Five years after their 2017 duel that captivated combat sports fans, the Floyd Mayweather issued an invitation to battle to Conor McGregor.
“I hope me and Conor meet in 2023 in a real fight“, emphasized the American boxer who had defeated the Irish fighter by technical knockout after ten rounds in their first meeting.
For that fight he himself had won – according to reports – about 300 million dollars (!), while the defeated McGregor was not left complaining with 100 million dollars. After all, the profits from pay-per-views, tickets, sponsors and other uses were huge for the promoters.
Mayweather, who is now 45 years old and undefeated in his career (50-0), is again waiting for a big check to fight. “We’ve already talked about money. Nine digits. You know you have to start at least 100 million when you talk to me“, he characteristically said.
In fact, Mayweather reportedly wants the fight not to take place indoors, but at the Raiders’ new stadium in Las Vegas, which holds 65,000 spectators, almost three times the usual number for boxing matches.
