Will this weekend’s boxing battle between Floyd “Money” Mayweather and Conor McGregor be the fight of the century? The jury’s out on that one, but it’s definitely the biggest bout in recent memory.
Who’s going to win? Currently, the oddsmakers are favoring Mayweather in the contest (4-1), which takes place this Saturday. But, if nothing else, it should be a memorable affair.
And if you can’t justify the pay-per-view’s $89.95 price tag (or $99.95 for HD), a number of viewing parties and events will be happening at various casinos, bars and even movie theaters around Las Vegas.
