Former world heavyweight boxing champion Tyson Fury believes Conor McGregor will take just 35 seconds to knock out Floyd Mayweather when the two men meet on August 26.

Mayweather is the big favourite to prevail when the pair go head-to-head in what promises to be an intriguing tussle. However, despite his unfamiliarity with the sweet science, Fury told iFL TV McGregor can get the job done quickly:

"I think McGregor will knock him out in the first 35 seconds, like he done to Jose Aldo" Fury said. "I think McGregor will do him inside one round. Come on McGregor!"

The boxer then said he was planning to call out Hulk Hogan in his next bout, suggesting his answers may well have been tongue in cheek.
