Here's the complete stats for the Mayweather vs McGregor fight (and likely winner)

Floyd Mayweather's fight against Conor McGregor in August is set to break all of boxing's box-office records.

Purses well into nine figures are assured for both fighters despite McGregor having no previous experience in the sport.

Here we look at how the two fighters measure up - including some of the key statistics around the fight.

Floyd Mayweather height, net worth, weight and fight record


Mayweather has an undefeated professional fight record of 49-0 with 26 knockouts.

He is widely regarded as one of the best defensive fighters ever, and prides himself on his ability to evade punishment with his skillful movement about the ring while making adjustments against opponents on the fly.

A win for 40-year-old Mayweather would move him ahead of former heavyweight great Rocky Marciano, who also retired with a perfect 49-0 career record.

His huge fight with Manny Pacquiao in 2015 has helped push Mayweather's net worth to around €350million, around £271million, according to Forbes earlier this year. Both he and McGregor are expected to earn nine-figure sums for this fight, with Mayweather reportedly in line for a $400million pay day.

Mayweather is a welterweight - 150lb, or 69kg - and stands 5ft 8in tall.

Conor McGregor stats, net worth, weight and fight record


McGregor's MMA fight record stands at 24 bouts, 21 wins and three defeats - 18 of those victories have come via knockout.

The 28-year-old's most recent defeat was against Nate Diaz at UFC 196 in March last year, but the Irishman defeated him in a rematch at UFC 202.

McGregor's career up to now has helped him to a net worth of $34million (£26million).

He has fought at several weight levels, most recently at welterweight and lightweight.

Other fight statistics


Here, Press Association Sport takes a closer look at the numbers behind the controversial contest:

0 - Number of amateur and professional boxing bouts McGregor has been involved in.
49 - Number of consecutive victories racked up by Mayweather as a professional.
600,000,000 - Total projected amount (in US dollars) expected to be grossed by the contest.
2 - Number of UFC titles currently held by McGregor.
19,500,000 - Total number of pay-per-view buys for Mayweather bouts in his career to date.
13 - Seconds it took McGregor to knock out Jose Aldo and win the UFC featherweight title in December 2015.
5,000,000 - Amount in dollars paid by Mayweather for a Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita - one of the world's rarest cars - last year.
25 - Hours of community service undertaken by McGregor as punishment for a bottle-throwing incident prior to his match with Nate Diaz.

Fam, who do you see winning the record-breaking fight?

One in eight UK youth have never seen a real cow

One in eight young people in the UK have never seen a cow in real life, according to a survey. While they may have spotted a cow on television, 12pc of 18 to 24-year-olds in the UK are so unfamiliar with the countryside they have never seen cattle in person. A fifth said they have never even left the city they live in (18pc). The research also found a substantial lack of knowledge among young adults when it comes to basic fruit and vegetables. More than half of those polled did not know strawberries are a summer fruit (54pc) and nine in ten do not know turnips are best grown in the winter. Over half say it is more than a year since they climbed a tree (51pc), while for 29 per cent it is that long since they swam in a river. Four in ten confess their knowledge of the countryside is 'poor' or 'extremely poor' (42pc). Just two in ten believe their knowledge of the countryside is 'good' or 'excellent'.

The viral video has reportedly amassed thousands of views on Facebook.. Here's the video of Serena Beuford, 27, who was at a local Boston gym doing squats when an awkward event happened. According to her sister, Beuford was filming an Instagram video and hoped to get famous for her 64-inch backside. She had gotten the implants from an unlicensed clinic that is now under investigation. Dealing in complete hypotheticals, Dr. Steinbrech says, "The only way that that could be is if someone took breast sizers, which is basically a balloon that we blow up with saline or air just to see how big the implant is. Moral of this story? Don't get illegal butt injections. Get famous on Instagram by posting pictures of something instead.

Olga Valerio, 49, outed herself as one half of the dynamic duo that sparked the most 911-hotline complaints in the city for loud love. The hairstylist’s partner in the act inside her Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, apartment is a man young enough to be her son, 26-year-old building handyman Byron Perez. Olga’s fourth-floor pad at 7201 Ridge Blvd. was named in a 2015 DNAinfo report as home to the city’s highest number of 911 gripes about clamorous coitus. Neighbors, claiming the couple’s shouts and grunts jolted them awake at all hours of the night, complained a half-dozen times alone in a three-month period, the site reported, citing city data. The happy couple even reportedly shared their own video online. So far, the couple have not proffered any solution to stop cops from bugging their affair.
