Boxing superstar Floyd Mayweather Jr. has claimed that talks are underway for a rematch with Conor McGregor ahead of his exhibition with Japanese MMA fighter Mikuru Asakura at Saitama Super Arena on Saturday.
Mayweather, widely considered one of the greatest boxers of all time, defeated McGregor via 10th-round TKO in a 2017 boxing match that sold over 4.3 million PPV buys and saw both men earn a combined $410 million from the fight.
‘The Best Ever’ claims negotiations are underway for a rematch but that is undecided whether it will be an exhibition or a professional fight.
