BOXING fans have been left outraged after the record cost to buy Floyd Mayweather’s exhibition bout with Aaron Chalmers on pay-per-view was announced.
Former five-weight world champion Mayweather will be back in action on February 25 in an exhibition fight with the Geordie Shore-turned-MMA star.
Fight fans were fuming back in November when it was revealed they would have to fork out a UK TV record £26.95 to watch Tyson Fury’s last title defence against Derek Chisora.
However, now they will have to cough up EVEN MORE to watch this EXHIBITION.
The bout with Chalmers will be screened on the Zeus Network online in the UK.
And they are charging a whopping £32.26 to buy it.

“LOOOOOL WHAT,” replied one disgusted fan to the news, while another tweeted: “I’d rather pay to watch literally anything else!”
Another asked: “Sorry, what?”
While a fellow fan declared: “Ha ha they would have to pay me to watch that s***e.”
Mayweather was last in action at the end of 2022 when he stopped KSI’s brother Deji in the sixth round of their fight.
