Jeff Horn wants to fight Conor McGregor in Australia

By Daily Sports on October 21, 2017

Horn won his title off Manny Pacquiao back in July of 2017 via controversial decision on his home turf of Australia. Now his manager Dean Lonergan wants to see ifnager Dean Lonergan wants to see if he can draw the Irish UFC champ down under.

"We've talked about how Conor McGregor would be a great fight for Jeff Horn. We all know that. He's a promotional genius and he looks like a good, fun guy. Wouldn't that be a cool thing to do?"

"These [critics] are the same people that said we couldn't get Manny Pacquiao here. It turns into one of the great days of Australian sport. If we can get Pacquiao v Horn, why can't we get Conor McGregor?

We'd give him a chance at the WBO welterweight title. And, to be honest, I think we can make the money stack up. I've got a rough idea of what he got."

"Obviously he's not going to get Floyd Mayweather money, but I tell you what, there wouldn't be too many fights, if any, other than Mayweather that would offer the same money I think we can put up down here."
