Some 50 million people may tune-in to watch Saturday's fight between Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor, according to a recent Associated Press article.

At a cost of $99.95 on Pay-Per-View, it has the reported potential to surpass the previous sales records, set two years ago when Mayweather faced off against Manny Pacquiao. 

If that fee is a bit steep for your wallet, a few businesses and restaurants around the Valley are hosting watch parties and the entrance fee is less than $100. The fight is set to start at 6 p.m.
