Floyd Mayweather-Conor McGregor Fight Financial Details Will Not Be Disclosed

Details regarding the purse split for the August 26 fight between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Conor McGregor will not be made public anytime soon.

According to MMA Fighting's Ariel Helwani, Mayweather Promotions' Leonard Ellerbe told reporters Wednesday financial parameters of the fight will be kept under wraps, in accordance with a confidentiality agreement that was signed by both parties.

"Everyone is happy," Ellerbe added, per Yahoo Sports' Kevin Iole.

Before the boxing match was officially set Wednesday for T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, UFC President Dana White tossed around several numbers publicly regarding payouts and the purse split.

During an April appearance on The Herd with Colin Cowherd (h/t MMA Fighting's Shaun Al-Shatti), White estimated McGregor could make $75 million and Mayweather could earn a little more than $100 million "if the fight sells as well as I think it can."

A month later, White suggested a 50-50 purse split would be "pretty fair."

"I think this thing does, conservatively, between 2-1/2 and 4 million buys," White said in May, per MMA Fighting's Marc Raimondi. "Other people think more. ... And this thing will kill it, globally. Conor McGregor and the UFC are huge in Brazil, huge in Australia, massive in the UK and other parts of Europe."

On Wednesday, White said a pay-per-view price has yet to be hammered out. However, Helwani noted White's answer lent credence to the belief that the final figure will be closer to the $100 fans had to pay for Mayweather's fight against Manny Pacquiao.

According to ESPN.com's Darren Rovell and Dan Rafael, the Mayweather-Pacquiao fight—which featured a 60-40 purse split in favor of Money—was the most lucrative fight in history. All told, the clash generated nearly $600 million in revenue.
