CONOR McGREGOR said Floyd Mayweather’s exhibition with Logan Paul ‘didn’t feel right’ and ‘wasn’t a good look for him’.
Mayweather officially retired after beating McGregor in a lucrative 2017 fight which grossed close to £600MILLION.
He has returned twice since then – both in exhibition bouts – the first with featherweight kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa in Japan.
But more recently he gave away TWO STONE against YouTuber Paul, 26, which went the full eight round distance.
McGregor blasted Mayweather for the bizarre fight, which ended without a winner as there was no knockout, and opened the door to a rematch.
He told ESPN’s Stephen A Smith: “I have no problem with Floyd, it wasn’t a good look for him to face against that man (Logan Paul) in his last one.
“It didn’t feel right, even he didn’t feel right, you could see it in him. We can go again if he wants.
“I feel that’s going to happen at some stage down the line.”
McGregor, 32, made his pro boxing debut against Mayweather, 44, but is yet to return to the ring.
He was then in talks with Manny Pacquiao, 42, before making his UFC comeback in January in a rematch against Dustin Poirier, 32, who he beat in 2014.

But after Poirier knocked the Irishman out, his return to the boxing ring was shelved.
McGregor admitted to putting too much emphasis on boxing before the defeat, as he faces Poirier in a trilogy decider on Saturday.
Ahead of the UFC 264 headliner, he has vowed to focus solely on MMA, but did not rule out another venture into the ring.
McGregor said: “For sure I’ll box again.
“Like I’m back on the sites, the boxing is not even on the radar at the minute. But I will do, of course.”
