Conor McGregor On How Much He Wants To Box Floyd Mayweather, UFC 205 Medical Suspensions, More

- UFC featherweight and lightweight champion Conor McGregor had a simple message for Floyd Mayweather. McGregor, still enjoying his post-UFC 205 win in New York City, talked with TMZ Sports about comments made by the retired boxing great, who said that McGregor was an "ant" piggybacking off his name.

"Say it to my face," McGregor shouted, when asked about Mayweather's trash talking.

McGregor today told TMZ Sports that he would be willing to fight Mayweather for the right price – $100 million.

"Much respect to Floyd. He's a solid businessman on what he's been able to do ... he's a f**king animal at what he's been able to do. But as far as real fighting ... as far as true pure unarmed combat ... Floyd don't want none of this," McGregor said. "He wants a boxing match, he doesn't want a fight. I want a $100 million cash to fight him under boxing rules ... he's afraid of a real fight."

McGregor and Mayweather have hit the mainstream since UFC 205, as even FOX Sports 1 sports shows are discussing a potential bout. McGregor, of course, has to decide if he wants one or both belts, and who he will defend against first.
