Floyd Mayweather vs Aaron Chalmers Preview
Mayweather is finally making his long-awaited UK debut on May 2 at London’s O2 Arena, where he will face Geordie Shore’s, Aaron Chalmers.
As part of Mayweather’s ongoing series of exhibitions against fighters from the entertainment industry, the boxing legend will face the reality TV star turned professional MMA star. In November, Mayweather fought British YouTube star Deji in an exhibition in Dubai; the bout was part of a misfits boxing card that also featured Tommy Fury.
This fight takes place the night before Fury’s bout with Jake Paul, following previous speculation that they would be on the same card. Mayweather, who had one of the most decorated professional careers in sports history, is continuing his retirement with this exhibition fight.
Having spent the vast majority of his career fighting in the United States, this will be Mayweather’s first fight in the United Kingdom. In that time, Chalmers has fought seven times, but he hasn’t fought in the Octagon since 2020, so facing Mayweather in a boxing exhibition will be quite the challenge.
Originally, Mayweather was scheduled to fight Muay Thai superstar Liam Harrison, but after Harrison pulled out with an injury, Chalmers stepped in.
