A source told the Daily Star: “Conor is on the edge of signing.
“There is no direct combat involved so it doesn’t breach his UFC contract and he should be fine to take part.”

Superstars was a popular show on the BBC in the 1970s and had athletes from different sports competing against one another in a series of different tests.
According to the newspaper, McGregor and Mayweather will take on two Japanese kickboxers on the show.
And one of those kickboxers is Tenshin Nasukawa, who fought against Mayweather in an exhibition match last year in Japan.
It’s exhibition fights like this that prevent the real fights from happening.
Who needs fight for money when you can fake fight for money. . .
