IF HE DOESN'T GET LOVE IN 
BROOKLYN, HE CAN FORGET ABOUT 
LONDON.
IT'S A WRAP. 
>> WHAT'S CONOR GOT IN STORE?
>> I DON'T CARE WHAT EITHER ONE 
OF THEM GOT IN STORE AS LONG AS 
THEY DON'T PUT THEIR HANDS ON 
EACH OTHER.
LAST NIGHT GOT A LITTLE CRAZY IN
BROOKLYN.
AS LONG AS THAT DOESN'T HAPPEN, 
I'M GOOD. 
>> WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THE 
CRITICS OF THIS?
AND THERE HAVE BEEN SOME, 
OBVIOUSLY, THE PURISTS. 
>> YEP. 
>> WONDERING JUST WHY THIS FIGHT
IS TAKING PLACE AND MAYBE NOT 
THAT IMPRESSED BY SOME OF THE 
TRASH TALKING, THE WAY IT'S 
POTENTIALLY DEGENERATED.
HAVE THEY GOT A POINT?
>> NO, NOT AT ALL.
THE REALITY IS, IS WHAT'S GOING 
ON HERE IS JUST AS MUCH A PART 
OF THE FIGHT AS THE FIGHT 
ITSELF.
THE MENTAL WARFARE GAME -- THESE
ARE TWO OF THE BEST TO EVER DO 
IT.
FLOYD HAS YET TO MEET HIS MATCH 
PHYSICALLY OR VERBALLY UNTIL 
NOW.
WHAT THIS HAS BEEN ABOUT IS 
TRYING TO GET IN EACH OTHER'S 
HEADS, AND THAT'S WHY YOU'VE 
SEEN THIS THING ESCALATE FROM 
LOS ANGELES TO WHERE WE ARE NOW.
>> WHO'S WON THE SHOW SO FAR?
>> YOU KNOW, I THINK THEY'VE 
BOTH HAD THEIR MOMENTS.
YOU KNOW, THEY'VE BOTH HAD THEIR
MOMENTS.
IT'S FUNNY WHEN PEOPLE SAY, YOU 
KNOW, THAT THEY'VE TAKEN THIS 
THING TO THE -- THESE GUYS ARE 
GOING TO TRY TO KNOCK EACH OTHER
UNCONSCIOUS IN ABOUT A MONTH AND
A HALF, OKAY?
THE VERBAL WARFARE IS A PART OF 
THE FIGHT, TOO, BUT YOU KNOW, 
THIS IS A FIGHT.
THIS IS A FIGHT, NOT A CROQUE.
THIS IS PART OF THE DEAL. 
>> WHAT CHANCE DOES CONNER 
McGREGOR HAVE IN A BOXING RING 
AGAINST ONE OF THE GREATEST OF 
ALL TIME, IF NOT THE GREATEST?
>> IT'S A BOXING MATCH WITH 
BOXING RULES, BUT AT THE END OF 
THE DAY, IT'S A FIGHT.
AND FLOYD MAYWEATHER IS 41 YEARS
OLD.
IF THERE'S A KINK IN THAT ARMOR,
YOU COULD CALL IT THAT.
HE'S HAD TROUBLE WITH SOUTHPAWS.
CONOR McGREGOR IS 28 YEARS 
OLD -- 29 TODAY, IT'S ACTUALLY 
HIS BIRTHDAY.
AND HE IS A SOUTHPAW AND HE HITS
LIKE A TRUCK.
IF YOU THINK THAT CONOR McGREGOR
WON'T HIT HIM ONCE IN A 12-ROUND
FIGHT, THOSE PEOPLE ARE CRAZY.
AND WHEN McGREGOR HITS YOU, HE 
HURTS YOU, AND WHEN HE HURTS 
YOU, HE PUTS YOU AWAY. 
>> LAST WORD TO THE BOX OFFICE. 
>> THIS IS THE BIGGEST FIGHT IN 
HISTORY EVER.
THE ONES WHO SAY, YOU KNOW, WHY 
IS THIS FIGHT HAPPENING, DON'T 
WANT TO WATCH IT, DON'T WATCH 
IT.
