McGregor vs Mayweather: Fighting experts weigh in on the match
Updated | By Jane Linley-Thomas
The highly-anticipated boxing match will take place on Saturday, 26 August. Listen as two experts share their thoughts on who is going to win.
I am surprised at how excited I am about a boxing match, especially this match. I'm not that girl usually. However, when it comes to Connor McGregor, I am a little girl. I will be up from 3:00am local time on Sunday for the preamble. Go, Conor! Okay, so now you know who I have my money on.
Conor McGregor and Floyd Mayweather will go head-to-head on Saturday, 26 August in Las Vegas for what's being called 'The Fight of the Century'. I am anxiously waiting for the fight and will be up early, snuggled up, and glued to my TV set - oh, and attempting not to scream and wake the kids up. Ha!

I watched his TV show 'The Notorious' and fell in love with his character, discipline, and showmanship. Adding to that the love he has for his family and his wife makes my heart so warm.
I think I may be the only person that's backing Conor as the people in the know keep talking about him being out of his depth. Many have their money on Mayweather - even our very own Sky Tshabalala from East Coast Breakfast, who wrote an opinion piece on why he thinks Mayweather will take it.
Take a listen as Dallas Jakobi, local fighting fitness gym owner, and Ballito-based EFC champion Amanda Lino share their thoughts on the match and their predictions on who will win.
