Ryan Garcia and Gervonta Davis are scheduled to collide in a huge boxing event at T-Mobile Arena this Saturday.

Ahead of the bout the pair recently agreed on Instagram to put their entire fight purse on the line, as they betted on the outcome of their fight.

One who claimed the bet is nothing but bullshit is UFC superstar Conor McGregor, who slammed the two boxers bet.

”Has any competing fighters bet their purse against each other and then followed thru?” McGregor tweeted. ”We should stop doing this. Fighting is tough. It can go anyway. Luck plays a hell of a part. Don’t be saying you are betting your fight purse against each other. Because it never happens. And it’s stupid. Train hard. Fight hard. Earn your dough. And then enjoy it. God bless,” McGregor wrote in a tweet.

Conor McGregor keeps his money

In a reply on Twitter, the Irishman claimed it’s impossible for him to bet his purse, since he’s making so much more money than the rest of the UFC roster.

”I make substantially more than everyone on the roster combined so it’s not feasible. I could bet a portion however. But it’s ridiculous, and no. This game, and the longer you are in it, gets tougher and tougher. I’m keeping my hard earned money for my loved ones,” McGregor tweeted.

Conor McGregor plans to make his UFC comeback later this year as he will take on top ranked lightweight Michael Chandler.
