Conor MCgregor wants $100 million to fight Floyd Mayweather

I dont think he's delusional,Im getting its a 100mil pot if you read the article . You would be bringing boxing and mma fans both to a ppv. Mma ppv pulls more revenue then boxing on the regular, the ppv take would be insane.

why would floyd let conor have 100 million of the purse

This would be the biggest fight of the 21st century and both fighters biggest pay day.

There is not once single reason for both fighters to not make this happen.

If he doesn't ask for it he definitely won't get it. Worst that can happen is they say 'no' to the $100 mil. Consider it a starting point for negotiations, it doesn't matter if you're worth it or not.

I think it will be just as big at least. For 20 years the narrative had been could Boxer X beat MMA fighter Y and so on. The two biggest names in their respective sports, a crossover platform. You draw fans from both sides. The curiosity factor alone will draw people impulsively. Doesn't matter if Nobody thinks Conor could win.

Such a bad move, he let his pride get the best of him. Once a undefeated Champion loses its usually down hill from there, just look at the past. On top of that he has to beat him again and then go back and fight some real hungry former champs in his own weight class. Huge mistake fighting Nate. Conner everything to lose/Nate everything to gain.

Nobody thought Michael Bisping had a chance against Luke Rockhold, ...right up until until he TKO'd him.

And the more outrageous stuff McGregor says, the more the press quotes him, which ends up being free publicity for his next fight. He sort of reminds me of Andy Kaufman, except McGregor is funnier.

There's no way Mayweather will fight under MMA rules. He'd get taken down and he'd lose. The thing he wants more than the $100MM is his perfect record. McGregor can't match Mayweather in pure boxing skills. So the match is a mismatch from the get go. If the fight does take place with some hybrid rules, the real loser will be the fans.