WATCH SOMETHING ELSE.
[ LAUGHTER ]
>> IT'S A BIG CLIMB, ISN'T IT?
IS IT THE BIGGEST FIGHT IN 
HISTORY?
>> I THINK SO.
I THINK IT'S THE BIGGEST EVENT.
I THINK THERE HAVE BEEN MORE 
EXCITING FIGHTS ON THE CARD 
INVOLVING PEOPLE LIKE MIKE TYSON
AND MUHAMMAD ALI, OBVIOUSLY, THE
GREATEST.
BUT IN TERMS OF AN EVENT, YEAH, 
IT IS THE BIGGEST FIGHT.
JUST GOING BACK TO WHAT HE SAID 
THERE ABOUT SOUTHPAWS.
WELL, MANNY PACQUIAO WAS A 
SOUTHPAW MENTIONED WITH THE BEST
THERE, HE COULDN'T BEAT FLOYD 
MAYWEATHER.
ORTIZ, I COULD GO ON AND ON.
HE'S BEAT ALL THESE SOUTHPAWS.
OCCASIONALLY HAS THERE BEEN A 
BIT OF TROUBLE?
YEAH, OKAY.
THERE'S A SAYING YOU CAN'T 
ALWAYS AVOID RAIN AND JUDGE ALL 
THE SPOTS.
IT'S LIKE A RAINSTORM AND YOU 
ARE GOING TO GET PUNCHES, BUT 
HE'S BEATEN EVERYONE IN EVERY 
STYLE.
THAT'S PERHAPS WHAT MAKES HIM SO
GOOD. 
>> AND MAYWEATHER SAID HE'S 
BROUGHT IN AN MMA GUY TO HELP 
HIM OUT.
HE IS A SOUTHPAW LIKE McGREGOR.
BOXING FANS IN BRITAIN KNOW 
REALLY WELL, ABOUT COMING ON 
BOARD AND TRYING TO GIVE HIM 
TACTICAL ADVICE AND TAPPING INTO
THAT BOXING BRAIN.
HE'S GOING TO NEED THAT, RIGHT?
>> WELL, YOU SAY BOXING BRAIN, 
AND YOU SAY IT IN A WAY THAT 
PROBABLY USING A MORE 
INTELLIGENT APPROACH, IT MAY BE 
LAYING OFF A LITTLE BIT, BUT I'M
NOT SO SURE.
WITH MAYWEATHER, I THINK THE 
BIGGEST PROBLEM FOR McGREGOR IS 
GOING TO BE HE'S GOING TO GET 
FRUSTRATED BECAUSE MAYWEATHER 
ALWAYS SEEMS TO BOX WELL AT 
DISTANCE, ON THE OUTSIDE, 
PICKING HIS PUNCHES, MOVING IN 
WITH HIS FEET, MOVING OUT, AND 
HE MAKES YOU MISS, AND THAT CAN 
MAKE YOU VERY FRUSTRATED AND 
ANGRY.
AND THEN HE SETS THE TRAP, 
BECAUSE THE MORE ANGRY YOU GET, 
THE MORE YOU COME FORWARD AND 
YOU'RE TRYING TO SWING AND 
PUNCH, AND THEN THAT FLAMES THE 
TRAP THAT HE SET AND HE JUST 
PICKS YOU UP.
SO, I THINK THE BIGGEST PROBLEM 
FOR CONOR McGREGOR IS GOING TO 
BE CONTROLLING THE EMOTIONS.
IF HE GETS TOO AGGRESSIVE AND 
GOES AFTER MAYWEATHER, THAT'S 
WHAT MAYWEATHER WANTS.
SO MAYBE YOU'RE RIGHT, HE HAS 
GOT TO BOX INTELLIGENTLY, BUT 
THERE'S BEEN MANY A BOXER, 
ALL-TIME GREATS, PAN FOR PAN 
BOXERS THAT CAN'T LAY A GLOVE ON
THIS FELLOW.
