Mcgregor would have a lot of fun in this one, dunno if it's
too rude to say that this would be one of the easiest fights in his professional career. The main reason for saying this is that Mcgregor is a complete fighter and all that Mayweather could show us in this match is running away from his opponent what he has been doing in the last couple of years, aiming for point advanatage. There's no way he could possible run away from this dude.
I vote for this match and would love to see how Mayweather get a lesson for ruining boxing for so many years.
So... I hate Floyd Mayweather as much as the next sane person. He's just a vile, awful human being, the kind of guy you really would happily see get smacked in the face over and over.
That said, betting against him in a boxing match where he will almost certainly have set all the conditions (right down to the size of the ring and the gloves) probably isn't smart.
Saying that "all he could show us is running away aiming for a point advantage" is basically saying "all he could show us is how to easily win the fight".
McGregor's gas tank isn't exactly great. You saw how carefully he had to manage his energy to get through 25 minutes with Nate Diaz - how SLOW he had to fight. If Mayweather makes him chase in an even longer boxing match... that sounds like a recipe for a gassed out McGregor and an easy Mayweather win.
