By Ponciano Melo – After his disappointing knockout defeat to the rematch with Dustin Poirier, Conor McGregor is now urged by boxing legend George Foreman to end his MMA career and shift to boxing permanently.

McGregor who once crossed the sport of boxing in 2017 did more as a boxer inside the Octagon than a mixed martial artist, hence, Poirier kicked his way in against the Irish.

Although it was a defeat, Foreman saw the good in it.

“It’s hard for McGregor to accept it but he’s a better puncher than he is in MMA

“I’d rather see him in boxing matches now,” Foreman said in an article released by The Sun.

Not only Foreman acknowledge the potential of the UFC superstar but he also believes that McGregor has the capacity to defeat boxing’s only eight-division world champion, Manny Pacquiao.

\”I think if he has a fight with Pacquiao he can actually beat him – good rules, over ten rounds, McGregor can beat him.

“He’s already adjusted to boxing, he’s not going to do good in MMA anymore.

\”Pacquiao is very good as a matter of fact, but McGregor can beat him in a boxing match.”

Their fight was highly anticipated after both camps revealed same interest in making the match, however, it seemed like McGregor’s value fell down after the loss to Poirier.

Kyrie Irving courts LeBron James to join Mavs

The stories have been LeBron wanting Kyrie back, but this time it’s Irving who reached out for James to come to Dallas and play for the Mavericks next season.

The report quickly went viral as a potential Irving-James-Doncic big three is now brewing.

However, trading for LeBron James means a lot of players and future round picks for the Mavericks.

It can be recalled that James was trying to land Irving in the middle of the regular season, but the Lakers failed to do so which put Irving from Brooklyn to Dallas to team up with Luka Doncic.

They fell short of a playoff spot and now it seems Irving seriously wants another trophy with him luring James for an epic reunion.

Whether this fails due to the cap restriction, Irving could still possibly join James in the Lakers as LA looks to revamp its squad despite reaching the conference finals after a slow start of the season.
