The countdown is on to the biggest fight that planet Earth has ever seen. Two worlds will collide when boxing legend Floyd Mayweather puts his undefeated record on the line against UFC champion Conor McGregor. It’s a spectacle that has garnered interest everywhere you go, and whether it turns out to be a great fight or not, both combatants are set to pocket a mind-blowing amount of money when they step into the ring on Sunday.
While Mayweather and McGregor are guaranteed enormous pay days, the team over at Sportsbet are giving Australian punters at home an equally outrageous opportunity at profit with their #BYOMayMac promotion.
Between now and fight day, simply jump onto Twitter and using the hashtag #BYOMayMac let the team at @Sportsbetcomau know what outrageous market you would like to bet on for the fight. It can be anything you can think of. The more outlandish the better!
One punter has asked for $7,000 on McGregor to throw the first punch of the fight within 10 seconds, plus Conor to win by KO in Rounds 1-4 for a potential return of $105,000!
867 people have taken the $101 on offer for Mayweather to be knocked out in both Round 1 and Round 2 and McGregor to win by KO in Round 3!
Sportsbet punters can also get $251 for Mayweather to bite McGregor’s ear, or $101 for both fighters to be knocked out simultaneously.
“We couldn’t be bothered thinking of novelty bets for the fight so we’ve asked our punters to do the hard work for us and to be honest, they’ve done a much better job than we could have. We’ll know who to ring next time we’re hiring!” said sportsbet.com.au’s Christian Jantzen.
