McGregor says 'talks are intensifying' to fight Manny Pacquiao

Conor McGregor insists he will win a boxing world title and believes a fight against Manny Pacquiao will happen this year.

The UFC superstar returns to mixed martial arts action next weekend in a rematch with Dustin Poirier, who he knocked out in a breakthrough performance in 2014.

McGregor lost his boxing debut against Floyd Mayweather three years later but expects to return to the ring later in 2021.

Boxing legend Pacquiao currently holds the WBA welterweight championship - now aged 42, he has held a world title in each of the past four decades.

Pacquiao lost the richest fight of all time against Mayweather six years ago.
