“I’m very interested to go. They’ve actually got a new deal with Paramount, it’s worth $7.7 billion.
“So the company has 4xed its profit, and my contract, essentially, is void right now because there’s no more pay-per-view, whereas my contract was based on pay-per-view sales.
“I’m the highest-generating pay-per-view fighter of all time. The pay-per-view system is done, I’m due a new contract.
“So, we’re going into negotiations in February, and I’m very interested to see how it goes.”
