Chad Ochocinco says he’s ready for Conor McGregor after his performance during tonight’s Floyd Mayweather vs Logan Paul boxing match. The former NFL wide receiver got a warm reception during his debut in the ring. He managed to go the distance against Brian Maxwell. After the fight, he implored his fans to take chances and not be afraid to fail. Social media loved the idea of this man being able to follow a dream and actually survive until the end of the match. The athlete said, “I think I’m ready for McGregor now,” with a smile on his face. He’s clearly joking, but you can never really tell what’s going to happen in the world of combat sports anymore. Things truly can take on a life of their own.
