5 Talking points from the Mayweather vs McGregor boxing match

Floyd Mayweather Jr. v Conor McGregor
Floyd Mayweather Jr. v Conor McGregor lived up to the hype

There was no loser

Floyd Mayweather Jr. v Conor McGregor
All things considered, they are both winners

As Floyd surmised in one of the numerous media scrums that he obliged the journalists with after the fight, 'in a billion dollar fight, nobody loses'.

And while Floyd did beat out Conor McGregor's challenge convincingly, in the end, both men will retire to their dens a good 9 figure sum richer.

After the Pacquiao fight, Conor McGregor was the only potential opponent for Floyd who could generate similar numbers in a super fight.

Conversely, fighting Floyd Mayweather was hands down Conor McGregor's biggest payday.

Reportedly, McGregor and the UFC combined will clear the $180 Million mark while Floyd will clear the $300 million mark.

That's almost $500 Million for little under 30 minutes of work. As the Kliq would say, too sweet!
