pretty boy technician vs bulldog mcGregor in a boxing match with boxing rules , only 1 is a boxer the best of his generation
but the other is master of MMA and could fight dirty enough to make it interesting.
If they sanctioned a UFC fight between the same 2 people, Money gets killed. In a boxing match, unless McGregor somehow carves a way to take advantage of Floyd's age and get him open without Floyd locking him up, this fight won't go 6 rounds, FMM beats CM
I liken it too Bill Russell near end of his career vs Steph Curry now. The difference is Curry has to play by Russell rules. No 3's

That would be essentially a high-school practice, but with women instead of pylons.

Best WNBA team vs a d-1 mens team. Not necessarily a top d-1 mens team but any random one.

Artest - Oakley

I would rather pay 100 bucks to watch that fight rather than floyd connor.

Just imagine it in your heads.

OAKLEY WITH A THUNDEROUS RIGHT HOOK....Metta World peace's Trainer Freddie Roach yelling at MWP YOU GOT TO LET IT GO MWP YOU GOT TO LET RON BACK IN OR YOU AINT WINNIN IT!!! the crowd standing up in the 12th round Screaming RON RON RON RON

MWP gets up from the stool with a Grin in his face...And Oak just knows he just knows it....aaaah **** BiG Ron is back. and during the last round Ron just butchers oak im talking haymakers after haymakers But Oak aint to pussy. comes back with some cheap plays. low blows and tries to bite Rons nose clean off. Ref telling him 1 more of those OAK and your OUT! OAk yells back at the ref AINT YOU DOLANS COUSIN? **** YOU PUNK. So now Oak is pissed cause Dolans cousin is Reffin the game so all he sees is blood. He comes with the uppercut hitting Ron clean on the jaw...Ron is dizzy as all **** hell. But he musters up whatever he has left in him and comes back With a THUNDEROUS HAYMAKER knocking Oak down to the ground...but Ron aint got no legs working no more so he falls down with him...Roach screaming GET UP RON GET UP!!!!...But it's all too late cause Oak got up before him leaving Ron defeated...But it does not end there OAK starts beating the **** out of Dolans cousin...Lets call him Dave...So dave gets his **** kicked leaving Oak defated on a disqualification.

Ron Wins but Oak says in the postfight interview.

Oak: Dolan can suck my nutsack and just leaves pooof

So yeah ending needs some tuning.

This is perfect for the description that the OP said. Lavar would get absolutely destroyed by even an 80 year old Jordan, but I would definitely watch and laugh at that moron getting trashed on the court by Jordan.

i'd say Dominique Wilkins (Mayweather) VS LeBron (McGregor) in a Slam Dunk Contest.

'Nique is the specialist, LeBron could win that but we still don't know. While in a normal game (or MMA fight) there will be no contest.
