Conor McGregor Calls for Mayweather MMA Rematch at UFC White House Event

Neither Mayweather nor the UFC has signaled interest, leaving Chandler as McGregor’s most likely opponent.

Overview

  • McGregor resurfaced footage from the 2017 tour and invited Floyd Mayweather to a “promised MMA bout” on the White House South Lawn in June 2026.
  • He added “Just kidding Mike!” toward Michael Chandler and boasted “Floyd MMA? EASY. 10 seconds,” later floating BKFC rules in a comment.
  • Mayweather has offered no public response, and UFC officials have not indicated that a crossover MMA matchup is under consideration.
  • Coverage still points to a McGregor return versus Chandler on the White House card after his 2021 leg break and the canceled UFC 303 bout in 2024.
  • Their 2017 boxing clash ended in a 10th‑round TKO for Mayweather, who now focuses on exhibitions, including a reported plan to face Mike Tyson, highlighting the regulatory and practical hurdles for an MMA meeting.
