Where did you see he was making $100m? Not doubting ya but it was circa $10m on the table at the start, now he rejected that but I’d struggle to believe he got it all the way to $100m? He also has to pay the UFC a wedge
Mayweather doesn’t have the ground game, McGregor will get him in a rear choke hold and that will be that, red rover

No in fairness i think he is pulling this is big time.
That would be fucking hilarious.

McGregor is going to knock him out
Will McGregor wear a leprechaun hat and shiny green suit for the promotional tour?

I’d say that’s what McGregor will make, Mayweather made $220 million apparently from the Pacquiao fight. You’d imagine he will be pulling in something similar here.
$100 million from this one
I doubt this has the same draw as that?
its bigger

According to ESPN…
The Bottom Line
Adding up all the major money categories, Mayweather-McGregor will give the historical super fight, Mayweather-Pacquiao, a run for its money, but it will fall short.
When all is tallied up, from all the categories, Floyd’s fight against Manny will be worth $17.4 million more overall.
Total for Mayweather-Pacquiao: $623.5M.
Projected total for Mayweather-McGregor: $606.1M.
By my calculations, $600m is a lot of money.

They’ll be cashing in big time. Nonsense numbers though. Firstly because nobody ever knows what real PPV numbers are because they are not released, and promoters/fighters/networks lies about what they really were. Secondly because it’s impossible to project what PPV sales will be, especially with online streaming continuing to go from strength to strength.
McGregor has talked the talk, and walked the walk. He’s now put himself in line for one of the biggest ever paydays in Irish sport. The guy is a fucking genius.
And you can believe that.
