The growing anticipation about the Mayweather vs McGregor rematch brought us here to look back at the best moments from their first-ever fight. Let's take a look.
The initial staredown between McGregor and Mayweather was an intense 90 seconds staredown. The Irishman came up all decked up in a suit while Mayweather was wearing a TMT hoodie. The two had an extremely heated exchange of words.
The Irishman needs no introduction when it comes to trash talks. He made a comment on Mayweather's clothes and spoke about the fate of the match while Mayweather appeared all chill.
Mayweather enjoyed the moment, and it was no less than a standup comedy for him. Mayweather said, “He looks good for a seven- or eight-figure fighter but I’m a nine-figure fighter,” he boasted. “God don’t make mistakes and he only made one thing perfect and that’s my boxing record.”
During the bout, McGregor landed a counter right uppercut on Mayweather, a punch that few of the fighters have ever tried on Mayweather.
Mayweather defeated McGregor by a technical knockout (TKO) in the 10th round.
