Conor McGregor’s exclusive endorsement deal for an apparel collection with Reebok has ended just before his big fight with Floyd Mayweather on August 26. Reebok is said to be in negotiations to re-up the deal, but discussions are underway with other brands as well.
McGregor’s manager Audie Attar of Paradigm Sports Management told MMAFighting that they purposefully let his previous apparel deal expire in anticipation of this showdown with Mayweather.
“He’s currently a free agent with regard to athletic apparel,” Attar said. “We’re still in discussions with Reebok and other brands.”
In 2015, UFC signed a six-year, $70 million deal that would allow Reebok to be the exclusive outfitter of the UFC. Under the deal, all UFC fighters will wear Reebok uniforms and training apparel in the Octagon and during fight week. However, the deal reportedly does not extend to boxing.
