In what many called “the fight of the year,” boxing legend Floyd Mayweather went toe-to-toe with UFC Lightweight Champion Conor McGregor this past Saturday, August 26th. The bout between the two men, which has been endlessly hyped over the past year, was predicted to be the highest grossing fight in history, and one of the most important ones of Mayweather’s career: a win would cement his nearly unmatched 50-0 record. Many fans were distracted, however, by Mayweather’s decision to enter the arena in a black ski-mask that covered his entire face. Why would the legend choose to wear that? Twitter had some potential answers:
