White lampoons Mayweather, says McGregor will 'kick his ass'

Conor McGregor and Floyd Mayweather may never settle their beef in the ring, but that doesn't mean Dana White can't have some fun at the boxer's expense.

White recently responded to Mayweather's promise to slap McGregor by belittling the pugilist's diminutive frame and punching power, and issued a threat of his own.

"Floyd's about this tall (points towards the ground), his hands are like peanut brittle, he has to wrap them a million times so he doesn’t break his hands," White said, according to FOX Sports' Damon Martin. "Floyd better hope he don't run into Conor on the street. Let me tell you what, not only will Conor kick his ass, he'll kick the (expletive) out of everyone of his security guards, too."

"I would love to be there when Floyd tries to slap Conor McGregor. I promise you, Floyd, you will never try to walk up and slap Conor McGregor and you know it, too."

Once he'd had a laugh at Mayweather's expense, White reiterated previous comments regarding a long-entertained meeting in the ring between the now retired boxer and the Irishman, and deemed a street fight between the two even more of a long shot.

"It will never happen. Let me tell you what, that fight will happen before Floyd walks up and tries to slap Conor, I promise you that, too."
