Reporter: "Is there anyone in the boxing game that you'd like to box?" McGregor: "I'm certainly open, I'm open to what the UFC and what WME-IMG [the promotion's owners] want and if [others] want me to come over to boxing, we can certainly talk. "I'm young. 29 years of age. I don't think the fighting world, or boxing world, has seen a man as confident as this come in. At this age and with this amount of accolades, records and this amount of revenue generated. I'm certainly open to more options. "I have, certainly, many contenders in the mixed martial arts game. I've a trilogy bout with Nate Diaz that is sitting there. "I've options. I'll see what's what. I'm here to fight and I'm certainly fresh to fight. I was not badly damaged there; it was fatigue. So we'll see what offers come on the table."Despite the fact that sparring partner Paulie Malignaggi was gloating online after the fight, and the UFC interim lightweight title bout between Kevin Lee and Tony Ferguson, it was interesting to see that Diaz was the only name mentioned by McGregor. Handy, then, that Diaz was nearby. https://twitter.com/ryanmgreene/status/901686883670822912 Let the negotiations begin.
