Conor McGregor is very confident that he’ll defeat Floyd Mayweather Jr., should the pair ever rematch.
Mayweather previously faced McGregor at the T-Mobile Arena in Paradise, Nevada on August 26, 2017.
Rightfully titled, ‘The Money Fight’, the fight was said to have had a whopping 4.3 million PPV buys, with Mayweather winning the fight via a 10th-round TKO.
Mayweather has since only competed in exhibition bouts, most recently picking up a win over RIZIN star Mikuru Asakura this past September.
Responding to a tweet from two-division undisputed titleholder Claressa Shields in which she addressed a comparison to Floyd Mayweather, McGregor told Shields, “You’ve way more venom then [sic] Floyd” and then launched into a familiar rant about how he would defeat Mayweather were they to fight again.
“I beat Floyd if we rematch,” McGregor wrote on Twitter. “Untold truth was it was me who carried him the early rounds playing pitty patty. Every single shot I threw early landed. From body to head I was playing ping pong. I come out full force, and today, I end Floyd.”
The duo have reportedly been discussing a two-fight contract, with one fight in the boxing ring and the other fight in the octagon.
