Las Vegas is soon to host one of the most lucrative boxing matches of all time. Dubbed “The Money Fight” it features UFC (which stands for the Ultimate Fighting Championship) star Conor Mcgregor making his boxing debut against undefeated boxer Floyd Mayweather. What is not in doubt is that both men will leave the bout much wealthier than they go into it—both expected to earn in excess of $100 million for their participation. With $90 million worth of tickets for sale and $500 million of pay-per-view revenue expected to be made, it’s set to be boxing’s most lucrative match ever.
