Conor McGregor Has His Say On Wilder Fury 2 Ahead Of The First Bell

Everybody seems to be talking about tonight’s big WBC heavyweight title fight in Vegas between Deontay Wilder and Tyson Fury.

Not just the boxing universe either.

A lot of the sports world are talking given the fact ESPN and Fox have pushed this fight excellently.

Moreover, even MMA star Conor McGregor has had his say on tonight’s boxing extravaganza:

It’s not often you’d see a UFC star, essentially the guy who is the UFC these days in McGregor, promote a boxing fight.

Perhaps a sign of what is to come from the UFC later in the year when they jump into the boxing world following Boston native Dana White voicing his interest in getting into our sport this year.

Bring it on.

The more the merrier I say.

As regards the ESPN plus app plug from McGregor, expect another gargantuan ton of sign ups for the service tonight.

Yes, tonight’s fight certainly has all the hype behind it.

Rightly so, it should live up to it.

Both men came in heavier than expected so I’d be looking for some very big bombs thrown right from the get go.
