The hype leading up to this historic event came unhinged during a four-city news conference tour earlier this summer, and betting for the match has reached unprecedented heights. It’s been a polarizing summer with the American public roughly split on rooting preferences. The event could have consequences far bigger than the bout itself and will capture the attention (and scrutiny) of the nation and beyond.
