As if you needed another reason to get excited.
The prospect of the match-up between the biggest star in the UFC and one of the best boxers of all-time doesn’t need any more hyping up, but The Rock has gone and taken our giddiness to a whole new level.
This is The Rock we’re talking about after all and Showtime have asked customers to cough up a lot of money to watch it, so they’ve no excuse for not getting the best of the best.
The man otherwise known as Dwayne Johnson has added his dulcet tones to an official promo for tonight’s fight, which tracks the story of both men and how the unlikeliest of fights came to be in the first place.
Pleasure doing this VO for our big fight tonight. Let's get after it boys. May the best man win. #MayweatherVMcGregor @TheNotoriousMMA @UFC pic.twitter.com/PUWYMv2PoD

Bring it on.
