That didn’t take long: Floyd Mayweather didn’t exactly give an outright “No deal” to UFC President Dana White’s $25 million offer to box Conor McGregor. But it’s safe to assume the boxing legend is pretty far from signing on the dotted line for that number.

TMZ today asked Mayweather if he had a response to White’s offer, which also came today on “The Herd” with Colin Cowherd on FS1. Mayweather called the UFC boss a “comedian,” then invited TMZ to take a look at the watch he just bought – a Hublot Laferrari that can hit the $350,000 range.

When TMZ tried to get an answer from Mayweather a second time, he asked the site again to check out his watch, then had his driver pull away.

 

Earlier today, White said Mayweather’s recent offer to have McGregor, the UFC’s lightweight champion, get $15 million to Mayweather’s $100 million for a boxing match was off base. Instead, he offered Mayweather $25 million for each fighter, plus a discussion about a portion of the pay-per-view buys.

The fantasy crossover matchup had been considered just that – fantasy – until White today came out with his offer. At a pre-fight media scrum for UFC 207 in December, White said Mayweather and McGregor essentially each were keeping the discussion alive to promote themselves. White typically has indicated the fight never would happen, particularly because McGregor is under contract with the UFC.

Mayweather recently retired from boxing undefeated at 49-0. McGregor in November won the UFC’s lightweight title to become the first to hold two belts simultaneously. Two weeks later, the UFC removed his featherweight title, keeping him in the lightweight division. But with a baby on the way for his girlfriend, he is expected to sit out the better part 2017 – which led the UFC to put an interim lightweight title up for grabs at UFC 209 in March.
