Conor McGregor was ringside yet again for another massive boxing fight in Saudi Arabia.
A stacked “Day of Reckoning” event featuring many of the world’s best heavyweight boxers and many guest celebrities in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Among them were McGregor and soccer megastar Cristiano Ronaldo, who sat next to one another during the main card portion of the event.
An energetic McGregor salivated after Saudi Arabia’s minister of entertainment Turki Alalshikh seemingly asked him about a potential boxing match. McGregor zoned in on Manny Pacquiao. Ronaldo meanwhile remained stone-faced for much of the tangent.
“Tell Manny to grow a set of balls and fight me at a higher weight class,” McGregor said. “Why not? It’s his sport. If he wants me to come down to a smaller weight, I should be able to use more of my weapons. I should be able to kick. I should be able to grapple. Shouldn’t that be fair? … Say it to him. Is he a man or a mouse? Is Manny a man or a mouse?”
For years, McGregor and Pacquiao have expressed interest in a boxing match, though it has yet to materialize. The two combat sports legends were briefly under the same management, Paradigm Sports. Pacquiao’s tenure with the company ended in a lawsuit that ruled in favor of Paradigm – and gave McGregor more material to call for a fight.
“Manny already owes me $8 million via court of law because he signed with my management company and then did not honor his deal,” McGregor said in an interview with iFL TV. “He was brought under the court of law… and he owes me $8 million, yeah? So fight at my weight, and I’ll square that bill away.”
McGregor does not currently have a fight of any sort on the books, at least none one that is publicly known. He’s expected to fight Michael Chandler as his next UFC assignment, though indefinite delays have continually pushed off the bout.
Pacquiao hasn’t competed in professional boxing since August 2021, though he fought twice in exhibition bouts in 2022.

Ive wondered if you can party in SA or if its a total no go. I guess Conor answered that. Also, Manny is forty fucking five. Not one person is asking for this fight