YEAH, HE'S GOT A CHANCE BECAUSE 
MAYWEATHER'S NOW 40 YEARS OF 
AGE, IS NOT GETTING ANY YOUNGER,
HAS BEEN OUT OF THE RING, BUT HE
IS STILL HARD FOR SOMEONE WHO'S 
NOT BOXED IN A 12-ROUND CONTEST 
BEFORE. 
>> IT'S CAPTURED THE IMAGINATION
OF FIGHT FANS EVERYWHERE, 
UNITING COMBAT SPORTS.
AND AS WE SAID, THIS IS THE 
FOURTH STOP ON WHAT HAS BEEN A 
WHIRLWIND WORLD TOUR.
IT WILL BE THE LAST ONE, TOO.
IT ALL STARTED ON TUESDAY NIGHT 
IN LOS ANGELES.
>> HARD WORK!
HARD WORK!
HARD WORK!
HARD WORK!
[ INAUDIBLE CROWD RESPONSE ]
>> I STILL GOT IT.
>> 20,000 PEOPLE.
IT'S MIND-BLOWING.
I'M ABSOLUTELY HONORED TO BE 
HERE BEFORE YOU TO GIVE YOU THIS
GREAT SPECTACLE.
AND SOMEBODY'S OLD HAS GOT TO 
GO.
>> YOU LIGHT THEM UP AND I KNOCK
THEM DOWN LIKE BOWLING PINS!
AND AUGUST 26th, I'M GOING TO 
KNOCK THIS [ BLEEP ] OUT, TOO!
>> YEAH, RIGHT!
AS FAR AS THE FIGHT, HE WILL BE 
UNCONSCIOUS INSIDE FOUR ROUNDS.
THE MOVEMENT, THE POWER, THE 
FEROCIOUSNESS.
HE'S NOT EXPERIENCED THIS.
>> AND THE TWO BIGGEST NAMES IN 
COMBAT SPORTS DID THIS.
SO I DIDN'T DO THIS BY MYSELF.
THIS MAN PLAYED A MAJOR PART IN 
THIS FIGHT, BUT AUGUST 26th, 
THAT'S YOUR [ BLEEP ].
THAT'S YOUR [ BLEEP ].
>> BUT HE CROSSED OVER INTO OUR 
WORLD.
FLOYD HAS A PROBLEM BUT DOESN'T 
WANT TO COME OVER AND DEAL WITH 
IT.
HE WANTS ME TO COME OVER TO HIS 
SIDE.
THAT'S NO PROBLEM.
I'LL DO THAT.
THAT'S CONFIDENCE.
>> Announcer: LADIES AND 
GENTLEMEN, IT'S MAYWEATHER 
VERSUS McGREGOR, SATURDAY, 
AUGUST 26th, AT THE MGM T-MOBILE
ARENA ON SHOWTIME PAY-PER-VIEW!
THIS AFTERNOON WAS INDEED THE 
VERY FIRST TIME THESE TWO HAVE 
MET, THE VERY FIRST TIME THEY 
ARE GOING FACE-TO-FACE.
YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS THE 
ACTION, ONCE AGAIN, SATURDAY, 
AUGUST 26th, MGM T-MOBILE ARENA 
LAS VEGAS, SHOWTIME 
PAY-PER-VIEW.
>> WELL, I THINK WE FOUND OUT ON
THIS RECENT TOUR THAT IF HIS 
HANDS ARE AS QUICK AS HIS WIT, 
THEN FLOYD MAYWEATHER JR. IS 
GOING TO BE IN TROUBLE FROM 
CONOR McGREGOR. 
>> I THINK McGREGOR'S PLAYED A 
GREAT PART, HASN'T HE, YOU KNOW,
IN THE BUILD-UP TO THESE PRESS 
CONFERENCES.
HE'S REALLY HELD HIS OWN, AND I 
THINK HE'S GOT TO MAY WEATHER 
OCCASIONALLY UNDER HIS SKIN.
