LAS VEGAS — Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor aren't just fighting for money in the boxing spectacle of the summer.
The winner also gets The Money Belt.
The World Boxing Council has created a special prize for this weekend's 154-pound showdown, which isn't actually for any real WBC championship.
Instead, WBC President Mauricio Sulaiman on Wednesday revealed the gloriously blingy Money Belt , which is studded with 3,360 diamonds, 600 sapphires, 300 emeralds and 1 1/2 kilograms of 24-karat gold on green Italian alligator leather.
Sulaiman grinningly showed off the Money Belt and Mayweather posed for photos with it after a news conference for Saturday's show.
The WBC also created a similarly shiny monstrosity for Mayweather's 2015 bout with Manny Pacquiao. Mayweather was a longtime WBC champion before his retirement.
