Floyd Mayweather vs Aaron Chalmers LIVE: Stream, latest updates and result fight tonight
Re-live all the action after Mayweather boxed reality TV star-turned-fighter 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”.

Aaron Chalmers had been preparing to fight a southpaw, but then came the confirmation that he would have an altogether different opponent – one with an orthodox stance. Then again, that wasn’t the only difference of note.
“I went into the gym,” Chalmers recalls to The Independent, “and I told the coach: ‘We’re not fighting a southpaw anymore. We’re fighting Floyd Mayweather.’
“He was just like: ‘What the f***? Well, we best get to work...’”

Follow live as Floyd Mayweather fights Aaron Chalmers in an exhibition boxing match this evening.
Mayweather, who turned 46 yesterday, retired unbeaten in 2017 with a professional record of 50-0, and the boxing legend has since competed in a series of exhibition bouts. The most recent, in November, saw the American beat YouTube star Deji via sixth-round TKO – while Mayweather’s previous exhibitions came against kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa, mixed martial artist Mikuru Asakura, YouTuber Logan Paul, and boxer Don Moore. Mayweather went the distance with Paul and Moore but defeated his other opponents inside the distance.
Next up for “Money” Mayweather is Chalmers, who is best known as a reality television star from his days on Geordie Shore, but who has since fought professionally in both MMA and boxing. The 35-year-old Briton went 5-2 in MMA before making his pro boxing debut last year, in a fight he won on points over four rounds.
Chalmers and Mayweather go head to head at the O2 Arena in London, as the latter competes in the UK for the first time ever.
