UFC Fight Pass crashed during the beginning of Floyd Mayweather vs. Conor McGregor on Saturday night

After what has seemed like an incredibly long wait, we are finally here on August 26, which means that it’s time to see Conor McGregor and Floyd Mayweather get in the boxing ring with one another. Of course, if you were smart, you would have ordered this fight in advance and not at the very last minute as you made your mind up, because we’ve seen the kind of problems that can cause.

Well, of course, that was the case on Saturday night.

With this mega fight featuring the most famous member of the UFC in Conor McGregor, it was made possible for you to order the fight through the MMA promotion. However, just as the first fight on the undercard was taking place on Saturday night, that’s when disaster struck.

So it does indeed appear that there are some people out there having some crash issues when it comes to ordering the fight, which is not good news for the biggest event in the history of combat sports.

Even legendary college basketball announcer Dick Vitale was having issues ordering the fight at the last minute.

Again, this is very much not the ideal situation here with this event, but these things will happen. When Mayweather had his much-anticipated fight with Manny Pacquiao, there were major issues with ordering that fight as well.

Hopefully everything can get figured out in a hurry, as there are people out there who have decided to watch Floyd Mayweather take on Conor McGregor.
