Where to watch Mayweather vs McGregor in Hong Kong
Aug 25, 2017
The so-called Money Fight is almost here—the culmination of an almost two-year rivalry between legendary boxer Floyd Mayweather Junior and Irish MMA superstar Conor McGregor. Even if you’re not a fan, you’ve heard about it: the fight is predicted to be the most lucrative in the history of combat sports, which is no stranger to oversized purses. Despite having never fought as either an amateur or professional boxer, McGregor is confident he’ll be able to do what Manny Pacquiao and others have failed to do before—“knock [Mayweather] out inside four rounds, mark my words.” A ballsy challenge to make considering Mayweather’s unbeaten record of 49-0.
It comes as no surprise, then, that iconic Irish and British pubs such as Trafalgar, McSorley’s Ale House, and Dickens Bar will be broadcasting the fight in Hong Kong and there’s no need to guess who they’ll be rooting for.
