It appears that a boxing match between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Conor McGregor could actually happen.

Last week there was a report published The Sun that said a fight between the two was imminent. It was generally dismissed as a rumor by most, but Floyd has confirmed the bout is a possibility.

"It's possible...it was a name that was shot at me," Floyd told Fighhype following the Amir Khan/ Canelo Alvarez fight in Vegas Saturday, May 7. "The rumors that y'all been hearing is the rumors that I started. It may not be a rumor. Keep y'all fingers crossed. It may be a boxer versus an MMA fighter."

Floyd added that it would take at least $100 million to get him to come out of retirement. A win would up his record to 50-0, breaking the record he shares with Rocky Marciano for the most victories without a loss.

On Sunday morning, May 8, McGregor shared what could be a poster for the match on his Twitter page.

Conor is under contract with the UFC. He can't fight outside of the organization without their blessing.

UFC President Dana White dismissed the Sun report as being "completely fiction, this is like bottom-feeder ... stuff."

"We're his promoter. We'd have to make the fight," White told the Los Angeles Times on Friday.

At the end of the day this will come down to how much money could be generated. The UFC could possibly work out a deal with Mayweather Promotions that would allow the bout to take place.

Mystic Mac is 19-3 as a professional mixed martial artist. The 27-year old reportedly has a boxing background dating back to when he was 12 and incorporates it into his mma training.
