The five-minute fan-made video chronicles the making and promotion of Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor from the beginning in stunning fashion.

Showtime and UFC’s promotion of this month’s massive Floyd Mayweather-Conor McGregor fight is in full swing, but that isn’t stopping fans from creating their own hype packages for the Aug. 26 boxing spectacle.

YouTube user Youssef Hannoun posted the promo video he titles “Take it All” and clocks in just shy of five minutes. In those five short minutes, Hannoun tells the story of Mayweather’s retirement, McGregor’s pleas to have the fight made all the way through July’s world press-tour.

The video is as professional looking as anything you would expect to see from UFC or Showtime and features fight footage as well as media appearances from Mayweather, McGregor, and UFC President Dana White.

“Who would not like to dance around the ring for $180 million,” McGregor is heard telling talk show host Conan O’Brien early in the video of a potential fight with Mayweather. This moment was taken from a July 2015 appearance on “Conan” when McGregor was promoting his UFC 189 fight against Chad Mendes. At the time McGregor had yet to establish himself as UFC’s top attraction, but even then, he could see the potential fortune that could be made in a fight with Mayweather.

Fast-forward two years later and the fight is now official and the size of its scope is apparent.

“It will be the biggest fight ever in the history of two people punching each other,” White says in an interview included in the promo.

But as monumental as this fight is, few seem to be giving McGregor much of a chance when it is time to throw down. Quotes from media featured in the video deriding McGregor’s chances include “Conor McGregor has a 0% chance,” and “He’s fighting one of the greatest pure boxers of all time. It’s absurd.”

As absurd as the fight may sound to some, it’s a reality. Floyd Mayweather fights Conor McGregor live on pay-per-view on Aug. 26 from T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
