Geordie Shore star Aaron Chalmers will be fighting Floyd Mayweather in his first United Kingdom bout next month after his initial opponent pulled out. The legendary boxer was set to fight Kickboxer Liam Harrison in London on February 25 but the Muay-Thai champion pulled out of the bout at the O2 Arena.
The 50-0 boxer retired from the professional game back in 2017 having never fought outside of America in his professional career. However, Mayweather has travelled the world taking on exhibition bouts - competing in Japan and Dubai multiple times, as well as facing YouTuber Logan Paul in Miami in the summer of 2021.
Chalmers - best known for his stint in MTV's reality show Geordie Shore - has a fighting background in MMA under the Bellator and BAMMA banners, and recently winning his boxing debut.
