The superfight of all superfights is just one week away, as UFC champion Conor McGregor makes his transition over to boxing against undefeated great Floyd Mayweather Jr. on Aug. 26 live on Showtime pay-per-view (PPV) from inside T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. Before McGregor swings his Irish fists at Mayweather’s moving head, the two combat stars will tip the scales this coming Friday for official weigh ins.

Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Conor McGregor, billed as “The Money Fight”, The 180 Million Dollar Dance is an upcoming professional boxing super fight between undefeated eleven-time five-division professional boxing champion of the world Floyd Mayweather Jr. and the current UFC Lightweight champion Conor McGregor. It will take place at the T-Mobile Arena in Paradise, Nevada on August 26, 2017.

Although the Irishman is a two-weight world champion in the sport of mixed martial arts, he has not boxed competitively since the age of 16, when he was an All-Ireland champion at youth level.

In contrast, Mayweather is widely regarded as one of the best defensive boxers to have ever lived.
He has been knocked to the canvas just once in his 21-year professional career – in a fight he would come back to win via a unanimous decision – and possesses the highest average punch connect rate of any active fighter, according to the respected computerized scoring system CompuBox.
Should he defeat McGregor, he will move ahead of former heavyweight great Rocky Marciano, who also retired with a perfect 49-0 career record.
