The former pound-for-pound champion of the world, Floyd Mayweather, has been thinking about signing a contract with the UFC for quite some time now. But every time the UFC offers him a fight, he turns it down. In an interview with Kevin Hart for his new podcast Cold As Balls, Mayweather said he knows how much money he could make if he agreed to fight in MMA.
Subsequently, the 46-year-old stated, “I can go get a deal right now from the UFC. Probably a three-fight, four-fight, billion-dollar deal if that’s what I wanted.” Mayweather said he doesn’t have to worry about money, and he’s not in a hurry to get into the Octagon.
However, since his August 2017 boxing match with Conor McGregor, Mayweather has maintained his link to the UFC. Furthermore, both McGregor and fans would like to see a rematch between them to end their rivalry.
Khabib Nurmagomedov’s manager previously revealed to TMZ Sports that Mayweather is eager to engage in a bout. However, this fight is highly unlikely to happen, as the latter has shown no interest from his side.
Floyd Mayweather acknowledges Conor McGregor
Mayweather also spoke about his latest rival, Conor McGregor. In the same interview with Kevin Hart, according to the renowned boxer, McGregor is a ‘Caucasian’ version of himself.
Furthermore, he called him a hell of a knockoff, which doesn’t sound like a compliment at first. However, Mayweather was trying to compare McGregor’s skills to himself and stated that he is a knockoff version. Mayweather also stated that he takes his hat off in respect to him because he is an underdog.
Furthermore, Conor McGregor’s performance against Floyd Mayweather may not have been what fans wanted, but it was impressive. McGregor fought ten rounds against one of the most skilled boxers in the last 50 years in his boxing debut. It surely kept fans on the edge of their seats.
