After months of build‑up, bragging, publicity stunts and insults it is almost time for Floyd Mayweather Junior and Conor McGregor to step into the ring together.
During the weigh-in this morning, McGregor tips the scales at 153pounds which is 69kg while Mayweather is five pounds under the limit at 149.5pounds which is 67kg.
Mayweather was asked about the travelling Irish fans and if they will they help McGregor. He says the fans cannot fight for anyone.
While responding to Mayweather, McGregor says that Mayweather looks blown out, out of shape and scared.
The World Boxing Council last night presented a special emerald belt called “The Money Belt” for the historic matchup studded with 3,360 diamonds, 600 sapphires, 300 emeralds and 1.5 kilograms of solid, 24 karat gold.
With the estimated revenue and splits in mind, Mayweather is expected to take US$230 million while McGregor will take US$70million.
The fight will start at about 3pm tomorrow.
