The combat world immediately reacted to the news. However, a May/Mac showdown is not restricted only to fight fans. Showbiz stars also reacted to the rematch rumors – Blac Chyna was one of them.

A model and socialist, Blac Chyna was asked about Conor McGregor hinting at a rematch with Floyd Mayweather.
The former stunt double for Nicki Minaj, (for ‘Monster’ song), said, “I am always down for a rematch.”

‘TBE‘ and ‘The Notorious’ have competed before in 2017. This bout was the second-highest PPV event in combat sports history, just behind Mayweather-Pacquiao’s 2015 bout. In the May/Mac bout, bot fighters made a ton of money. Besides, they both never competed in a professional boxing setting after the mega contest.
Now, five years later, the self-proclaimed ‘Face of the Fight Game’ ignited a fire for a rematch with his sensational post.
Will Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor 2 happen in 2022?
Since the May/Mac bout, Mayweather has competed in a few exhibition boxing contests against young talents like Tenshin Nasukawa & Logan Paul, and a legend, Don Moore. Thus, ‘Money’ is active inside the ring in some capacity.
For McGregor, he fought four times since, but these came inside the Octagon and not a ring. Besides, he lost 3 of those four bouts, all via stoppages. The former UFC dual champion lost to Khabib Nurmagomedov (UFC 229 via R4 submission), Dustin Poirier (UFC 257 via R2 T/KO & UFC 264 via Doctor Stoppage after R1).
