American boxer Floyd Mayweather spoke about the fee he wants to get for a possible fight with a Russian - Habib Nurmagomedov.
According to the unbeatable Mayweather for the fight with the UFC lightweight champion, he is eager to get from 110 to 200 million dollars.
"I am Floyd Mayweather, of course I am the main side of this fight. Habib called me, he should go to my world, to the world of boxing. I do not know another boxer who could be compared with achievements with me.
If I fight with Habib, then of course for a nine digit fee. And the amount will be much more than for the fight with McGregor. Probably a hundred million dollars more. I think the amount of my fee should be somewhere in the region of 110-200 million, "BoxingScene quotes Mayweather as saying.
Note that both athletes have already agreed to hold this megafight.
Recall that in his entire professional career Mayweather spent 50 fights in which he did not suffer a single defeat. As for Nurmagomedov, he spent 27 fights in the UFC, they all ended in victories.
Interestingly, Floyd and Habib held their last meetings against Conor McGregor.. Both beat the star Irish. Mayweather defeated Macgregor by the rules of boxing, and Nurmagomedov by the rules of MMA.
