The world has stopped so Conor McGregor can box Floyd Mayweather. It wouldn’t be surprising if the laws of physics themselves start to disintegrate. UFC events have been put on hold until after the boxing match, fighters are being asked to submit their prediction videos to be proliferated through social media, the Nevada State Athletic Commission even threw out their rules, what else does Mayweather/McGregor have in store for us? A big budget music video, that’s what. Las Vegas rock band The Killers will release a music video for their song for the historic event.

The music video will be for the song “The Man” off of their upcoming fifth studio album, Wonderful Wonderful. The funny thing is, The Killers already have a music video for the song, but are creating a completely new video for Showtime ahead of the big May/Mac fight. While people have written songs for Conor McGregor in the past, this will be the first time a band of this notoriety is directly involved with him. The Killers’ new album is released on September 22nd of this year and is available for preorder now.
