“Man, I don’t fight in California. What did he get a license in California for,” stated promoter Floyd Mayweather when asked if he had heard that UFC star Conor McGregor obtained a boxing license in the state of California. Mayweather, who is currently in attendance at the World Boxing Council’s 54th annual convention in Hollywood, Florida, shared his thoughts on McGregor’s latest move during a recent conversation with FightHype.com.
“I’ma tell you like this, he’s blowing smoke up everybody’s ass. He don’t really want to fight because I went to his boss,” Mayweather commented. “He don’t really want to fight. He’s just doing that to keep his name alive, you know what I’m saying, to stay relevant. He don’t really want to fight. He’s doing that building his followers, but he’s smart.”
