Conor McGregor tried to take over the world of boxing back in August by making his debut in the sport in a battle against undefeated pugilist legend Floyd Mayweather Jr. While “Notorious” came up short of taking over boxing and suffered a TKO loss, the UFC megastar still walked away with the payday of his career.
After taking part in the pay-per-view sales record breaking fight with Mayweather, some fight fans believed that getting “Notorious” to return to the octagon may be a difficult task. Now it would appear that UFC President Dana White has a comment on the topic.
Speaking to TMZ Sports, when asked about Conor McGregor’s return to the UFC, Dana White said:
“That’s what he wanted to do (fight at UFC 219). But when you make friggin’ 80 million bucks, things change. You never know. I said that before the fight. You make that kind of money, it can change you.”
