Terence Crawford shares hilarious reaction to hypothetical MMA fight against Conor McGregor

Terence Crawford provided a hilarious reaction after a famous UFC persona recently asked for his take on a potential MMA fight against Conor McGregor. Crawford's reaction came in the form of a request for McGregor.

Crawford last fought against Israil Madrimov on Aug. 3, 2024, claiming the WBA and interim WBO super welterweight titles with a unanimous decision victory. The boxing community is awaiting 'Bud's' next fight, slated to be held against Canelo Alvarez.

The Nebraska native appeared as the guest in the latest episode of the Pound 4 Pound podcast, where the former UFC welterweight champ, Kamaru Usman, questioned whether he would accept a fight against McGregor under MMA rules.

Usman said:

"I don’t know your childhood, but I’m assuming you wrestled… So, if you wanted to fuel, you could sprawl and brawl… You and Conor [in a MMA fight], what do you think? You and Conor at the same weight."

Crawford came up with a hysterical request for McGregor, viewing it as his condition to accept the challenge. The 37-year-old said:

"Don't kick me, man. Conor, don't kick me."
