    Why fight Pacquiao and end up giving up half the pot (while basically bringing all of the draw), when he can fight in the UFC, draw nearly 2m homes for the Diaz trilogy, and make a ton of money for his points on the back-end?

    Pacquiao isn't going to bring anywhere near the money that the Mayweather fight did; the crossover spectacle has been done, and Floyd's fanbase puts up far more money than Pacquiao's fanbase.

    McGregor-Pacquiao doesn't do 2m homes; McGregor-Diaz just night, and Nate Diaz is unlikely to demand 50% to make the fight.

        Conor doesn't want anymore limitations. Boxing is great but one of the most limited forms of fighting.

              Yep or Khabib or Diaz 3 or Holloway 2 etc etc. There are some great fights for Conor in UFC.
              Just stay the hell away from a boxing ring.

                  Conor doesn't get enough credit for the floyd fight. Of course he was gonna lose but he did give floyd problems because of his arm length and unorthodox style. And he really only lost cuz he gassed out. Floyd never legit hurt him.

                  That said, its wise for him to duck Pac at this point because hes still the biggest draw in MMA. If he gets stopped 2 times in a row (one by ref stoppage without a KD and one by getting hatton'd) then its all over for him
