2589316, Dana White makes official offer for Floyd vs Conor fight (video)
Posted by jrocc, Fri Jan-13-17 04:57 PM
so if you haven't kept up with the latest round of foolishness ... Floyd was on First Take on ESPN and says that he'd offer Conor $15M and he'd take $100M for a fight. Floyd says that he's tried to make the fight happen but it hasn't happened. he claims that $15M is generous for Conor because he never made that much before. Dana White was on Colin Cowherd today on FS1 and says that Floyd has never made any offer and hasn't talked to anyone. Also he's wrong about how much Conor has made on fights. Dana says that Floyd's last fight with Manny did around 300,000 buys on PPV while Conor's last couple fights have done 1.3M and 1.5M buys respectively. so Dana's official offer (since he's the actual promoter and Conor works for him) to Floyd is to do $25M each fight and then workout the PPV split after that. he predicts that the fight could possibly generate around 2M buys on PPV. Dana says he'd also stack the card with a bunch of other good fights to make it worth the buy for fans.
