Former UFC champion in two weight classes Conor McGregor said that he discussed with the boxing legend Manny Pacquiao the possibility of holding a head-to-head match.
Let us remember that yesterday the star Irishman attended a boxing evening in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, where his colleague Francis Ngannou gave a serious fight, but lost a close split decision to Tyson Fury.
āOne of us in MMA needs to put an end to this winning streak for boxers. We're going to have our say and take the victory. It's time for mixed martial arts. I feel like IĀ as an individual can do this.
His Excellency [Turki Alalshih] brought me and Pacquiao together and we talked a little. We had a discussion. Two or three years ago, he and I were close to having a boxing fight in Saudi Arabia. I am confident that we will continue from where we left off,ā the Irishman said in an interview with TNT Sports.
