According to multiple sources, the highly-anticipated cross-sport mega-fight between undefeated former pound-for-pound king Floyd Mayweather and UFC multi-division champion Conor McGregor is officially on! Although details are still unclear, the fight will take place on August 26.
Earlier today, the Nevada State Athletic Commission approved a request from Mayweather Promotions to stage a boxing event at MGM Grand on that date. The venue could very well change to T-Mobile, however. Check back soon for more details.
[UPDATE: According to UFC President Dana White, the bout will take place at 154 pounds and the venue will indeed be T-Mobile arena.]