MAYWEATHER'S SEEN IT ALL BEFORE,
BUT STILL A LITTLE JARRED ABOUT 
I THINK THE ONE-TOUCH CONFERENCE
HE'S TALKED ABOUT, HE'S A 
40-YEAR-OLD AND SHOULD DRESS 
LIKE A 40-YEAR-OLD.
AND HE BROUGHT A SCHOOL BAG ON 
TO THE STAGE.
I DON'T THINK HE'S TOOK TOO 
KINDLY TO THOSE WORDS.
SO McGREGOR HAS GOTTEN UNDER HIS
SKIN.
HE'S PLAYED THE PART WELL 
INDEED.
AND FROM WHAT I'VE SEEN TONIGHT,
THERE ARE A LOT OF McGREGOR FANS
AND I THINK THEY OUTWEIGH THE 
MAYWEATHER FANS.
I THINK THE MAJORITY OF THE 
SUPPORT I'VE SEEN, THEY'RE ALL 
FOR McGREGOR. 
>> THERE WERE 11,000 PEOPLE 
TUESDAY NIGHT AT THE STAPLES 
CENTER IN LOS ANGELES.
CONOR McGREGOR, WHO'S GOT A 
REPUTATION TO BE AN EXPERT IN 
HYPING A FIGHT, THE OPEN MIKE 
COMING ACROSS ULTRA OFFENSIVE.
HE'S VERY QUICK WITTED, NOTHING 
NEW TO HIM EITHER.
HE WAS EXPECTED TO SCORE FLOYD 
MAYWEATHER JR. THAT NIGHT, BUT 
THE CHAMP HELD HIS OWN.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT IN TORONTO WAS A
LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT.
McGREGOR, WHO HAD COMPLAINED 
SHOWTIME SHUT OFF HIS MIKE THE 
PREVIOUS NIGHT, HE BROUGHT HIS 
OWN MIKE WITH HIM AND WAS 
HITTING BACK VERBALLY WHENEVER 
MAYWEATHER OPENED HIS MOUTH, 
EVEN THE STUNTS MAYWEATHER WAS 
TRYING YOU MENTIONED DIDN'T COME
OFF.
HE PUT ON AN IRISH AND HE 
RIDICULED THE CHAP FOR NOT 
HAVING ANY LEFT.
LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT IT.
♪
>> LOOK AT ME.
♪ MONEY, MONEY, MONEY, MONEY ♪
>> I'M NOT GETTING OFF THIS 
MIKE!
I WANT HIM TO COME AND TAKE THIS
MIKE OFF ME!
OTHERWISE, I'M TAKING OVER THIS 
WHOLE [ MUTED ]!
WE'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT BEING AT
THE TOP ONE YEAR, TWO YEARS, 
THREE YEARS, FOUR YEARS!
21 YEARS!
ONE SHOT IS ALL IT TAKES ME.
CHECK THE FACTS.
I BOUNCE HEADS OFF THE CANVAS 
AND DRIBBLE THE [ MUTED ].
HE'S NEVER EVEN FOUGHT A DAY IN 
HIS LIFE!
HE'S A RUNNER!
HE'S BOXING [ MUTED ].
>> IF YOU BELIEVE IN YOURSELF 
LIKE YOU SAY YOU BELIEVE IN 
YOURSELF, BET YOUR WHOLE FIGHT 
CHECK YOU [ MUTED ].
>> NO [ MUTED ] PROBLEM.
SEND THE CONTRACT HERE.
IT'S DONE.
>> I DON'T QUIT!
I DON'T FOLD UNDER PRESSURE!
I'M THE BEST, AND I KNOW I'M THE
BEST.
[ MUTED ] YOU KNOW I'M THE BEST!
DON'T YOU EVER TELL ME [ MUTED ]
ABOUT A [ MUTED ] $3 MILLION 
FIGHTER!
>> NOT NO MORE!
YEAH.
JUST GETTING HEATED UP.
YOU'RE 40 YEARS OF AGE.
DRESS YOUR [ MUTED ] AGE!
CARRYING A SCHOOL BAG ON STAGE.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH A SCHOOL
BAG ON STAGE?
YOU CAN'T EVEN READ!
