Conor McGregor believes he’s “owed commission” from Manny Pacquiao’s defeat to Yordenis Ugas over the weekend.
Over the course of the last few years we’ve all heard rumblings about the prospect of McGregor returning to the squared circle to take on Manny Pacquiao in a boxing match. “The Notorious” has only ever previously had one professional bout in the sport against Floyd Mayweather but with both McGregor and “Pac-Man” previously being part of the Paradigm Sports Management family, it was considered to be a viable idea.

Alas, Pacquiao’s relationship with Paradigm turned sour earlier this year in the midst of his proposed fight with Errol Spence, leaving the potential fight against McGregor in tatters.
Manny’s showdown with Spence then fell through which opened the door for Yordenis Ugas to step up and take on the Filipino this past Saturday night in front of a capacity crowd in Las Vegas. Unfortunately for the veteran, Ugas put together the perfect game plan en-route to a decision victory – with the aforementioned McGregor being one of the first to comment on what happened on social media.
I’m owed commission off that manny fight and I want it.

“I’m owed commission off that manny fight and I want it.”
Even at the age of 42 we’re pretty confident in saying Manny Pacquiao would be able to have his way with Conor McGregor if the two ever did decide to settle the score.
Alas, that seems fairly unlikely with McGregor currently recovering from a leg break with his plan of action being to exact revenge on Dustin Poirier if and when he returns.
