The historic fight between Conor McGregor and Floyd Mayweather is going down on August 26th, at 9 PM Eastern Standard Time.
Are you going to be tuning in to the most anticipated fight in a long, long time?
This upcoming bout is certainly one for the history books. Floyd Mayweather retired with an impressive undefeated record, putting the boots back on specifically for this fight. He’ll be going up against Conor McGregor, the biggest star the UFC has to offer and the toughest man in the Octagon.
So who is going to win? Betting odds are naming Mayweather as the favorite, which does make sense. Boxing is Mayweather’s game, and it’s going to be something new for McGregor. However, if you’ve seen McGregor fight, you know he’s an absolute beast. I’d say it’s more akin to go either way, but I’m actually calling for McGregor to win. Let’s not forget that Mayweather is retired and McGregor is at the top of his game!
