Comments Thread For: McGregor Open To "Box" Mayweather - If Numbers Make Sense

[Boxfan83]

No he is right, MeGregor is much bigger globally. Plus no way Floyd would draw that many of his fans across the water to watch him fight.

Honestly man, have you been to Vegas for a Floyd fight? Because I have, 2x's and let me tell you, brothas pack in from all over the U.S. to see him fight. I guarantee Floyd would sell out in Asia, Central/South America, Europe, Africa, Australlia etc. I dont see Mcgregor selling out in Africa, Asia or South America unless matched very precisely with that nation. Floyd could fight Pedro the used machete seller in Guatemala and sell out or Umbuku the diamond collector from Africa in an exhibition and get ppv buys... The only people that like Mcgregor are the Irish and "people of fair complexion."

At what point do MMA fans just admit the fact that McGregor uses Floyd's name to sell his fights?

Im waiting for a reporter to tell McGregor to STFU about a guy he will obviously never fight.

But he is willing, and willing to do it in a boxing ring.

He's just promoting his own fight. Rousey did it and McGregor does it. Ideally, more column inches = More PPV sold = More money in his pocket.

Not sure about that one, Floyd made his base in Vegas so who really knows how he does outside of it. That arena is pretty small to it doesnt take much to fill it. Outside the US I doubt Floyd fills the seats. UFC travels, Floyd sits in Vegas so thats a tough one to really assume.

Connor dislikes White a lot so he would listen to him anyway. Connor deals directly with one of the owners of the company. Not so sure Floyd would have an easy time, styles make fights and Connor brings a lot to the table, plus size and reach, great chin, and stance. Would be interesting.

UFC won't put conor in a boxing ring and UFC couldn't afford to put in the octagon.

[MrRolltide91]

No point in a boxing match, has to be a UFC fight which wouldn't happen because you already know why.

Yea UFC couldn't afford Floyd

[Mike_R]

Never going to happen. All hype.

It's irrelevant. He wouldn't get in an MMA match for $200m. It's his nature.
