McGregor Mayweather presser

THE fight of our generation is less than a week away and the team at Sportsbet.com.au has thrown open the doors to the clients to come up with their best Floyd Mayweather vs. Conor McGregor bets.

Using the hashtag #BYOMayMac, punters are able to put together their weirdest and wildest outcomes for what is sure to be the biggest sporting spectacle of 2017.

Such is the demand to make your own bet that Sportsbet have had to split the sections up from any bets that will generate less than $4 all the way up to triple figure prices.

Anyone who thinks Mayweather will follow in the footsteps of Mike Tyson and get disqualified for biting McGregor’s ear can get a huge +25000 return on any bet, while the equally as unlikely scenario of McGregor getting knocked out and his pants falling down will deliver a +10000 dividend.

Punters who think history can repeat itself following McGregor’s 13-second knockout of Jose Aldo can get +15000 for the first punch of the fight to result in a KO.

Two of the most likely outcomes in the eyes of Sportsbet are Mayweather and McGregor hugging after the fight -10000 and Conor to do the infamous billionaire strut (-3333.33) at any point throughout the night.

As for the experts, they are not certain the match will stay as pure as predicted.

Former heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis believes there is a possibility that McGregor will revert to his MMA training if things do not go his way.

“Is McGregor going to throw a kick because, obviously when he resorts to boxing and realises he is no match for Mayweather, what will he do? How will he get around that?” Lewis said.

Punters can get +800 on McGregor to throw a successful kick to Mayweather.

Fans who think their sport will infiltrate the circus that is the Mayweather-McGregor fight have made their voices heard too.

The infamous “Wenger Out” sign made famous by disgruntled Arsenal fans is a +175 chance to make an appearance.

Another curious bet is related to the NRL, of all things.

Punters who think a random South Sydney fan will be shown on the coverage inside the arena can get +300 back on their investments, and we would not be surprised if an astute Bunnies fan lobbed a bunch of money on himself to win back the airfare and ticket price.

All BYO bets can be found here and any punter who does not find a market they are after can jump on Twitter using the hashtag #BYOMayMac to frame their own market on the fight.
