    The UFC 196 main draw isn't planning to break on his way to the top of the fighting World. In his recent interview with BT Sport's Gareth A. Davies, McGregor opened up on the possible match with boxing's (now retired) P4P long-time king Floyd Mayweather.

    "I'm open to discussions, come at me," said McGregor about fighting with Mayweather (transcription by Bleacherreport.com). "But I hold the key and it's me who holds the key to the fight game. I am open minded, I am open to discussion, I love competition, I love fighting. It would be nice to make that fight if the fans were interested and wanted to see it."


    Talking about this theoretical match-up that would likely become a 'billion dollar fight', McGregor was confident that he would accept a bout vs. Floyd.

    "I'm all about those numbers, Gareth, so I would definitely do that, no problem," said Conor.

    McGregor is set to make his UFC welterweight debut on March 5. His upcoming fight with Nate Diaz has already become one of the most heated and anticipated bouts in recent MMA history

    Floyd Mayweather would whoop his ass. You saw what happened when Ronda Rousey started talking shit.

    And I'm not even a Floyd Mayweather fan. I actually detest the man.

    He wouldn't whoop his ass. They both are counter strikers. They would stare at each other and talk shit waiting for the other person to bite. It would be boring as Hell
