In the age of superfights and crossover appeal, we’ve seen a rise in fighters clamoring for fights that will net them bigger paydays via pay-per-view revenue.
With this in mind, the usual modus operandi is for people to call out the biggest attraction they can in hopes of getting that coveted major purse. Since the biggest consistent draw we’ve seen in MMA over the past year has been lightweight champion Conor McGregor, fighters from multiple divisions have been calling him out in and out of the UFC. That said, the real PPV bonanza that’s been teased for some time is a bout between McGregor and boxing king Floyd Mayweather. Despite the logistical hurdles that would prevent that fight from taking place, there’s been no lack of speculation or interest in seeing that fight play out.
Yet while McGregor and Mayweather continue to trade compliments and barbs for a fight that may never materialize, another boxer has taken note of the earning potential that a crossover fight could have: none other than Nicaraguan former boxing champion Ricardo Mayorga.
Mayorga initially took to Twitter to call out the UFC champion in an odd manner last year after his loss to Nate Diaz, but has really been beating the drum recently.
