Floyd Mayweather opponent Aaron Chalmers fighting Love Island star this weekend

Aaron Chalmers, who took Floyd Mayweather the distance in an exhibition bout earlier this year, is back in action over the weekend as he clashes with Love Island star Idris Virgo.

In February, Mayweather, 46, went all eight rounds with Chalmers at The O2 Arena in London. However, the reality TV star was outclassed by the American in every round of the un-scored bout.

And Chalmers will step back into the ring on Saturday evening when he faces Virgo. Virgo currently boasts an impressive 13-0 record, and, like Chalmers, first rose to fame thanks to reality TV.

Virgo appeared on the hit TV show Love Island. The 30-year-old entered the villa, during the fourth season, on Day 36, but he was dumped from the island four days later.

Chalmers told talkSPORT ahead of the bout: "I’m 37 next year, so I’ve got 12 to 18 months left. So, if I can get some big fights and call it a day, then that would be it. I would absolutely f****** love to fight Jake [Paul], that would be a dream."
