With a win for Conor McGregor vs. Dustin Poirier at UFC 257 on Saturday, UFC president Dana White’s dream was a rematch vs. Khabib Nurmagomedov. With a loss to Poirier, and “The Eagle” appearing to be retired, McGregor may instead get a rematch vs. Poirier for the vacant title.
However, there is widespread speculation about what else McGregor may do next. Possible opponents include a rematch with Floyd Mayweather, boxing Manny Pacquiao, and fighting Tony Ferguson, among others. Driving it all is the lure of PPV money.
These are the biggest PPVs of all time:
1. Mayweather vs. Pacquiao (4.6 million)
2. Mayweather vs. McGregor (4.3 million)
