CONOR McGregor will face a lawsuit if he attempts to kick Floyd Mayweather during their $500million mega-fight.
The UFC champion has agreed to face the best boxer of his generation in Las Vegas on August 26.
But he will be shorn of the mixed martial arts skill set that saw him crowned a two-weight champion last year, Mirror reported.
UFC president Dana White said: “That [kicking] will not happen; it’s in the contract. This is a boxing match under the Nevada commission under the rules of boxing.
“We talk about a guy of Floyd Mayweather’s value in the sport – the lawsuit if that ever happened…
“Conor loves money and he would lose a lot of money if that happened.”
McGregor beat Eddie Alvarez last November to win the UFC’s lightweight belt, 11 months on from winning the featherweight crown by beating Jose Aldo.
But he has never fought a professional boxer – and Mayweather is unbeaten in his previous 49 contests.
