McGregor and Mayweather have gone back and forth on social media since their August boxing match, which “Money” won via 10th round technical knockout. Recently, UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley spoke of training Mayweather for MMA.
“I saw him at the [Michael] Jordan party during [NBA] All-Star weekend, we started chatting about training MMA and we decided hey, let’s connect, let’s hook up in Vegas and do some training and get ready for MMA,” Woodley said.
Mayweather also recently confirmed to TMZ Sports that he plans on applying for an MMA license.
"Everything takes time. Eventually, we're gonna apply for the license, and hopefully we can fight," Mayweather said.
"Even if it takes 6 to 8 months -- whatever it takes. We want to make sure that everything is done correctly.”
