Tyson Fury: McGregor-Mayweather rematch would be ‘great for boxing’
Photo by Steve Marcus/Getty ImagesFloyd Mayweather vs. Conor McGregor was one of the most lucrative boxing matches of all time, but not everyone’s in a hurry to see a rematch.
After McGregor dazzled fans against Donald ‘Cowboy’ Cerrone this past Saturday at UFC 246, most MMA fans want ‘The Notorious’ to stay put in the Octagon for the time being. But heavyweight boxer Tyson Fury, who is scheduled to rematch Deontay Wilder in February, thinks a MayMac rematch would be great for boxing and the entertainment business as a whole.
Fury also believes McGregor performed ‘quite well’ against Mayweather and believes the Irishman would be able to hold his own in a rematch.
