On August 26th, all eyes will be on Conor McGregor and Floyd Mayweather as the two will finally lock horns in the ring after months of trash talk.
Whether you are a fan of boxing and MMA or not, chances are you'll watch the fight, that's how big it has become.
Plus, every celebrity and athlete is being asked about what they think will happen, so that makes things more interesting, too.
Obviously Floyd (49-0) is the favourite and most people are predicting he'll win, but McGregor has more than a fighter's chance. In fact, depending on who you ask, some think he has a really good chance.
Monday, actor Idris Elba joined ESPN's First Take to explain why he thinks McGregor has a really good chance of beating Floyd.
For those that don't know, Elba knows a lot about the sport because he's tried to become a professional kickboxer.
Elba brings up some really good and interesting points.
For starters, the power McGregor possesses will be a problem for Mayweather IF (and it's a big if) he can connect.
That, plus Conor's unique fighting style, which Elba eluded to, makes him a very unpredictable opponent and one that Floyd hasn't faced before.
Still, it's hard to bet against a man that is undefeated. His record and ability speaks for itself, and on August 26th (yes, we're finally in August), he'll have a chance to remind the world just how good he is.
