Dana White offers Mayweather, McGregor $25 million each for boxing match

You guys are forgetting that floyd's actual career is over (meaning he can fight whoever without worrying about a long term plan) and conor is an mma fighter who has never had a serious boxing match in his life they're basically offering him 25 million dollars for free, for a glorified sparring match if it was an mma match of course they would need to pay him 400 billion dollars to risk his health and take a guaranteed loss....... but its not... its a glorified sparring match with a guy who doesn't box

Floyd could literally not train, wake up from a night out drinking, get in the ring and spark Conor in under 3 rounds. This would be the easiest money he ever made. If Conor was a boxer he wouldn't even be in the WW top 100.

Mcgregor is the new PPV king, Floyd shalt bow down to him

The fact that they're discussing McGregor makes 8-10 million is sad, he should be making a lot more. Yet clowns like you say 15 mill for GGG against Candelita is more than generous. Exposing yourself on a daily basis!

Both sides are posturing. I don't even think Floyd really wants to fight. He has too much to lose in this scenario and UFC won't budge because they love to rob their fighters. This 25 mllion offer is another great example. That fight would generate 200 million easily yet he only wants to give out 50. How absurd is that? He countered mayweathers originals bullsh1t offer with one of his own. Floyd offered Conor $15 million only. RIGHT NOW, Conor is the one who should get the big money because he's the hottest thing in combat sports. Floyd's run was over after the horrible Pacquiao fight. He can't sell a million on PPV if his life depended on it. Unless it's vs GGG or something like that. A fight fans will tune into see cuz the chances of him losing are good. Floyd doesn't really too many have fans. Just haters. Conor had both and it shows in his PPV sales.

No doubt Floyd would fight McGregor in a ring, in a heartbeat. Easiest 100+ mil he's ever made.

If this fight does not get made cuz Mayweather didn't get his 100m, then he is definately ducking McGregor. He says he wants 100m cuz its his way of pricing himself out!

Dana and Conor are way out of their depth here. 25mil is less than Floyd got for fighting Andre fkn Berto. It'll get the casuals talking and calling Floyd a coward - but it won't go any way towards actually getting the fight signed. It's free publicity for Dana and Conor, that's all this situation is about. Remember, people..Dana is paid to attract eyeballs. He's not paid to be a matchmaker, he's not paid to be a decision-maker..he's a minority owner who is kept on board because he attracts heat. This whole situation is predictable and pointless.

Yeah sure, have Conor fight a boxing match against anyone else and see how many PPVs it sells compared to fighting Mayweather. $25 million is laughable for Mayweather, that's how far above Conor he is when $25m is chump change. LOL floyd might as well fight pacquiao again

Floyd knows he only has one option and that's Conor. Dana knows this too. Nobody is buying that PPV for Floyd. He can't sell sh1t at this point. Conor comes back in the UFC and sells another million. Floyd just sold like 300k last time out.

GOOGLE!!

The point is that Dana is the one that's actually making a responsible and realistic offer. One where both fighters and the UFC would gain. It's not like Floyd wouldn't get any piece of the PPV, he'd get a large enough cut to where he'd be walking away from the fight (A fight that he's favored heavily to win) with potentially $60-70M. For Floyd to offer McGregor 15M, he'd have to give him at least 60-70% of the PPV cut because McGregor has proven he can sell PPVs with anybody you put in front of him and Floyd has only proven he can sell with big names like Canelo and Pacquiao.

Dana White is a complete idiot just like skip bayless. I don't think he really want McGregor to fight Mayweather and is trying to sabotage the whole thing. You not going to beat Mayweather at the negotiating table and he is the A-side whether you like him or not. If you compare the ufc top 10 gates vs Mayweather last 10 gates it not even close.

:haha: :haha: Conor is such a star that Dana is offering him 8x his previous highest payday to fight Mayweather. Mayweather on the other hand was just offered 20% less than he made for Berto... and about 10x less than he made for Pacquiao after the back end. Showtime lost money on the Berto fight. Floyd is not going to get paid anywhere near that amount again unless he fights Pacquiao, Canelo or Conor. He's not going to see that kind of Payday again unless it's against a big name. Look what's happened to Pacquiao he's only getting $4M per fight now because his PPVs are bombing and the same is going to happen with Mayweather unless he fights a big name. McGregor made at least $13M vs. Eddie Alvarez who hadn't headlined a PPV in his life before. You could say that he's getting robbed by the UFC , but the UFC is obviously doing something right as they're worth $4.2B. It's by not blowing and overpaying fighters. PBC, TR, GBP are not on their level for a reason.

Anyone spitting on a 60-70M $ night (including PPV splits) would be a coward and a loser ...

Floyd made 32 million TO FIGHT BERTO. Come on man stop ****ing around this **** isn't happening.

No chance he takes $25m. Dana must know this.

dana think cause he robs his guys of money that floyds dumb enough to be robbed :rofl: lmao.. Plus, Dana White has Mark Hunt problems

If your sparring session could generate $500M in revenue, why would you settle for $25M? I honestly don't know how showtime gave him that much money besides Canelo and Pac Connors ppv #'s have been better then Floyds. This isn't hbo Floyd making 1 mil+. Conor makes 3 mil guarantee and about 20 mil altogether for the Diaz fight alone, yet Floyd offer of 15 mil is fair?
