In 2017, the biggest martial arts event that year was the confrontation between Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor on the boxing floor. Despite the difference between the two boxers, it is still considered one of the most huge sports events in history.
The match was held at T-Mobile Arena, Las Vegas, the event dubbed this “billion-dollar match” was closed with the victory of TKO belonging to Floyd Mayweather in the 10th half.

“Definitely! He is easy to lower.”
Meanwhile, McGregor is expected to rematch with the leading rival Lightweight UFC Dustin Poirier at UFC 264 next month. Earlier at UFC 257, Poirier defeated the “crazy guy” McGregor in the second half with very heavy and accurate left hand punches.
As for Mayweather, he is focusing on the “super performing” match with Youtuber that he just switched to Boxer – Logan Paul. In this match, Floyd Mayweather was expected to quickly lower Ko Logan Paul in the 8th half.
