If Conor McGregor wants Pacquiao ... Manny's promoter says it's as good as done!!!

Here's the deal ... Conor raised the idea of fighting PacMan during his Pay-Per-View Q&A session over the weekend while being pressed on the possibility of fighting Floyd Mayweather.

"Maybe f*ck Floyd," McGregor said ... "Maybe f*ck the A-side. Maybe I’ll just fight Pacquiao instead. Why not do that? Why not fight Manny and f*ck Floyd?”
