Dana White urging McGregor to focus on UFC than cross sporting again

Dana White is not a fan of Conor McGregor jumping back to boxing once again. White, the President of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), said, he would rather see a rematch of McGregor versus Khabib Nurmagomedov than the rumoured McGregor-Manny Pacquiao boxing match.
McGregor debuted in boxing back in 2017 in a mega-money fight against genius businessman Floyd Mayweather Jr. Although the UFC superstar was knocked out, he made tons of money in the fight. Better than what he was getting in the UFC.
Noting what happened, this is also what most people are thinking for the McGregor-Pacquiao fight, who late in December 2020 said that they will surely fight each other this year, a money fight with more just more action because it is Pacquiao who will compete.
However, White was urging the Irish fighter to focus all his energy first in the UFC.
\”I would love to see him focus on what he could do in the UFC. Whether it is taking another shot at the title against Khabib or fight for the title against somebody else if Khabib retires and then defend that title,” White said.
It can also, be remembered that White is not a fan of boxing as he always takes shots at Top Rank\’s Bob Arum and how the boxing is getting low interactions nowadays.
\”A boxing match with any of these guys, that sort of stuff is always going to be there. You are the absolute best in the world right now at MMA.”
\”The timing is right now. [You are] not getting any younger. I would love to see him go for it here [in UFC] in the next year.”

He is averaging 15.1 points in 2022-2023 and 17.0 points in 2023-2024.

He will wear number 21 but as of this writing it’s uncertain when he will show off with Stephen Curry and other Warriors superstars. But Post is officially a Warriors.

Crawford to retire soon – Eddie Hearns

PONCIANO

Canelo Alvarez ex-promoter Eddie Hearns predicts that Terrence Crawford will retire after his victory vs Israil Madrimov last August 3, 2024 in Los Angeles.

Crawford is now the 4-division champ after winning by unanimous decision.

However, Hearns said that three fighters are a must fight against Crawford before hanging his gloves – Vergil Ortiz, Jaron Ennis, and Canelo.

“I don’t think Crawford wants a Boots fight. I don’t think Crawford will fight again unless he fights Canelo Alvarez because he’s got money, he’s getting on [in age],” Hearns revealed.

He added that Crawford ducks Ortiz. He also mocked him for getting lucky with the scoring for his fight against Madrimov.

Hearns underscored that 36 year old Crawford is craving for mega-money, mega-fights, and real legacy fights that is why he does not like to fight the undefeated Ennis. He furthered that 27 year old Ennis is like the young Crawford version that is why he is skipping him.

Meanwhile, Crawford still hates Ennis because he is overrated.
