"Definitely" - Floyd Mayweather's friend says Conor McGregor fight will happen if one condition is met
Floyd Mayweather's friend Johnny Dang has weighed in on 'Money' potentially fighting Conor McGregor in a rematch. While rumors of the rematch continue to float, Dang laid down the only condition that seemingly matters.
According to the superstar jeweler, Mayweather will rematch McGregor if the money is right. Dang also claims that the former multi-division boxing world champion is still working out religiously to stay in shape. When asked about the rematch between McGregor and Mayweather, the Vietnamese-American jeweler said:
"What I do understand is, if the money is right he might do it. If I'm allowed to say that. He's up and working out and running at 3-4 am, running on the streets, working out. He working out fun, crazy. He keeps himself so healthy and safe."
When further asked if the rematch would materialize with the right amount of money in play, Dang assured:
"I think definitely."
