    Now Golovkin v Canelo is a fight I'm more than happy to pay to watch. It'll be epic I reckon.

    Wonder what the purse per fighter is for that one?

    What do you mean 'if he wins a title'?
    He already held one and just won another two against Klitschko
    So if his next fight was Fury as you assume...then that would be his first defence of the last two that he won!

    To be fair in an MMA fight Mayweather would have no chance just as McGregor has no chance in a boxing ring

    I didn't think Klitschko held any titles. Didn't he lose them all when Fury unified it? Was he just handed them back when he wouldn't defend it?

    You can tell I'm really not interested.

    No
    They were vacant (from Fury being stripped of them I think )

    What? McGregor would actually kill Mayweather in a street fight.

    very true
    but thankfully fighting should be kept to the professional rings

    These McGregor / Mayweather press conferences are a ****ing embarrassment.

    Shared a private jet to London for tonight's. Hope it does a Glen Miller on the way back.

    <laugh> Reminds me of my dad, a big Glenn Miller fan, telling me when he was in the navy in the war they were reading the news out over the tannoy and it was announced a well known entertainer was missing. A stoker immediately piped up with "Let's hope it is that bastard Trinder".

    It's bonkers when you think how much money they'll make.

    At least we know WWE is scripted.

    They've changed their story from earlier

    Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor share private jet for ... - Mirror

    www.mirror.co.uk › Sport › Boxing › Floyd Mayweather vs Conor McGregor
    8 hours ago - Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor arrived in London on the SAME ... The privatejet arrives in London for the final stop of the world tour (Image: Flynet Pictures) ... Join us for all the latest deals news and rumours throughout the day .... dozens of balloons in honour of the little "superhero in the sky".


    15:34
    After landing in the same private jet as his fierce rival, Floyd Mayweather has lobbed up at his London hotel to relax ahead of tonight’s event.

    No sign of McGregor though.

    Maybe they're trying to make it appear slightly interesting

    Yes, they have changed it. Though the article I linked to admits it was misreported earlier. I'll bet someome originally heard they had been on same jet and thought that would sound like the conference was a staged event and printed it without checking first.

    How much are people paying to go to these 'press conferences' (they're not really press conferences)?

    They're calling them press conferences, but obviously it's just a promotional tour, the tickets were free.
