McGregor Sesumbar Will Donate Mayweather If The Due
JAKARTA - Conor McGregor claims he controlled the course of the duel against Floyd Mayweather in 2017 despite his eventual defeat.
McGregor and Mayweather are at the center of one of the most anticipated boxing fights of 2017 in Las Vegas.
Now, in a tweet on Twitter, McGregor said that he controlled the initial round of the fight. The UFC man even boasts he will 'end' Mayweather if they do a rematch.
"I beat Floyd if we re-compete. Anunfortunate truth was that I brought him in the early rounds of playing pitty patty," McGregor said on Twitter.
"Every shot I fired earlier landed. From body to head I played ping pong. I came out with full strength, and today (if it was a rematch), I would end Floyd."
Mayweather was a fighter who seemed to dominate in a duel five years ago and he secured TKO in the tenth round.
The money clash with The Notorious proved to be his last professional fight, making his record 50 wins and zero defeats or draws.
It was reported that Mayweather earned about $280 million from the fight alone, explaining why he was referred to as 'The Money'.
It was McGregor's first and only boxing bout so far and it is believed that he brought home $130 million.
Since then, McGregor has suffered three defeats in his last four UFC fights. He also pulled out of the Octagon after breaking his leg against Dustin Poirier last year.
The two fighters may be able to meet again as Mayweather recently said he was in final negotiations against McGregor next year.
However, McGregor replied on Instagram by uploading a photo of himself fighting Mayweather with the caption: '#not interested.'
