Both sides just have to agree on the purse and sign the paperwork — which sources say is imminent — and an announcement is likely to be made in the coming weeks.

A source told The Sun: “Floyd went mad after Conor said he would crush him and knock him out in 30 seconds, he’s obsessed with making Conor eat his words.

“Floyd is calling the shots. It’s strictly boxing and Conor will have to lose roughly 25lbs.

“It was agreed in principle on May 2, but Floyd wouldn’t reveal the identity of his opponent until last night when he told friends he’ll be fighting Conor.”

Woah. They're gonna make like a billion bucks a piece.

I will watch this if it happens, and mayweather will win since they're gonna box.

"Strictly boxing and Connor would have to lose 25lbs".

There isn't a boxer on earth that's going to beat Floyd in those conditions. Why the fuck would any non-boxer think this is a good idea?

Huuuuge money fight but this is about as carny as kangaroo boxing

McGregor would get wrecked too btw. But he wants the pay day

Conor doesn't give a shit about getting his head boxed in. He'll take the 10 million dollars and really retire.

Holy fuck, Dana you goddamn idiot

Conor clearly doesn't care about getting bopped, he wants that big payday and this would do it

Conor isn't stupid enough to think he can actually beat Mayweather.

If this happens then the guy really is just chasing the biggest payday he can get without worrying about the consequences.

I mean let's be real here, Mayweather would beat him, but he wouldn't crush him into a coma, that's not how he fights at all

Now what's the next step in your master plan?
He's going to box Mayweather? Yeah sorry but the dude is going to lose and lose hard when professional boxers can't get one over on Mayweather.

Aiii

So not worth it
This guy beat the guy with the best KO punch in the Sports-Entertainment business. Conor doesn't have a chance.

Conor wanted UFC200 money at least

Floyd wanted to be relevant after everyone stopped falling for his shit after paying for the bust Pacquiao fight

This accomplishes both and pisses off Dana, so it's 99% certainly happening

McGregor will get absolutely annihilated in a boxing match. Why anybody would pay like 80 for a Mayweather fight is beyond me.

They should just film them sitting across a table from each other for like an hour. That'd be more entertaining.

So is Connor just flat out breaching his UFC contract?
He's gonna lose every dime he makes on this fight in court
