Mayweather (50-0, 27 KOs) is a few months removed from a blockbuster boxing match against McGregor, UFC’s biggest star. The ‘Money’ won the fight via TKO in the 10th round, and promised it was his last fight despite the lure of even more millions that could wait in any future boxing main events. Now comes news today the mega-fighter could be flirting with Mixed Martial Arts and a fight with the UFC.
Still as ESPN reports, the chance of Mayweather going into the UFC Octagon in a completely new combat sport are unlikely but it seems somewhat legit as the news broken by UFC boss Dana White himself. This year’s McGregor vs Mayweather super-fight seemed like it was too hard to believe, so why should we be surprised to see this?