OH, AND I LOVE WHAT I GOT ON.
I'M WEARING THAT TORONTO FLAG!
I LOOK GOOD IN THAT TORONTO 
GEAR!
TORONTO, I LOVE YOU ALL!
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!
IT'S AN HONOR TO COME HERE.
IT'S A [ MUTED ] HONOR.
I LOVE EACH AND EVERY ONE OF 
YOU. 
>> TALKING ABOUT YOU GOT PRIDE 
IN YOU, TALK BEING YOU ARE 
KILLERS.
REAL KILLERS DON'T QUIT!
REAL KILLERS DON'T QUIT!
>> YOU'VE NEVER EVEN -- YOU 
DON'T EVEN KNOW NOTHING ABOUT 
TRUE FIGHTING.
YOU'VE NEVER BEEN IN THERE.
YOU'RE AGAINST LITTLE BOXERS 
AFRAID.
YOU'RE AGAINST A DIFFERENT 
ANIMAL HERE, FLOYD.
>> SHUT THE [ MUTED ] UP. 
>> SHUT YOUR MOUTH.
SHUT YOUR MOUTH.
THEY WANT YOU OFF THIS STAGE. 
>> YOU HAD YOUR TURN!
SICK OF HEARING FROM YOU. 
>> DANA WHITE, YOU'RE THE BOSS!
DANA WHITE, YOU FLY!
DANA WHITE, ME AND YOU GOT 
MONEY.
WE KNOW WHO GOT THE MONEY!
WE DON'T GOTTA WEAR SUITS!
THE REAL MEN THAT GOT MONEY 
DON'T GOTTA WEAR SUITS!
>> HEY, YOU GOT THE WORLD 
WATCHING!
McGREGOR/MAYWEATHER FACE OFF!
>> Announcer: LADIES AND 
GENTLEMEN, THERE YOU SEE, AUGUST
26th, LIVE ON SHOWTIME 
PAY-PER-VIEW, FLOYD "MONEY" 
MAYWEATHER, AND THE NOTORIOUS 
CONOR McGREGOR, LIVE ON SHOWTIME
PAY-PER-VIEW!
TORONTO, THE SECOND STOP ON THE 
MAYWEATHER/McGREGOR WORLD TOUR!
IT IS MAYWEATHER/McGREGOR LIVE 
ON SHOWTIME PAY-PER-VIEW FROM 
LAS VEGAS, AUGUST 26th.
>> THEY HAD TO MOVE THAT TO A 
BIGGER VENUE BECAUSE THEY 
COULDN'T GET ENOUGH PEOPLE 
INSIDE THE ORIGINAL VENUE.
17,000 PEOPLE TURNED UP IN 
TORONTO.
AND NOTICE, BY THE WAY, THAT 
CONOR McGREGOR SAID, NO PROBLEM 
ABOUT THE IDEA OF BETTING HIS 
CHECK, BUT HE DIDN'T LOOK TOO 
COMFORTABLE ABOUT IT, AND I 
DON'T THINK EITHER ARE BETTING 
ANYTHING.
THEY'RE TAKING THEIR MONEY. 
>> DIDN'T TAKE IT VERY WELL, DID
HE?
BUT FAIR PLAY.
HE SAID SEND THAT OVER THE 
CONTACT, NO PROBLEM, BUT HE JUST
LEFT IT AT THAT, I THINK HOPING 
THAT EVERYTHING SETTLED DOWN A 
LITTLE BIT, BUT IT WAS 
INTERESTING THERE.
THE INSULTS ARE GOING IN.
AND I DON'T THINK YOU CAN 
COMPARE -- WHEN FLOYD TALKED 
ABOUT HIS OPPONENT, CONOR 
McGREGOR, QUITTED CERTAIN 
FIGHTS, HE CAN'T COMPARE A 
DEFEAT IN MMA TO A DEFEAT OR 
LOSS IN BOXING.
>> YOU KNOW MAYWEATHER'S NEVER 
LOST. 
