It looks like Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor are indeed talking behind the scenes to make the rematch into a reality because it was already reported that the two is nearing to close the deal and it says that the fight will be contested at 155 pounds, currently, the two are just finishing some details including the terms.
If that will happen, their rematch will likely happen somewhere in the 1st quarter of 2023 because Floyd Mayweather have 1 more exhibition fight this year versus Deji (another YouTube star) at the Coca-Cola Arena, Dubai.
We could say that this is a two rematch because they are planning two fights across two sports.

Of course, Floyd Mayweather will always win because even professional boxers didn't have that chance to defeat him, what more for this YouTuber superstars like Deji. Mayweather is just taking advantage of their fan bases to hype and market the fight. But McGregor is another story, Floyd's chance gradually decreases if it's against him, I'm not sure if this will materialize as he already said that he's not interested to fight real players.
As time goes, the physical condition of Mayweather is no longer on its same level. If McGregor land a solid punch on him, he might
endanger his life, though the chance of winning is still high for Mayweather.
But we never know when an accident will take place, and basing on that last statement where he doesn't want to fight a real fighter
it's more on the security side.
Just play for the money and take advantage of the fan base youtubers. It's still money that he can collect, so why not, right?
