor’s coming after him.”