>> BUT THEY'RE TWO TOTALLY 
DIFFERENT DISCIPLINES AT THE END
OF THE DAY. 
>> YEAH. 
>> AND THAT'S WHY A LOT OF 
PEOPLE WON'T BUY INTO THAT. 
>> YEAH, HE HAS LOST FIGHTS, NO 
DOUBT ABOUT THAT, AND YOU WILL 
HEAR MAYWEATHER REFER TO THE 
TAP-OUTS AS SUBMISSIONS, 
ALTHOUGH HE DID COME BACK AND 
BEAT HIM IN THE REMATCH.
JOSEPH DUFFY SEVEN YEARS AGO IN 
A CAGE, ATTEMPTS TO TAKE HIM 
AWAY, BUT 21 WINS, 18 BY 
KNOCKOUT.
AND UNTIL YOU SAY THIS IS A 
SPORT WHERE YOU CAN KICK, CONOR 
McGREGOR HAS WON 16 OF THOSE 
FIGHTS WITH PUNCHES.
HE HAS POWER, AND MAYWEATHER 
KNOWS THAT HE'S GOT TO BE 
CONCERNED ABOUT THAT. 
>> YEAH, DEFINITELY I'VE WATCHED
A LITTLE BIT OF CONOR McGREGOR.
I'M NOT A MASSIVE MMA FAN, I 
HAVE TO SAY.
I'M A BOXING FAN, OBVIOUSLY, BUT
I HAVE WATCHED CONOR McGREGOR 
BOX A FEW TIMES IN THESE MMA 
FIGHTS AND HIS BOXING SKILLS ARE
QUITE DECENT, TO BE QUITE 
UNDERSTOOD.
HAS HE GOOD POWER.
AND ALTHOUGH HE'S REGARDED A 
VERY AGGRESSIVE FIRE, WHEN HE'S 
FIGHTING, HE MAKES HIS OPPONENTS
MISS AND THEN KNOCKS THEM OUT 
WITH GOOD SHOTS, SO HIS BOXING 
SKILLS ARE QUITE DECENT.
OBVIOUSLY, HE WOULD HAVE BEEN IN
THE BOXING GYM IN THE BUILD-UP 
TO THIS ONE, LOADS OF SPARRING 
PARTNERS.
I SHOULD IMAGINE, THEY'RE VERY 
FAST AND QUICK ON THEIR FEET 
BECAUSE YOU'VE GOT TO TRY AND 
PREPARE FOR THE WORLD'S BEST IN 
TERMS OF MAYWEATHER, IN TERMS OF
THE SPEED OF MOVEMENT, BECAUSE 
IT IS GOING TO BE VERY, VERY 
DIFFICULT.
BUT ALL IN ALL, CONNOR KOR McGRS
BOXING SKILLS AREN'T BAD. 
>> AND MAYWEATHER IS TALKING TO 
OUR REPORTER.
>> WHAT'S IT LIKE TO BE HERE?
>> IT'S ALWAYS GREAT, ESPECIALLY
WITH THE FIGHT TOUR.
TRUE, DIE-HARD FIGHT FANS. 
>> SUM UP THE TOUR SO FAR FOR 
YOU.
WHAT HAVE YOU SEEN IN HIS EYES?
WHAT HAVE YOU MADE OF HIM AND 
WHAT DO YOU HOPE TO MAKE IN 
TERMS OF AN IMPRESSION YOURSELF?
>> THE TOUR HAS BEEN VERY 
INTERESTING, A LOT OF 
ENTERTAINMENT.
THE FANS HAVE BEEN LOVING THE 
TOUR.
WE'VE HAD GOOD FEEDBACK.
WE'RE GETTING GREAT FEEDBACK, SO
IT'S VERY EXCITING. 
>> WHAT DO YOU SEE WHEN YOU LOOK
INTO HIS EYES?
>> A FIGHTER, A WARRIOR, A GUY 
WHO WANTS TO WIN.
>> WHAT CHANCE HAS HE GOT?
COME ON, BE HONEST.
BOXING AFICIONADOS, WORKING WITH
CHRIS EUBANKS, THE SHOWMAN.
