Conor McGregor and Floyd Mayweather agree terms for super fight
The two combat sports stars have been verbally sparring for months while McGregor insisted his next fight will be in a boxing ring against Mayweather. Mayweather too has said he believes the fight will go ahead as he prepares to come out of retirement to face the UFC star. McGregor has never boxed professionally, but obtained a license in December and has been training for a fight in the ring.
The Irish Sun claim the deal is done between the fighters and that they are waiting on a third party to sign off on the contract. McGregor and Mayweather have reportedly settled on the fight purses and pay-per-view cuts, but have yet to put pen to paper. That may be because the third party is UFC boss Dana White who has already said he does not want his biggest star in the ring with a 49-0 boxer.
