I can’t find any financial details.

I don’t think a deal is done or even imminent, but I’d like to see this fight happen.

It can’t go worse than Mayweather-Pacman.

I'm pretty sure it'll be whoever pays to watch this. If this is an MMA fight, Floyd goes down - but there's no way he'll agree to this. It's probably boxing, and in that setting McGregor has no chance. The idea of a guy who isn't a highly ranked pro boxer getting through Mayweather's defense is laughable, even at his age, and I'd have to see McGregor take a hard shot from a pro boxer to believe he could stand up through it. Mayweather will knock out McGregor by the fourth round at the latest.

I don’t so much mind the fight IF it’s simply Connor’s wish to see if He’s good enough to go toe to toe with a pro boxer- but I just get the feeling it’s a gimmick to hype the UFC more- I know we’ve had UFC against boxers in the past- but I wasn’t crazy about those matches either- I think making the transition from UFC to boxing would be easier than from boxing to UFC- but still- I suppose it will be interesting, but I expect it will be over wuickly- Mayweather the victor-
