McGregor says that at 27 years old, he will be beating the numbers set by Mayweather when he was 40.
Conor McGregor did a 10.1 million gate at the MGM Grand Garden Arena for his title fight against Jose Aldo, beating the venue's old record, which he also set with UFC 189.
Following his big win, the Irishman spoke like a co-promoter of the show, and basically conducted his own press conference. This is also where he boldly stated that he is looking to eventually break Floyd Mayweather's numbers, who has been setting records in boxing for years.
