Per Jim White of talkSPORT, the rumored fight could garner a humongous sum of money for all parties involved—which in turn makes the fight even more appealing, not only for McGregor but also for ‘Money’ Mayweather—
"My soundings are that there are a lot of talks going on in the background, there are a lot of talks around people with Mayweather…There are a lot of talks about him potentially having an MMA fight with McGregor.”
"McGregor had no chance in a boxing match with Mayweather, (and) people will tune in to see Mayweather get stopped by Conor McGregor and it won't affect his boxing record. I think it's going to happen and I think it will be a three, four, five hundred million dollar fight again."
