Mayweather-McGregor is actually going to happen on August 26th, and it looks like Chad Johnson wants in on the action. Johnson could easily just buy tickets and watch as a fan, but according to his Twitter account, he wants to fight on one of the undercards before the PPV main event.

His YouTube videos show that he has some boxing skill, but he has never had a professional fight. You might think Chad Johnson tweeting about joining the Mayweather undercard is ridiculous, but a year ago we all thought that it would be unlikely for Mayweather-McGregor to actually happen – and here we are.
