Floyd Mayweather Says 'You Name Him, I Beat Him' During Conor McGregor Training

During a workout Wednesday in preparation for his Aug. 26 clash with Conor McGregor, Floyd Mayweather employed some self-motivational tactics.

According to TMZ Sports, the 40-year-old veteran repeated to himself, "You name him. I beat him," throughout an hour-long workout at Ten Goose Boxing Gym in Van Nuys, California.

With plenty of media present, Mayweather also made it clear that he intends to rise to the occasion on the big stage:

"I be trying to tell ya'll ... I can get a black eye, a bloody nose. I can have a bad day in the gym. At the end of the day, I don't have a bad payday and I don't have a bad night under the lights. ... I get bumps, bruises ... but I don't have a bad night."

The dream bout between Mayweather and McGregor was finalized last week after a great deal of public posturing over the past several months.

Per ESPN's Dan Rafael, UFC president Dana White said on SportsCenter that the fight will take place at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on Aug. 26 and be contested at a weight limit of 154 lbs.

Mayweather is formerly the best pound-for-pound boxer in the world, and he will enter the event with a perfect professional record of 49-0.

Although Mayweather hasn't fought since 2015, McGregor has never been involved in a professional boxing match.

The current UFC lightweight champion is a plus-400 (4-1) underdog, according to OddsShark, while Mayweather is a minus-600 (17-100) favorite.
