Floyd Mayweather vs Don Moore tale of the tape: How boxers compare ahead of bizarre fight on top of helipad

FLOYD MAYWEATHER will lace up his gloves again this weekend for another lucrative exhibition match.

The former five-weight world champion will take part in another light-hearted dust-up atop the world-famous Burj Khalifa in Dubai on Saturday.

How the former sparring partners stack-up

Mayweather’s foe for his third exhibition since retiring from professional boxing – which takes place on the Burj’s helipad – will be a familiar face.

Money will lock horns with his former sparring partner Don Moore – who was once a staple of his training camps.

The contest promises to be more a competitive one than Mayweather’s recent clash with YouTuber Logan Paul.

So SunSport thought it’d only be right to tell you everything you need to know about the pair’s upcoming desert dust-up.

Physical

Moore is the taller of the pair but will likely enter the ring lighter than his old pal.

He stands at 5’10 but weighed in less than Mayweather for his final professional outing against DeShaun Williams in September 2016.

The American tipped the scale at 10 stone, 5lbs last time out, a whole nine pounds lighter than Mayweather was for his clash with Paul.

Moore will also boast a two-inch reach advantage over Mayweather, with his arms extending 74 inches in comparison to the boxing great’s 72.

Experience

Moore called time on his career having taken to the ring 19 times as a professional, failing to have his hand raised just once.
