After months of hype, the date that fight fans have been waiting for is nearly upon us. Conor McGregor and Floyd Mayweather Jr. will finally turn barroom debates and Twitter arguments into an actual flesh-and-blood boxing match.

Can Mayweather still stick and move at age 40? Has McGregor refined his boxing skills enough to unseat a champion like Money in his professional debut?
