The Notorious, 28, and the undefeated 40-year-old boxer have engaged in a public war of words since agreeing to the big-money bout weeks ago.

The record-breaking deal was held up by a third-party issue, believed to be the UFC to which McGregor is signed.

But after boss Dana White got behind the crossover bout, the two parties have thrashed out details for the money-spinning event.

An announcement would also mean any issues with the Nevada Athletic Commission had been resolved.

A source revealed: “Both sides have agreed a fee, date and venue. It’s all ready to be announced early next week.”

After initially describing it as “the stupidest move he has ever made”, White conceded there was too much money at stake for it not to happen.

He said: “I think it’s going to be a tough deal, because obviously (there are) a lot of egos involved in this deal and a lot of people, so that always makes it tougher.

“On the flip side, there’s so much money involved I just don’t see how it doesn’t happen.

“Conor McGregor is huge. He’s 28 years old. He’s in the prime of his career. Floyd is 40.

“Floyd has always had a problem with southpaws. Conor is a southpaw and Conor hits hard.”
