You just know this is going to be all kinds of insane…

Pitting the worlds of boxing and MMA against each other, this fight has everyone in combat sports talking. Although normally known for their own banter, Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor have remained quiet on the most part.

That’s all set to change, though, as their world tour is kicking off today. Featuring three countries, 10,000KM of travelling, and four major cities worldwide, the MayMac tour will undoubtedly be nuts to watch.

With both men being known for their on-screen antics, there hasn’t been a press conference in modern history as highly anticipated as this.

Conor McGregor has the edge in age, but the experience is all on Floyd Mayweather’s side…

Dana White Predicts Mayhem

Speaking to FOX Sports, UFC president Dana White teased an epic first press conference (July 11, 2017, that’s TONIGHT!):

“I think it’s going to be a hybrid of the boxing press conferences and UFC press conferences. Maybe more of a boxing press conference than it is ours,” White said after UFC 213 on Sunday.

“You know how mine are … No bull****, we walk in and we sit down and go ‘what’s up? Who has the first question?’ and we get rolling. It’s going to be ****ing s*** show, you know that,” he said. Absolute s*** show. So who knows (what will happen)? It’s going to be crazy.”

“I think there’s going to be a lot more bull**** in this one. Conor and I will come in and sit down and answer questions and when we’re asked questions. But I think there’s going to be a lot of speeches and all that.”

Conor McGregor will make his pro boxing debut against one of the greatest ring technicians ever, Floyd Mayweather. Is this an ill-fated task for the Irish UFC star?

Is This Where McGregor Will Win The Fight?

Many people have talked about McGregor’s apparent lack in boxing skills, but few have mentioned his ability to verbally torture his opponents. ‘The Notorious’ basically goaded Jose Aldo to running straight in and getting knocked out cold at UFC 194?

If he’s planning on doing the same to ‘Money,’ then tonight is where the mental warfare will begin. Mayweather has faced some serious hitters in the boxing world, but very few of them possessed the ability to get inside his head.
