Jeff Mayweather, the uncle of the former champion in five weight categories Floyd Mayweather, named the first fight and potential rematch of his nephew against UFC champion Conor McGregor exclusively a monetary issue.

"I think that for the first time, when Conor went to the boxing ring, and now, when McGregor wants to see Floyd in the octagon, he thought only about money. The only motive for the fight between Floyd and McGregor is money. I think that for the sake of such money you can take a chance," Jeff Mayweather said.
