The Conor McGregor and Floyd Mayweather Fight Is Officially On

In what will most certainly be the biggest pay-per-view event of all time, UFC superstar Conor McGregor will step into the boxing ring against the undefeated legend Floyd “Money” Mayweather this summer. After months and months of hype, the two sides finally came to an agreement to square up in Vegas on August 26. To no one’s surprise, Mayweather has opened as the overwhelming favorite over the Irish MMA sensation, but, as Dana White, the president of the UFC said, “I stopped doubting Conor a long time ago.” While the defensive prowess of Mayweather against a southpaw with a piston for a left hand will surely be the story in the fight, perhaps the best thing about this contest will be the trash talk that leads up to it, as neither fighter has ever been shy with their words. Just clear your calendar for August 26 and get ready to shell out a pretty penny on the PPV.
