CONOR McGREGOR revealed the key area he would change in a second fight with Floyd Mayweather – and has been mulling over a rematch.
The Irishman was beaten in ten rounds by Mayweather in what was his professional boxing debut in 2017.
But McGregor has talked up a sequel ever since and vowed to “get the job finished” if he had another opportunity.
Asked about his comments, McGregor told Inside Fighting: “I’ve been thinking about it a long time.
“I’ve had a long time to think about it and analyse it, happy with how it went the last time.
“I’d for sure look to (KO Mayweather). I’d like to go back in with my old boxing coaches who I reunited with post-fight. I feel my style has developed.”

McGregor, 34, was cornered by his MMA coaches Owen Roddy and John Kavanagh for his defeat to Mayweather.
But in the years following, he returned to his old amateur boxing coach Phil Sutcliffe, the 1980 and 1984 Irish Olympian.
Sutcliffe has corned McGregor alongside Roddy and Kavanagh in the cage as well as training the UFC legend in his Crumlin Boxing Club.
Mayweather, 46, officially retired following the stoppage win but has continued to box in exhibitions since.

Last year, Mayweather opened the door to a rematch with McGregor, in a professional or exhibition bout.
And The Notorious added fuel to the fire by reposting a clip of the ninth round during the Las Vegas fight.
He posted: “If you don’t think there is some real nice adjustments that can be made and implemented in a second fight, to get the job finished, you’re silly.”
