The Conor McGregor vs. Floyd Mayweather match rumor is back again with certain conditions such as $100 million cash for a boxing bout. After the "Notorious" Irishman won UFC 205 belt last Saturday in Madison Square Garden, NY, the pound-for-pound king also got the crowd's attention when he erupted to comparisons between him and the UFC champ.
Conor McGregor got to Mayweather without speaking to him directly
Earlier this year, the pound-for-pound king Floyd Mayweather admitted that he was the one who spread rumors regarding the Conor McGregor vs. Floyd Mayweather match. Now, he is sick and tired of all the comparisons that the "Notorious" Irishman is the "Floyd Mayweather" in MMA.
"If you say he's the Floyd Mayweather of the MMA, I'm trying to find out have you ever made $300 million in one night? Have you ever made $100 million in one night? Have you ever made $70 million in one night. So as far as saying he's the Floyd Mayweather of MMA - it's OK to say it but it's not true," the retired boxer said.
"I'm a elephant. An elephant don't beef with ants. Elephant is so large he don't even see ants," Mayweather added.
The "Notorious" One Demands $100 million for a Conor McGregor vs. Floyd Mayweather Boxing match
Meanwhile, the "Notorious" Irishman was out celebrating his win against Eddie Alvarez at the 1 Oak, NYC. McGregor took the DJ's mike and said: "Tell Floyd and Showtime, I'm coming. Tell him to go to them Showtime offices. I want $100 million cash to fight you under boxing rules cause he's afraid of a real fight."
These were the conditions set by the "Notorious" One in case such a Conor McGregor vs. Floyd Mayweather match is to happen, even under boxing conditions. Despite having no professional boxing record, UFC champ McGregor still wants to fight Mayweather, who recently retired with an undefeated record of 49-0.
Regardless if it is under boxing condition, UFC champ McGregor knows that Mayweather would never catch up to him under MMA rules.
Is the Conor McGregor vs. Floyd Mayweather match going to happen soon?
The war of the words between the two champions is ongoing but news about the Conor McGregor vs. Floyd Mayweather match has not been officially announced. However, with UFC champ McGregor's growing portfolio and Mayweather seemingly backfiring against the comparisons, a match might likely happen.
However, UFC champ Conor McGregor has still a long way to go since boxing is Floyd Mayweather's specialty. And after the Alvarez fight, the "Notorious" Irishman plans to take some time off so he could spend time and wait for his first child.
