Floyd Mayweather to earn £54MILLION more than Conor McGregor for their Las Vegas super-fight
FLOYD MAYWEATHER is set to earn £54MILLION more than Conor McGregor for their Las Vegas super-fight.
The US boxer will rake in £77m for their clash in the US, while the Irish UFC star will pocket just £23m for the massive showdown on Saturday night.
The pair go head-to-head at the T-Mobile Arena in the eagerly-anticipated clash - with Mayweather set to pocket more than THREE times as much.
However, both "Money" and McGregor are set to take home much more than that for the fight, thanks to publicity events and sponsorship.
Mayweather reckons he will walk away with £232m, while McGregor will stroll off with a cool £77m all-in-all.
To date, the Irish MMA star's biggest purse has been £2m for his clash with Nate Diaz at UFC 202 in August 2016... also at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
He is set to shatter that income for his cross-sport showdown with Mayweather on Saturday night.
Ahead of the clash, McGregor came in three pounds heavier than Floyd at the weigh-in, before declaring he wants to "go to war" with the American.
