Boxing superstar Terence Crawford said Wednesday he rejected a deal to fight UFC great Conor McGregor because he didn't want to participate in a mixed martial arts fight.
In separate interviews, Crawford and McGregor revealed that Turki Alalshikh, the chairman of Saudi Arabia's General Entertainment Authority, had offered them a two-fight agreement, with one in boxing and the other in MMA. McGregor said they would have been paid "hundreds of millions."
But while McGregor was ready to compete in both sports, Crawford declined.
