Trash talk proves taxing for Floyd

-

UFC star Conor McGregor played to a partisan Toronto audience and made fun of boxer Floyd Mayweather’s tax problems on the second stop of their four-city promotiona­l tour.

They are scheduled to meet in a boxing match Aug 26 in Las Vegas.

McGregor, one of the biggest stars in mixed martial arts, was clearly the fan favorite on Wednesday, with the crowd chanting “Pay your taxes! Pay your taxes!” at Mayweather. The IRS still has Mayweather on the hook for $7.2 million in taxes from 2010, according to records.
