    to keep the integrity sound, since people don't know ufc's protocol, they just say ''conor's purse.'' ufc at least gets 70% of conor's purse.

    The ufc would continue making huge revenues with mcgregor. Therefore they're not going to sacrifice their $$$ lamb to mayweather in a boxing match without getting most of the cut. This is the whole payoff that writers don't want to report on. In theory, this fight alone, would have affected the ufc and mcgregor promotions, so at the very least, they would dictate mcgregor's share.

    It's mcgregor's biggest purse anyways, so he doesn't care how the ufc managed the splits.
    conor got his 30 million which is 10 times his biggest ufc purse... The ufc will keep the rest of ppv money and maybe give conor 10 or 20 million more

        nah, Paulie was there for more than just stamina. They wanted someone fast with movement so Conor could get used to making that kind of fighter uncomfortable.

          Who wouldn't be smiling after making that kind of money for what looked a bit like a sparring match. Conor seems a bit too pleased even in defeat after saying he'd destroy Floyd inside four rounds, but that shows all the hype to sell the fight. He convinced me. Funny thing, there was no such hype for the best fights in history but they delivered far better than what we see today. The golden era of boxing has been finished for a number of years already, but we still love the sport.

              Of course they made peace, they fooled people into paying $100 and now they both are gonna laugh about it while sipping on whiskey in St Tropez, Fr.

              Most people are sheep and will always be that way while others take advantage of it. Glad I watched the fight for free on Russian channel.

              In terms of the actual fight, it was a sparring match in which Floyd agreed didn't do s.it in the first rounds.

              To bad, Irish folks paid $500+ to watch this circus at arena

                  I also told my homie(UFC fanatic) the same thing lol.

                      They made a shytton of money thanks to those idiots that bought the fight.
                      I'm sure they must love each others.
