If Conor and Floyd goes for a second fight,it would be one and only boxing,Floyd wouldnt fight MMA because there is no money to offer him and his sport is boxing,his made his name by being undefeated in it
Floyd is the A side on negotiation and conor is like the C side,it is floyd who show the options and not the UFC or Conor.
There is no way to promote kickboxing on US to create something big like you think for these points:
1) There is no good level kickboxing in USA.
2)No good kickboxing Athletes in USA,No way to compete against the kickboxing good level worldwide.
3)People from any country(especially USA) gets interested in a sport when there are good national representants,otherwise it cant generate interest for the giant casual public and market viability.
4)The way Boxing and MMA are promoted in US and haves success with it is because the country is a big potence in both sports and also the "WWE" way to promote fights with a lot of trash talking and narcissistic exhibitionism are a thing in there,Kickboxing fighters are not used to this "system" and a lot of them are not even 100 % fluent in english.
5) They couldnt Generate a big country attention when you have highy ranked athletes from all Europe,Asia,Some parts of africa and pretty much no americans-British guys.
6) It isnt economically safe to some org invest tons of money in it,the risk of it getting below of the expectations are obviously 100%, so it is a big waste of money.
7)They would have to try to develop "personality" of a lot highly ranked athletes from different cultures and it wouldnt work as expected, Boxing and especially MMA is not just about a fighting sports in US,is a lot about the "drama" and "what is going to happen when these to who hate each other fight in the ring"-.
8) Can you imagine this:
"I am going to tear his head off"
