Boxing legend Floyd “Money” Mayweather has revealed what he was saying to UFC Lightweight Champion Conor McGregor during their boxing match.
Throughout their fight, you could see both fighters share some trash talk to each other. During the post-fight press conference, Mayweather revealed what he had said to McGregor.
“Give the fans what they want to see. I pushed him and taunted him. ‘You still ain’t knocked me out, yet. I thought you said it wasn’t going past the fourth. Show me your real power.’ That’s all,” Mayweather said.
“Trash-talking that’s what fighters do – whether it’s MMA or boxing. We talk trash, that’s what we do. When the best compete against the best, we want to be pushed, and that’s how boxing and MMA goes.”
Mayweather went on to defeat McGregor in the 10th round by TKO. With this win, Mayweather improved his perfect boxing record to 50-0.
