Det har tidigare spekulerats att boxningsstjärnan Floyd Mayweather varit intresserad av en MMA-debut. Mayweathers lönekrav har varit enormt och det verkar inte särskilt troligt. Men genom UFC-kommentator Joe Rogan via Dana White, bekräftar UFCs VD att Mayweather är seriös och vill göra MMA-debut i UFC.
Floyd talked about it. This is apparently one thing I can tell you,” Rogan said. “Dana told me that Floyd wants to make a deal in the UFC. Like legitimately. So I texted him ‘is Floyd really talking about fighting MMA?’ He goes ‘yeah, he’s f**king crazy, I told him he’d get killed but he’s still talking about doing it.
