Mayweather Vs. McGregor: Where To Watch Near Brookfield?
The fight that has captured the attention of the sports world is less than a week away. Here is where you can watch the fight near you.

LAS VEGAS, NV — Some call it spectacle, others are calling it the fight of the century. Whichever definition you choose, the mega fight between five-division world champion Floyd "Money" Mayweather and UFC lightweight champion "The Notorious" Conor McGregor is set to go down Saturday night at the T-Mobile arena in Las Vegas.
In a clash of two worlds, the boxer Mayweather will test his perfect 49-0 professional record against the mixed martial artist McGregor under the traditional Marquess of Queensberry boxing rules. While McGregor brings two world titles and a 21-3 mixed martial arts record, he has never had a professional boxing match and has limited amateur experience.
“Pretty Boy Floyd,” whose hometown is in Grand Rapids, Michigan, will also be competing to break Rocky Marciano’s record for the most victories in an undefeated career.

Experts and insiders say the event is projected to shatter both revenue and pay-per-view records previously set by Mayweather during his 2015 bout with Manny Pacquiao, which would make Saturday's event one of the highest-grossing single-night sporting events of all time.
While 4.4 million pay-per-view sales were made in 2015, consumers left the fight with lighter wallets and bad tastes in their mouths after Mayweather put on an uneventful defensive clinic.
