Conor McGregor LATEST as Notorious breaks silence after 3.5 hour surgery, coach claims he was on track for win

YES HE CAN

Canelo Alvarez’s coach offered to help train Conor McGregor following the UFC star’s ‘surprising’ display against Floyd Mayweather.

McGregor lost his ring debut in 2017 against Mayweather in ten rounds, but raised eyebrows after a fast start.

He is yet to make a return to boxing after talks to face Manny Pacquiao collapsed following his loss to Dustin Poirier in January.

He told Little Giant Boxing, translated from Spanish: “Here we can support him. We can help to better his boxing and defence.

“Honestly, when he fought Mayweather he surprised me. He has a good counter. He has good footwork, waist movement and agility.

“Therefore, I think he would do good in boxing. Give it your best, keep working hard, don’t quit.”
