Aaron Chalmers' baby son will have major head surgery just two days after Floyd Mayweather fight

Geordie Shore star Aaron Chalmers' baby son Oakley will undergo major head surgery just two days after he faces Floyd Mayweather.

The former Bellator MMA fighter transitioned to boxing after two years of training last year, but has hit multiple snags in his young career due to health issues outside of the ring and missed match-ups in it. However, after a frustrating debut year with just one four-round bout to show for his efforts, he has landed a huge opportunity as a late-notice opponent for Mayweather on February 25.

And he will have his son on his mind when he races home from London the day after his bout with the boxing legend, skipping his beloved Newcastle United's Carabao Cup Final against Manchester United. He will have an intimate celebration at home with family, and on Monday Oakley will undergo another surgery.
