EASY money for both, connor is gonna get slapped around for less than a round and wake up 15 dollars richer. Floyd is the obvious A side. And deserves it. Its in boxing and Floyd has sold more boxing matches than ANYONE...EVER! Connor has sold ZERO PPV BOXING matches: lets say connor has sold over 5 million ppvs in the last 5 years, Floyd has sold that many in the last 2 years, or 2 ppvs....lol

The funny part about this was Toney got paid $750000 while Couture got $450000 after bonuses... I'd say Toney got the last laugh on that fight. What was it a 1 minute choke out loss? He didn't even have to get punched. That was Toney's biggest payday in a long time I bet...

lol, yeah Toney physically I think looked sloppier than I have ever seen and thats saying a lot for Toney. He knew he would get taken down so I dont think he trained a minute for that fight. Quick 3/4 of a mill...

Best resumé? ****

If fighting over the hill dudes, back to back training camp dudes, pillow on hands dudes and every possible advantage that he might have gotten is good, then OK.

Name all these over the hill fighters please

Connor deserves a lot more than 15 million but on the up side, he would probably make in the 50-60 mil range if he gets even a decent split of the PPV profits b/c it will sell.

I won't buy it, but it would sell.

[Boxing Goat]

you must be ******ed or on crack or both..... Conor has never sold the amount ppv's floyd has....... Floyd vs canelo alone sold more than any conor fight...... Get your facts right because google is very easy to use.... While you are at it research floyd vs oscar and floyd vs manny numbers also.....

You're not very bright

He'd have to give McGregor like a 70% PPV split. Cause he's the one bringing in the viewers.

What ever you are drinking can't be healthy.

Floyd is hell bent on coming back for a 9 figure deal. $100 million. He can't comeback to fight anyone else and get that. Conor knows this. He's never made $10 mill in his life but he's the real draw here ATM. $15 mill won't be enough.

[RL_GMA]

Conor clocks in like $8-10 Mill on his own from the last year and change based off over seas endorsement deals / PPV rights / guarantee purse, etc along with his PPVs avg over 1 Mill buys currently. Though it's a ****** fight to begin with, McGregor can fight UFC contenders and still sell 1 Mill PPV buys just off his persona. As crazy as it may sound, Floyd might need McGregor more than McGregor needs him. Hear me out...

Floyd showing up at Pac vs Vargas was CLEARLY to get a gauge on what people thought of May v Pac 2. Being the demand wasn't there it went right back to the McGregor talk. Now again, the media has a big part in asking Floyd time and time again, but he can always say "Next Question..". He invites all the talk because essentially he knows it's the easiest and most money he can theoretically make, even bigger than fighting Manny Pacquioao again. Crazy as it sounds, Mayweather vs McGregor makes more than May v Pac 2, it just does.

That being said, if they were to actually do it, The UFC would obviously be involved and Dana and the new owners would want a cut on top of McGregor wanting a NICE B side guarantee and split. What are the chances of that happening? Pretty slim, but we can't front like McGregor wouldn't be a major piece to the pie when we talk about the revenue that fight would bring.

how much did floyd's last fight do?

did you google floyd vs oscar, floyd vs canelo and floyd vs manny???? Has conor mcquitter tapout ever done those numbers???? Ill wait
