McGregor Calls Out Mayweather for MMA Bout at UFC’s Planned White House Event

Mayweather has not responded, leaving the crossover contingent on regulatory clearance plus a formal bout announcement.

Overview

  • Conor McGregor used a social post to invite Floyd Mayweather to a “promised MMA bout,” tagging UFC and suggesting the White House in June while predicting a 10‑second finish.
  • The UFC has not announced any matchups for the June 14 South Lawn card, and there is no indication from officials that a McGregor–Mayweather MMA fight is in the works.
  • McGregor nodded to Michael Chandler with “Just kidding Mike!” and suggested he could fight both, as Chandler remains widely linked to McGregor’s return after their canceled UFC 303 bout in 2024.
  • Reporters note that an MMA meeting with Mayweather would require significant regulatory, training and contractual steps, making the matchup unlikely without extensive approvals.
  • McGregor is expected to be eligible to compete from March 20 following an anti‑doping suspension, positioning him for a possible return if the White House card plans advance.
