“Mayweather” vs “McGregor”
In the who’s who of the boxing world we would like to proudly present our very own Mayweather versus McGregor of the animal kingdom. Video courtesy of Kruger Sightings’ YouTube channel.

phpBB [video]


48 year old, Walter Becker was the lucky guy to have caught this action on film. He tells Latestsightings.com all about the battle: “It was a blustery and overcast day and since we were not seeing much we decided to head out to Mlondozi dam.

On the way there, we came across 2 huge giraffes grazing nearby the road. I started to take some footage most likely out of the frustration of not seeing much that day. To myself and my parent’s amazement, another male giraffe entered the scene looking to stamp down his authority on the unsuspecting bystanders.


Don't worry, they get up again, just unconscious for a bit! lol
