Speaking in a media scrum, on the same night, Conor McGregor explained that nothing is yet set in stone.
“We’ll see. We’re in the process of negotiations, there’s a couple of opponents across different sports now in play, there’s the boxing game also.”
The UFC superstar then explained that he wished to be a “true partner” with the UFC in his next fight.
“We’re in the contract negotiation stage. It’s got to, they’ve got to entice me now because, I came from a billion-dollar fight. I want equity, I want pay-per-view. I want to be a true partner. You have to entice me now. I want to be a partner. I want to be a promoter and I want to be a fighter for me to continue.”
