Floyd Mayweather's cryptic four-word message as Conor McGregor fight could be on

Floyd Mayweather has told his followers his philosophy is "never stop getting it" as talks reportedly get under way for a Conor McGregor rematch.

The money-minded boxer's words would make sense if he and the Irishman were to put pen to paper on a fight that would earn each fighter millions.

It comes hours after The Notorious posted a picture of both men in their 2017 fight with the caption "I accept".

McGregor was beaten by boxing legend Mayweather in 2017 when the Irishman was stopped in the 10th round of what was his professional boxing debut. Mayweather extended his perfect record to 50-0 before hanging up his gloves.

He has since taken part in three money-spinning exhibition bouts against Japanese kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa, YouTube star Logan Paul and former sparring partner Don Moore. Mayweather is also due to take on MMA fighter Mikuru Asakura in Japan later this year.

But FightHype are reporting that the boxing legend is holding talks with McGregor over a bout which would earn him over $100million. The outlet is known to have a close relationship with the former pound-for-pound star.

Mayweather recently revealed he was open to a second meeting with McGregor, telling Showtime Sports: "Absolutely. He easy. The beef is all these guys look up to me, steal my blueprint and then get to hating on me."

Mayweather's promoter then doubled down on his fighter's claim, adding: "When I say to Conor, if you're listening, you can get that too. Most definitely. That right, this is very personal. After everything, where they left the ring, they hugged, but things are a little different now."
