Big money showed up in Las Vegas on Thursday, shaking up the odds for Saturday's megafight between Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor.

The MGM sportsbook took a $1 million bet on Mayweather at -550 odds from a VIP casino guest, who wired in the money to the casino cage Thursday afternoon, MGM vice president of race and sports Jay Rood told ESPN.

The bet would net just under $182,000, if Mayweather prevails.

The $1 million bet on Mayweather is the largest reported wager on the fight to this point out of Las Vegas. It moved the odds on the undefeated boxing champion to -600 at the MGM.
