According to reports, the first stop for their promotional tour will be London. Loads of fans can attend in what is expected to be a free event. The details for dates, ticketing and arrangements are still undisclosed.

It is widely rumoured to take place at the Wembley stadium in London.

People may call it 'a farce', 'a circus' and 'it is all about the money', but when the two meet it will be a thrilling contest no doubt.

Both the fighters are expected to earn close to $100 million from the bout, which would make it one of the richest in history.
