There are reportedly plans in place for a Conor McGregor and Floyd Mayweather rematch.
According to Omar Al Raisi, editor in chief of The Sports Journal, Dubai's largest sporting news outlet, who referenced sources, the fight will take place in the Octagon with modified rules.
"Floyd Mayweather will fight Conor McGregor in the octagon. With 4 ounce gloves, no shoes, 5-five minute rounds in 155 division," Al Raisi tweeted Sunday, April 8. "No kicks, no take downs, no elbows, no knees. Certain things will be allowed like the clinch. With 4 ounce gloves, no shoes, 5-five minute rounds in 155 division. Co-promoted by Mayweather Promotions, UFC and McGregor Entertainment."
Forbes reports that it's possible the UFC was going to announce the bout last week, but McGregor throwing a dolly through a bus window at the UFC 223 media day on Thursday spoiled those plans.
