However, the UFC boss cautioned negotiating with Mayweather's team may not be easy.
"I still need to go negotiate with [Mayweather's team]," he said last week on The Jim Rome Show, according to ESPN.com news services. "There's no guarantee that we're going to come to a deal."
In April, White appeared on The Herd with Colin Cowherd and estimated that McGregor would earn somewhere around $75 million if the fight is agreed upon, while Mayweather would likely make a shade over nine figures to participate in the highly anticipated clash.
