    Half a billion dollars? Who the fuck does McGregor think he is?

    Floyd should retire from boxing after Berto, practice MMA for a year, then call this fool out. I'd bet my last quid on Mayweather beating him.

      I thought their sport was thriving, then why do they keep mentionning a supposedly dying sport like boxing for their pr stunts?

        This is getting weird. I'm a fan of MMA, but I think Arum supplied the blueprint to increase popularity by bringing up Mayweather's name & Dana printed it out & handed it out to too many UFC people.

        Randomly does anyone recall a top guy in a sport getting called out by so many people from another sport? Mayweather makes all sorts of mfers lose their **** in & out of boxing lol.

          Lol , I like and respect Mayweather but those MMA dudes with their arm bars / leg locks and take downs are of a different breed . Boxers couldn't hang with those dudes in a street fight or in a MMA cage , just like MMA guys couldn't hang with boxers in a formal boxing match although they'd fair much better boxing a boxer than a boxer would fighting a MMA fighter .

              I tried MMA training for about 4 days . Couldn't get use to blocking kicks with my chins which is the proper way to block a kick . I kept blocking those kicks with my thighs which was ok at first , until my thighs filled up with blood and my legs became stiff as stilts and I could no longer move . To be a MMA fighter FIRST requires getting use to the psychological aspect of bone to bone shin contact .

                  **** if they are smart enough to use Mayweather to build up their own sport more power to them. If boxing could somehow get Deontay Wilder talking bout he could score more touchdowns than some NFL cat & it captured the publics imagination like this Ronda **** it'd probably be good for boxing too.

                    As soon as these mma fighters get punched by a great boxer, they'll go down like a sack of rocks, no question.

                      Mcgregors purse was HUGE for his last fight for a UFC fighter atleast Dana White said his purse would be more than the gate for UFC 189, which was $7 Million.

                      I'm surprised not many here know Mcgregor. His last PPV did over a million.
