Pound for Pound star Terence Crawford has stunned the boxing world by declaring his interest in crossing over to MMA opposite Conor McGregor.
McGregor is back in business after a 40-second victory over âCowboyâ Donald Cerrone and the Irishman is now back in demand with fighters from across the MMA and boxing world displaying their interest.
Nemesis Floyd Mayweather uploaded a poster of the pair colliding in a rematch in 2020. In addition, Manny Pacquiao has also been linked.
The latest to call McGregor out is WBO welterweight world champion, Crawford.
âBudâ has also declared his hopes of securing a lucrative showdown with Mayweather himself. Although that looks unlikely due to being represented by Top Rankâs Bob Arum so a showdown with the âNotoriousâ could be more realistic.
Teasing fans, Crawford hinted it may not be in a boxing ring.
