Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor are in talks for a two-fight deal worth $1.5 billion. The interesting fact is that their highly anticipated rematch would be followed by an MMA bout. The news of this big storyline, which would see the two most decorative athletes going head-to-head, has created a buzz in the combat sports world.

The former five-weight division champ hung up his gloves after stopping ‘The Notorious’ in the 10th round in 2017. The event turned out to be an enormous success and generated $500 million. Keeping this business in mind, Mayweather announced earlier this year that he was in talks for a rematch with the Irish.

Now, the SunSports reported a new update that claims the addition of another clause which would see ‘The Pretty Boy’ stepping inside the Octagon for the first time in his career. According to this report, the fights will take place in Abu Dhabi and Saudi Arabia in the year 2023.

Confirmation is yet to be made, as both teams are still in talks.
