An illustrious rematch between Conor McGregor and Floyd Mayweather is edging closer, according to reports.
McGregor and Mayweather shared the ring in an illustrious boxing clash back in 2017 which became the second highest-selling combat sports pay-per-view of all time. McGregor ultimately came up short and returned to the UFC but has always remained open to a boxing return.
Reports indicated previously that the pair were holding talks over a potential sequel, with McGregor appearing to hint at a second fight on social media by posting: "I accept." UFC president Dana White initially poured cold water on the talks, claiming that he is not interested in letting the UFC star return to face Mayweather again.
