Executive Director of RCC Boxing Promotions Alexey Titov named the possible purses of Khabib Nurmagomedov and Conor McGregor in a potential fight for the title of champion of the UFC.

"They certainly will not make it to the fight of Floyd with Conor. I do not know their exact purses, but I think that the overall prize can be around $15-20 million. In what proportion they divide it is unknown. These are very large numbers, especially for MMA. They are two very strong fighters, an unpredictable result, Conor is the best-selling fighter in the UFC, all these factors together will give good sales, plus competent marketing and promotion of the battle will bear the fruit. It will not make it to boxing, but boxing is already 100 years old and it's a classic," Titov said.
