Harry Kane antagonises Conor McGregor with inflammatory call-out

SportsJOE

It’s all hype, this UFC business.

So before you start the training or get down to the serious business of fighting, it it best to start selling your fight.

Harry Kane’s unlikely campaign to be Conor McGregor’s opponent for UFC 200 began with his unlikely promoter Delle Alli pushing the fight on Tuesday.

The Spurs and England striker upped the ante on Wednesday by posting a potential poster for the Ireland-England bout on Twitter.

With this effort he is certainly pushing the Notorious’ buttons – where is McGregor’s featherweight belt? Huh?

McGregor has been clear in the past about how fussy he can be about his promotional posters.

Kane has got the hang of this fight business. Might want more than a mask to protect his face though. He broke his nose in training, one hates to think what might happen if he stepped in the Octagon.

A fox in the box, poor Kane is likely to be hopped upon in the Octagon.
