<\/p>\nThe hype for the biggest fight of the century truly kicked off in showboating fashion last night as \u2018The Notorious\u2019 Conor McGregor and \u2018The Money\u2019 Mayweather met face to face in LA for their first of many press conferences.<\/p>\n
The two biggest names in the fighting world took turns upstaging each other in a battle of words in front of a sold out Staples Centre, which seemed to favour the undisputed UFC Featherweight Champion. \u2018Mystic Mac\u2019 started by showing off his fancy attire, an expensive navy suit with the words FUCK YOU stitched into the three piece, before turning his attention to Mayweather\u2019s outfit, \u201che\u2019s in a fucking tracksuit, he can\u2019t even afford a suit anymore! He\u2019s fucked\u201d. The Irish MMA record holder then went on to say he\u2019ll \u201cknock him out inside four rounds\u201d and boasted about the fact that in order for the fight to take place it must be under a limited set of rules, which according to Conor, doesn\u2019t make this a \u201ctrue fight\u201d. Conor states if it was a true fight, hinting at a battle in the octagon, it \u201cwouldn\u2019t even take one round\u201d to beat the boxing legend.<\/p>\n

Mayweather then took to the podium and gave his response to the cocky Irishman by getting the crowd to point to McGregor when asked to \u201cpoint to the easy work\u201d. He also responded to Conor\u2019s previous \u201ctrue fight\u201d comment by saying \u201cI don\u2019t give a fuck if it\u2019s a ring. I don\u2019t give a fuck if it\u2019s an Octagon. Put me in there and I\u2019m going to kick ass\u201d. Now I\u2019m not being biased here, because I love Conor McGregor, but I completely agree with the \u201cyou do<\/em> give a fuck if it\u2019s an octagon\u201d comment he made straight after Mayweather\u2019s statement, as we know from previous Mayweather fights, the 2015 Pacqiao fight for example, that rules and regulations must meet Mayweather\u2019s terms and conditions.<\/p>\n The smart mouthed MMA fighter had a witty response for most of Mayweather\u2019s comments. He responded to \u201cI\u2019m going to knock this bitch out\u201d with \u201cyou haven\u2019t knocked anyone out for 20 years\u201d, to which you can hear a majority of the crowd laughing at McGregor\u2019s words.<\/p>\n It didn\u2019t take long for the boxer to live up to his \u201cThe Money\u201d nickname as he pulled a \u00a3100 million dollar cheque out of a snake skin backpack and called himself a \u201c9 figure fighter\u201d. He followed up by showcasing his name being \u2018the A side\u2019 of the line-up and said Conor had to come to the boxing ring for a chance at disrupting his perfect fighting record. \u00a0Showboating and name calling aside, Mayweather quickly changed his tune by congratulating Conor, Dana White and the fighting world for bringing the two biggest names in combat sports together.<\/p>\n The pair then went face to face in a heated exchange of words, with Dana White famously standing between the two whilst the TMT team looked ready to brawl and the crowd loved it.<\/p>\n If last night\u2019s face to face didn\u2019t get you excited for the \u00a3500million mega-fight, then there\u2019s plenty more in store as the two take their press conference to Toronto, New York and finally the UK at Wembley Arena.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The hype for the biggest fight of the century truly kicked off in showboating fashion last night as \u2018The Notorious\u2019 Conor McGregor and \u2018The Money\u2019 Mayweather met face to face in LA for their first of many press conferences.
