Ultimate Fighting Championship’s biggest star in Conor McGregor may be sitting on the sidelines for quite some time as he prepares for one of the biggest fights of his career outside of the octagon.
“The Notorious” has been teasing a cross-sport super fight with Floyd Mayweather Jr. and after what seems like a full year of “will it, won’t it” happen, the fight could actually become a reality in the near future.
The biggest obstacle has removed itself from the equation in the form of Dana White, and White actually addressed how much he believes Conor stands to make if this fight happens, saying, “It depends on how much the fight sells. And if the fight sells as well as I think it can, Floyd makes a little north of $100 (million) and Conor makes $75 (million).”
McGregor has since responded to this claim, saying that he believes he stands to make more than just $75,000,000 for this super fight. He said on Instagram:
“I look good happy Thursday everyone how’s that 75milli make your stomach feel? It’s actually 100+ milli if we go by the non conservative numbers the fight will actually do and that’s not including my endorsements and business ventures. 28 years of age. Fresh c*nt. Doubt me now”
