The fight of the century in CinemaPlus

23.08.2017

On August 27 at 07:30 in the morning the premium CinemaPlus Azerbaijan and CinemaPlus Ganjlik Mall will screen the long-awaited fight "The money fight" between American boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Irishman Conor MacGregor, who is the current UFC champion.

However, none of the leading boxing organizations intends to recognize this battle as official. The venue for the historic duel will be Las Vegas.

Each of the fighters will receive $100 million for the fight, with the total income of its participants and organizers predicted to be about $636 million.

American soldier Floyd Mayweather Jr., nicknamed Money, is the highest paid boxer in history. Throughout his career, he has fought 49 fights and won all of them without exception, 26 of them by knockout.

The last time he entered the ring was in 2015. He decided to resume his career in March 2017 specifically to clear out his relationship with McGregor.

Conor McGregor is younger than Floyd Mayweather Jr. by 11 years. He fought 24 fights in mixed martial arts, winning 21 of them (18 by knockout) with three defeats.

He is the first in the history of the UFC to manage to become a two-time champion in different weight classes simultaneously.