MOST OF THE GUYS THINK NO CHANCE
FOR AN MMA FIGHTER AGAINST A MAN
OF YOUR CLASS. 
>> I APPRECIATE IT, BUT I'M A 
LOT OLDER NOW 37 CONOR 
McGREGOR'S IN HIS 20s.
I'M IN MY 40s.
HE HAS A LONGER REACH.
HE'S TALLER.
AND ALSO, HE'S ACTIVE AND I'M 
INACTIVE, SO THAT PLAYS A MAJOR 
KEY. 
>> YOU'RE PUTTING A LOT ON THE 
LINE HERE, AREN'T YOU?
>> YES. 
>> LEGACY?
>> UM -- 
>> REPUTATION?
>> EVERYTHING, BUT I SIGNED UP 
FOR THIS.
>> AND JUST FINALLY, CHRIS 
EUBANK JR., YOU KNOW HE TRAINED 
WITH YOUR FATHER, FLOYD 
MAYWEATHER SR.
CHRIS UBANK JR. FIGHTS TOMORROW 
NIGHT -- 
>> WELL, I'M NOT WITH JUNIOR.
YOU KEEP SAYING SENIOR JUNIOR.
MY DAD IS FLOYD MAYWEATHER. 
>> BUT CHRIS EUBANK JR. TRAINED 
WITH YOUR FATHER.
TOMORROW NIGHT AS HE FIGHTS 
ARTHUR ABRAHAM, WHO WINS?
ON THE BOX OFFICE, BY THE WAY, 
WHO WINS?
>> IT'S A GOOD MATCHUP.
IT'S A REAL GOOD MATCHUP.
ARTHUR WAS A WORLD CHAMPION, IF 
I'M NOT MISTAKEN. 
>> CORRECT. 
>> AND CHRIS UBANK JR. IS MAKING
A LOT OF NOISE.
>> WHO WINS?
>> I CAN'T SAY.
I DON'T REALLY KNOW. 
>> AND WHO WINS AUGUST -- WELL, 
I KNOW WHO YOU'RE GOING TO SAY, 
WHO WINS ON AUGUST 26th. 
>> AUGUST 26th -- 
>> BUT GIVE US A PREDICTION HOW 
IF ENDS. 
>> AUGUST 26th, I'M VERY 
EXCITED.
I WANT ALL THE FANS AROUND THE 
WORLD, ESPECIALLY MY UK FANS, TO
TUNE IN TO WATCH THIS EVENT. 
>> AND WHAT HAVE YOU GOT FOR US 
TONIGHT?
>> OH, MAN!
IT'S GOING TO BE EXCITING.
I'M PRETTY SURE.
IT'S ALWAYS EXCITING WITH CONOR 
McGREGOR. 
>> GOT HIM A BIRTHDAY PRESENT?
[ LAUGHTER ]
>> THANK YOU!
>> WHAT A WAY TO SEE.
THAT WAS HIM BEING HUMBLED, BY 
THE WAY, WITH THOSE 
DIAMOND-ENCRUSTED EARBUDS IN.
TONIGHT YOU'RE GOING TO SEE THE 
BRASH AND THE FLASH FLOYD 
MAYWEATHER JR.
HE SAID HE'S GOT SOMETHING 
SPECIAL UP HIS SLEEVE TONIGHT IN
LONDON FOR CONOR McGREGOR, BUT 
BEHIND THE SCENES, HE ACTUALLY 
CAN BE AT TIMES A VERY HUMBLE 
GUY.
LET'S GO RINGSIDE NOW BECAUSE 
GABRIEL'S MOVED BACK THERE AND 
HE'S TALKING WITH TOMORROW 
NIGHT'S BIG STAR, CHRIS 
UBANK JR.
>> YEAH, GREAT TO HAVE CHRIS 
EUBANK JR. WITH US, SO CLOSE TO 
HIS FIGHT.
BUT CHRIS, YOU COULDN'T MISS 
THIS, COULD YOU?
YOU HAD TO BE HERE.
