Mayweather is undefeated in 49 bouts in his boxing career and is coming out of retirement for this matchup, which would represent a big enough draw regardless of opponent. However, McGregor adds to the intrigue as one of the biggest stars in the UFC. And he's attempting to make the conversion to boxing against one of the best fighters in the history of the sport.

The bout itself should be memorable, but the press conferences will be fun as well with the way each competitor likes to trash-talk.

According to OddsShark, Mayweather is listed as a -650 favorite (bet $650 to win $100) with McGregor coming in as a +425 underdog (bet $100 to win $425).
