Download Mayweather v McGregor: Fine fighting fayre or farce?

We preview the 'big fight' by profiling both fighters and ask why so many people are interested in a sporting event many feel a farce.

We also look at the way the fight has been marketed and whether it has been done so without consideration of the consequences.

Caroline Barker is joined by our boxing reporter Ade Adedoyin boxing writer Gabe Oppenheim, and we hear from Jeff Mayweather uncle of Floyd "Money" Mayweather and Katherine Redmond Brown founder of "The National Coalition Against Violent Athletes.
