His contract extends to boxing?


Probably. I bet there's verbiage in the standard UFC contract that bars competing in other combat sports.

but with the amount of money the fight would bring in maybe the UFC would be interested as long as they got their share of the take. If Mayweathers ego is big enough to fight McGregor under MMA rules it would be the biggest PPV event ever. I don't see how else they could do the fight. No way McGregor would agree to a boxing match with Mayweather, plus that wouldn't be the big draw that a MMA type fight would generate.

Maybe they could go with MMA rules but with no submissions allowed. No chokeouts or arm bars and that sort of thing. But still allow takedowns and ground and pounds.
