CONOR McGREGOR bumped into Floyd Mayweather’s dad and revealed he would “love to do work” with the boxing coach.
McGregor famously lost to Mayweather Jr in their lucrative 2017 boxing match, which ended in round ten.
And the Irishman had some memorable run-ins with Mayweather Sr leading up to the pay-per-view blockbuster.
But it seems all is forgiven as the pair met up again in Las Vegas on the night Gervonta Davis knocked out Ryan Garcia.
McGregor appeared to praise Mayweather’s padwork and professed that he would like to train with the former professional boxer.
He said: “I’d love to do work with you. Would love to do work with you some day.”

Mayweather in 2018 offered to bring McGregor into his Las Vegas boxing club for training.
But McGregor responded: “F*** the Mayweathers, except Senior and Roger. There is no peace here kid. Step up or step down.”
Mayweather, 46, officially retired after beating McGregor, 34, but has continued to box in exhibition bouts.
And he last year opened the door to rematching the UFC icon, in either an exhibition or professional bout.

McGregor has also expressed his interest in a rematch having claimed Mayweather failed to follow up on a promise to fight him in MMA.
He said on Fox News: “That was the original, it was a verbal agreement, I box him, he fights me. But he didn’t honour it.
“He didn’t honoured it yet you know, who knows? I would go against him in another boxing bout. I’d like another crack at it.”
Mayweater’s last exhibition was over eight rounds against reality TV star-turned boxer Aaron Chalmers at London’s O2 Arena.
And he later announced he would box five more times in five different locations, including America, Asia and Europe.
McGregor meanwhile is set to face Michael Chandler in his UFC return – his first fight since breaking his leg against Dustin Poirier in 2021.
