Conor McGregor accuses Floyd Mayweather of breaking rematch agreement after boxing fight

Conor McGregor has claimed Floyd Mayweather broke a verbal agreement for the pair to have a rematch in the cage.

McGregor fought in arguably the most high-profile outing of his career when he made the switch to the boxing ring and lost to legend Mayweather in 2017. It was a huge event around the world and sold the second highest number of pay-per-views in combat sports history, which naturally led to talks of a rematch.

More recently speculation was fuelled that the pair were in talks to stage a rematch in the boxing ring, but after Mayweather confirmed negotiations it appears they have now died down. Despite no new agreement being reached, McGregor has suggested he is still open to doing battle with the retired star again before the end of his career.
