Expect a fight announcement sometime next month . . .
Yesterday, Dana White was in NYC to promote UFC and was spotted on Fifth by TMZ Sports. The President of the brand soon confirmed that the Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor are nearing a contractual agreement to have a future fight before year’s end or early 2018.
Dana confirmed that Money would be receiving his $100 million deal and revealed that the Irish superstar would also be in line for a $75 million check. Being the biggest draw in the history of the pay-per-view and digital era, Floyd has been able to justify his negotiation.
However, his fighting opponent wasn’t in favor of receiving a lesser payday – taking to social media on Thursday afternoon about the situation. The Notorious One went to say, “I don’t need glasses I just like how they look on my face even though they tilt on me cos of my banged-up nose and ears I still feel like I look good happy Thursday everyone how’s that 75milli make your stomach feel?
It’s actually 100+ million if we go by the non-conservative numbers the fight. That’s not including my endorsements and business ventures. 28 years of age. Fresh cunt. Doubt me now.”
