Dana White Still In Talks with Floyd Mayweather, Fight ‘Very Possible’

Dana white says he always talks with Floyd Mayweather about working together on another combat sports event TMZ Sports, “We are interested on both sides.”

Of course, Floyd made a handshake deal with Dana in 2019 to set up a fight involving the UFC.

But all of Floyd’s fight plans came to a screeching halt in 2020 following a series of personal tragedies and the COVID-19 pandemic.

We are told that Floyd remained in shock after his ex, Josie harris, and his uncle, Roger mayweather, died within a week … and fighting was the last thing on his mind.

Now, however, Dana says he’s speaking with Floyd … and a possible collaboration is far from dead.

“Floyd and I always have a dialogue and back and forth. We’re still interested on both sides.”

White added that an event is always “very possible”.

So who is the opponent? A boxing rematch with Conor McGregor perhaps?

“No no no. I know he would face Conor McGregor but I don’t know if you’ve heard of it but Conor McGregor has retired,” White said.

Mcgregor announced his retirement of MMA in June, claiming he had lost his passion for the sport – but no one really believes him … except maybe Dana ?!

“When I’m doing things right now and running a business, I don’t even think of Conor. Conor is retired. Right now Conor is retired until Conor tells me otherwise, I’m not trying to make it fight for Conor. “

When asked about Conor’s true career plans, White explained it this way …

“He’s retired right now. He’s not fighting. So by my contract with the fighters, I owe them three fights a year. If I don’t deliver three fights a year, I have to pay them their money. Conor McGregor is retired. “
