O'Brien noted that as part of his deal, he will fight in the UFC and face Conor McGregor, Ronda Rousey and fellow UFC investor Sharapova before having his memorial service the following day.

- Speaking of McGregor, TMZ Sports caught up with Floyd Mayweather Jr. and asked him if a potential fight with McGregor was still possible.

"I think that the fight is very difficult to make. I tried to make the fight before, it didn't happen, but you live and you learn," Mayweather said.

Mayweather was also asked if McGregor had picked up anything from him.

"If he did steal my blueprint then, I think it's a good thing," Mayweather admitted. "I think he's a hell of a fighter, he can fight. He can box real good. As far as stand up, he's very good at standing up fighting. Everyone is asking me, 'are we going to fight?' I just don't know."

- As for McGregor, he told TMZ Sports that he's ready for a fight with Mayweather, as seen above.
