Chelsea star Didier Drogba's charity ball auctioned off VIP tickets to the Floyd Mayweather -Manny Pacquiao showpiece in Las Vegas later this weekend.
While half the world is struggling to buy tickets to what has been labelled the "Fight of the Century",the Ivorian superstar and his friends put up their tickets for sale to raise a funds to help build a medical clinic in Abidjan.
According to reports,the event which also had Ghanaian Afro pop star Fuse ODG performing along with Christina Milan raised a staggering £400,000 for Drogba's foundation.
The Didier Drogba Foundation has provided financial support across health and education in Africa since it was founded in 2007, and following the fourth ball to be held, many more children in villages outside of Abidjan will now receive treatment for medical conditions through mobile clinics.
Drogba was thankful to team-mates Petr Cech, Eden Hazard, Branislav Ivanovic, Gary Cahill, Juan Cuadrado, Nemanja Matic and John Terry for attending the ball, alongside many other guests which included Thierry Henry, Edgar Davids and Jermaine Defoe
