De La Hoya: Mayweather would tap out in 10 seconds in MMA fight
Joe Camporeale / USA TODAY Sports
Oscar De La Hoya doesn't think Floyd Mayweather Jr. could last more than a few seconds in the Octagon.
Mayweather improved his professional boxing record to 50-0 with his victory over UFC star Conor McGregor in August, but if the roles were reversed, De La Hoya predicts Mayweather would struggle.
"Tapped out in 10 seconds," De La Hoya told TMZ Sports.

Dana White claimed last month Mayweather was in talks with the UFC for a potential move into mixed martial arts, which was later refuted by the boxer.
