Conor McGregor would box Floyd Mayweather for $100 million

White went on to state that while McGregor’s absence would be felt, particularly as it removes two belts from circulation for a number of months, there was no panic at management level within the UFC.

There is just one caveat: 0 million in cold, hard cash. McGregor’s use of range has helped his takedown defense and if he can stay upright, he should be in a great position. This fight would be similar to the Nurmagomedov matchup, considering Woodley is a very powerful wrestler who can take him down and do serious damage on the canvas.

McGregor is good. Nobody denies it.

Could he step into a boxing ring? Do you think we will eventually see a showdown between the two?

“If you love the pure defence of boxing, you can appreciate what he does, but as a fighter, Floyd isn’t a fighter”. This guy talks a good game, but he also follows it up.

“He’s getting old now”. I don’t really care about rules, he can make all the rules he wants. That’s something I didn’t’ know. Mayweather retired from boxing following a unanimous decision triumph against Andre Berto on September 12, 2015. McGregor said. “I have no problem going to 170”.

“A lot of fighters in the sport of boxing may want to retire, but they have to fight because they have to”, Mayweather said to gathered reporters. White revealed in an interview with the LA Times that McGregor’s doesn’t want to add any stress to his long-time girlfriend Dee Devlin while she is pregnant, so he won’t be returning until mid 2017. He doesn’t care if he fights Conor.

Ultimate Fighting Championship’s (UFC) president Dana White has slammed Floyd Mayweather for his comments on Conor McGregor after the five division world champion boxer labeled comparison with the Irishman as disrespectful. It’s just defense and wearing somebody down. So, as far as trying to say he’s the Floyd Mayweather of MMA… Boxing shouldn’t be a problem. Mayweather’s long-awaited bout with Manny Pacquiao saw both fighters rake in more than $100 million after setting a record for pay-per-view buys with 4.4 million at $100/$80 for the HD/SD broadcasts. He knows how to handle pressure.

While athletes like McGregor and former women’s champion Ronda Rousey have established themselves as stars in the UFC, which has garnered them many opportunities outside mixed martial arts. The Tylt is an Advance Digital, Inc. property. The Tylt is a place where your opinion counts, literally.
