Mayweather coy on McGregor bout

-

Floyd Mayweather was tight-lipped on Thursday over the prospect of a fight with mixed martial arts champion Conor McGregor after the promoter said the Irishman had signed to face the boxing great.

Mayweather is currently in London with protege Gervonta Davis, who makes the first defense of his IBF world super-featherwei­ght title against Liam Walsh in the English capital on Saturday.

Asked about the longtalked-about fight with McGregor, Mayweather said: “This is Liam Walsh and Gervonta Davis’ press conference. Let’s focus on these two competitor­s.”
