Mayweather recently spoke to TMZ to express his displeasure for being compared to McGregor, to which the Irishman responded by saying, ‘say it to my face’. Now UFC President Dana White has chimed in, to back up his two weight world champion, trashing Mayweather for his style of fighting that ‘puts people to sleep’.

Here’s what White had to say about Money Mayweather (Courtesy of MMA Mania):

McGregor is coming off of a spectacular second round knockout win over Eddie Alvarez, in the main event of UFC 205 live from Madison Square Garden. Now with McGregor’s name continuing to get bigger and bigger as each day passes, the comparisons to Mayweather continue to grow, fueling the speculation of a possible boxing match between the two stars.

Both McGregor and Mayweather have expressed interest in a boxing bout between the two, but no deal has been able to come forth to satisfy both parties. If a boxing match does go down between the two money hungry combat sports stars, it will surely become the biggest fight in combat sports history.
