McGregor talks trash, Mayweather stoic at weigh-in showdown (Video)
The big fight — Floyd Mayweather vs. Conor McGregor — is, at last, only one day away. Friday, the two fighters went face to face at the official weigh-in.
Their dispositions were strikingly different. Mayweather, the 49-0 boxing legend, stood silently. McGregor, the UFC wunderkind, shouted vulgar trash talk right in Mayweather’s face.
Then the fired-up Irishman turned, slapped his chest, flexed and unleashed his screams at the crowd. Check out video of the face-off below.

They were both under the 154-pound weight limit. As expected, McGregor was heavier — by nearly four pounds. McGregor weighed in at 153 while Mayweather was 149.5.
