Conor McGregor is currently the top dog of UFC, and it's partly to do with his ability to engage viewers with his braggadocios attitude and his ability to back it up in the octagon. That has drawn the attention of the still undefeated boxing champion Floyd Mayweather, and both have gone back and forth a bit in the media over a proposed match.

UFC president Dana White recently appeared on The Herd, where in a surprise to no one the topic happened to come up (via Wrestling Inc). White decided to put an actual offer on the table, being that he is the president of the company and all. "I'll tell you what, Floyd," White said. "Here's a real offer, and I'm the guy that can actually make the offer, and I'm actually making a real offer. We'll pay you $25 million, we'll pay Conor $25 million, and then we'll talk about pay-per-view at a certain number. There's a real offer."

He also responded to Floyd's previous comments about wanting $100 million since his camp is the "A" side. White didn't take too kindly to that. "To think that you're the 'A' side? How are you the 'A' side? The last major fight you were in, you left such a bad taste in everybody's mouth nobody wants to see you again. His last fight did 350,000 pay-per-view buys. Conor's last (two) did 1.3 and 1.5 million buys, so I don't understand how you think you're the 'A' side. There's a reason you want this Conor fight so bad, because you know that's your money fight. If they're going to box, Floyd looks at this thing like an easy match for him. For Conor, (this) is his money fight."

At one point all of this seemed like harmless bluster, but things are heading in a very real direction apparently. Who knows, maybe fans will get to see this match after all.
