In case you hadn’t heard, Conor McGregor and Floyd Mayweather are having a little boxing match.
The fight between the UFC lightweight champion and the undefeated boxer is expected to rake in hundreds of millions of dollars, which means the two are doing a huge press tour ahead of the Aug. 26 showdown. And during the Toronto leg of their tour Wednesday, McGregor connected with a rather famous Toronto native.
You know obviously these these two had to link up @Drake & @TheNotoriousMMA #MayMacWorldTour pic.twitter.com/QNlAc9dKZR

Based on that exchange, it seems Drake and McGregor are pretty good friends — the UFC star even shouted out the rapper during his press conference that night with a “started at the bottom, now we’re here” reference. Maybe Drake will get a discount on the extremely pricey ringside seats.
