The much mooted fight between Conor McGregor and Floyd Mayweather is just days away from being announced.
Reports in the USA suggest the deal has been agreed between the undefeated professional boxer and the UFC superstar.
McGregor was issued with a boxing licence in California last year, but speculation is mounting that the scrap will take place in Las Vegas.
No date has been set, but the fighters are eyeing the first two weeks in June.
The T-Mobile Arena and the MGM Grand are among the venues being discussed as possible hosts for the fight.
The newly opened T-Mobile Arena can hold up to 20,000 fans. It’s staged UFC events in the past. The MGM Grand can seat 16,800.
ESPN reporter Steve Levy, who is close to the camps has tweeted to say that the fight is on the cusp of being announced.
