Conor McGregor, former two-division UFC champion, promptly reacted to the loud announcement of the rematch between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao. The fight between the two legendary boxers is scheduled for September 19 in Las Vegas.
The star Irishman, known for his sharp remarks, did not hide his confidence in the outcome of the fight. On his X page, he succinctly wrote: “Floyd will beat him easily.”
The Mayweather and Pacquiao rematch will be the first professional boxing event at the innovative venue "The Sphere". The broadcast will be available live on the streaming platform Netflix, which will allow reaching a global audience without the traditional paid model.
Recall that the first fight between the American and the Filipino took place in May 2015, also in Las Vegas. At that time, Mayweather Jr. won by unanimous decision after a full 12-round fight.
