FLOYD MAYWEATHER and Conor McGregor are on the verge of agreeing the richest fight in boxing history.

The Sun can reveal that undefeated Mayweather, considered one of the greatest boxers of all time, is set to go toe-to-toe with the UFC star in Las Vegas this summer.

Money Mayweather — currently retired with the joint best boxing record in history of 49 wins from 49 fights — is set to earn £100million in the boxing bout, while McGregor will take home £7million.

Both sides just have to agree on the purse and sign the paperwork — which sources say is imminent — and an announcement is likely to be made in the coming weeks.

A source told The Sun: “Floyd went mad after Conor said he would crush him and knock him out in 30 seconds, he’s obsessed with making Conor eat his words.

“Floyd is calling the shots. It’s strictly boxing and Conor will have to lose roughly 25lbs.

“It was agreed in principle on May 2, but Floyd wouldn’t reveal the identity of his opponent until last night when he told friends he’ll be fighting Conor.”

The outspoken pair have clashed before when Mayweather claimed the Irishman’s popularity was partly down to racism.

Money has been left fuming that McGregor has not been criticised for his trash-talking to the same degree as he has.

In an interview with Fight Hype, Mayweather said: “They say he talks a lot of trash and people praise him for it, but when I did it, they say I’m cocky and arrogant.

“So biased. Like I said before, all I’m saying is this: I ain’t racist at all, but I’m telling you racism still exists.”

Loudmouth cage fighter McGregor — a box office hit in the US — then challenged Mayweather to a boxing match to settle their differences.
