Mayweather vs. McGregor wagers result in biggest win ever for Las Vegas sportsbook

Floyd Mayweather took care of business against Conor McGregor, and that meant big business for Las Vegas betting sites.

According to Bovada SportsBook manager Kevin Bradley, Mayweather’s 10th-round TKO victory over Conor McGregor on Saturday busted the wallets of countless bettors who were banking on the UFC lightweight champion pulling off a historical upset in his first-ever pro boxing bout.

“As predicted, the amount of money and bets we took on the fight well surpassed the Super Bowl and it was our biggest wagered event ever, our biggest number of players ever, and also was our biggest single event win ever.
