Former WBC welterweight champion Victor Ortiz, who was defeated by Floyd Mayweather in 2011, decided to warn Conor McGregor before the fight against the American.

Ortiz spoke about the prohibited methods that Floyd can use.

"You are not allowed to beat your elbows, unless you are Floyd Mayweather. In our duel he beat me with his elbows. I felt a lot of such touches on his part, about 16 or 17.



I tried to continue to fight until the moment when I started to double in one eye. I thought it was a retina problem. Another eye began to swell, but not from a glove blow. He hit me with his elbow and was not punished for it. What I did afterwards was wrong, I hit him with my head, for which I paid dearly, "- admitted Ortiz.

Recall, the Mayweather-McGregor fight will be held August 26 in Las Vegas in the arena MGM Grand.

It is expected that both athletes will receive more than $ 100 million.
