Floyd Mayweather enters the ring for boxing match against Aaron Chalmers in London

Floyd Mayweather took on Aaron Chalmers in an exhibition boxing match in London on Saturday, going the distance with the reality TV star-turned-fighter.

Mayweather, who turned 46 on Friday, is a former multi-weight world champion, while 35-year-old Chalmers is best known for his time on Geordie Shore, though he has since fought professionally in mixed martial arts and boxing.

And Mayweather, who retired unbeaten as a professional in 2017, was content to go all eight, two-minute rounds with Chalmers at the O2 Arena, as the American boxed on UK soil for the first time ever.

Mayweather toyed with and taunted the Briton throughout, before commending Chalmers for having a “good chin” and being “tough as nails”.

The first fight of the night is now 45 minutes behind schedule. If organisers are waiting for the O2 Arena to fill up, they may be waiting until March; the top tier is curtained off, and the bottom tier is less than half-full.
