Gus Johnson, the broadcaster who called the blow-by-blow on Manny Pacquiao‘s victory over Shane Mosley and who also calls Strikeforce fights on Showtime, has weighed in on the frequently discussed subject of how a boxer would do in MMA. And he doesn’t like any boxer’s chances.

In a radio interview with Dan Patrick, Johnson was asked how Pacquiao would do in an MMA fight against an MMA fighter, and Johnson said it’s ridiculous to even think Pacquiao could last.

“He’d get killed,” Johnson said of Pacquiao in the cage. “No question. Tapped out, easily. In a minute.”
