And so it begins. On July 11th, Conor McGregor and Floyd Mayweather will finally be in the same room together. After multiple rumors and false starts about just where the circus would officially kick off, the Staples Center Twitter account revealed that the first press conference in the expected would tour to promote one of the biggest fights in history will go down in just a matter of days.

What are we supposed to expect? Will it be low key? Are these two going to actually respect each other, or is the pageantry and madness of this whole matchup going to reflect the size and gravity of the fight and just go right off the rails? With Mayweather, you can expect balloon drops and relatively calm digs into the mic, but with McGregor, anything can happen. The last time we saw him at a press conference, he was dancing around in a mink coat and nearly chucking a chair at Eddie Alvarez

Of course, nothing will happen that would jeopardize the nine-figure payday these guys are expecting to deposit come Sunday, August 27th, but there’s a good possibility this extravaganza is going to be more entertaining than the next couple of major MMA cards.

You can get tickets here.
