Ding ding.
Round three is upon us.
The first night was a close 10-9 victory for Floyd Mayweather. We scored Wednesday evening a resounding 10-8 in favour of Conor McGregor.
And with the momentum clearly behind ‘The Notorious’, it’s hard to envision anything other than another win for the Irishman when the MayMac world tour lands in New York City on Thursday night.
We’ve already seen flags snatched, bags grabbed and the confrontation of a Showtime executive.
So it would be safe to assume that things are going to kick off in New York, the penultimate stop on this epic four-city tour.
Toronto was pretty clearly pro-McGregor and we should likely expect the same type of crowd in New York, the city which played host to the Dubliner’s most famous victory to date, when he became the first fighter in UFC history to hold a title in two different weight classes simultaneously with a highlight reel stoppage of Eddie Alvarez in Madison Square Garden.
The action gets underway at the later time of 11.30pm BST but it will almost certainly be worth staying up for.
Enjoy!
