Conor McGregor snuck a naggin into first press conference before drinking with Dana White

Conor McGregor was bossing it.

The first press conference for Conor McGregor and Khabib's World Lightweight title fight took place in the Radio City Music Hall in New York on Thursday night and the Notorious was on top form. The Russian barely got a word in as the Crumlin native took over the stage Stateside. McGregor must have called Nurmagomedov every name under the sun, from a smelly sh*tebag to a lick*rse rat as the verbals only went one way. First of all, the former UFC champion took aim at the UFC and Dana White for not allowing the fans into the arena. Disappointed by the quiet atmosphere in front of him, McGregor bellowed out to the journalists present that this was a fan's event and that they should have been let in. Then his attention turned to the fight itself.

"Let's wrestle... you'll be wrestling my knuckle out of your orbital bone," he said. "I am very well coached...we are ready for this, we are ready for war...supreme confidence you are looking at here," he said.

Poor Khabib. After he got that off his chest, the Dubliner turned the press conference into a marketing campaign for his new whiskey Proper 12.

"I'm coming to take over the whiskey business...Jameson is toast, I'm coming for Jameson," he roared.

A true marketing genius, McGregor worried that he wouldn't be allowed bring a 70 cl of his Proper 12 whiskey into the arena, he pulled a naggin out of his shirt pocket like a young lad at a junior cert disco. He would go onto serve the drink to Dana White, before Khabib politely turned his offer down. "There's a gargle for you Dana!" All roads lead to the T-Mobile Arena on October 6.