>> IT IS HARD TO BELIEVE THAT 
THIS IS JUST A PRESS CONFERENCE.
>> AND A SHOW.
>> AND A SHOW, BUT IT IS A PRESS
CONFERENCE IN REALITY, AND YOU 
KNOW, YOU CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHAT 
FIGHT NIGHT'S GOING TO BE, WHEN 
THIS IS THE PRESS CONFERENCE, 
WHEN THERE'S NO PUNCHES THROWN 
TONIGHT.
IT'S GREAT.
THIS IS ENTERTAINMENT AT ITS 
FINEST. 
>> I KNOW IN BETWEEN YOUR FINAL 
BITS OF TRAINING AND SPARRING, 
YOU'VE BEEN WATCHING MAYWEATHER 
AND McGREGOR ON THE TOUR SO FAR.
WHAT HAVE YOU MADE OF IT?
WHAT'S BEEN YOUR TAKE ON THE 
TALKING ON STAGE AND IN NORTH 
AMERICA?
>> YOU KNOW, A LOT OF PEOPLE 
SEEM TO THINK THAT CONOR'S WON 
THE LAST COUPLE.
I THOUGHT FLOYD MIGHT HAVE GOT 
THE FIRST ONE, BUT A LOT OF 
THESE CROWDS ARE PRO-CONOR 
CROWDS, SO IT'S HARD FOR FLOYD 
TO KIND OF GET ONE UP ON CONOR. 
>> DO YOU SENSE THAT AGAIN 
TONIGHT AS WELL?
IT FEELS LIKE AN AWFUL LOT OF 
THE ANGLO IRISH POPULATION HAS 
MADE IT HERE. 
>> YEP, THERE'S A LOT OF IRISH, 
THERE'S A LOT OF CONOR 
SUPPORTERS HERE.
THERE'S A LOT OF MAYWEATHER 
SUPPORTERS, BUT IT'S A DIFFERENT
TYPE OF SUPPORT.
I THINK WITH CONOR, HE'S KIND OF
THE GUY NEXT DOOR WHO MADE IT, 
YOU KNOW?
SO PEOPLE RELATE MORE TO CONOR.
>> AND WITH FLOYD?
>> WITH FLOYD, HE'S JUST, YOU 
KNOW, HE'S THE SUPERSTAR.
HE'S THE BEST BOXER IN THE 
WORLD, SO IT'S KIND OF, YOU 
KNOW, HE'S GOT THE CARS, THE 
HOUSES, THE MONEY.
IT'S HARD TO RELATE TO SOMEONE 
LIKE THAT.
BUT AT THE SAME TIME, HE IS ONE 
OF THE BEST, IF NOT THE BEST.
AND SO, YOU DON'T REALLY NEED TO
RELATE TO THAT.
YOU JUST UNDERSTAND HIS SKILL 
AND HIS UNDERSTANDING OF THE 
SPORT, AND THAT'S WHAT GETS HIM 
HIS FANS. 
>> IT WAS OBVIOUS I THINK IN THE
INTERVIEW THAT I DID WITH FLOYD 
A FEW MINUTES AGO THAT HE'S 
OBVIOUSLY BUILDING JEOPARDY INTO
THE FIGHT.
HE'S NOT GOING TO SAY I'M GOING 
TO WIN THIS IN ONE ROUND, WHICH 
MANY BOXING AFICIONADOS BELIEVE 
WILL HAPPEN.
WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THAT, AND 
GENUINELY, WHAT CHANCE CONOR 
McGREGOR?
>> I THINK FLOYD'S TELLING THE 
TRUTH.
I DON'T THINK ANYTHING FLOYD 
SAYS IS, YOU KNOW, JUST FOR HYPE
OR JUST TO SAY IT.
I MEAN, IF HE'S SAYING HE'S 
HAVING A TOUGH TRAINING, IF HE'S
SAYING THAT THIS IS HIS LAST 
FIGHT, THEN THAT'S PROBABLY -- 
THAT PROBABLY IS THE CASE.
AND YOU'RE RIGHT, IT IS ONLY ONE
PUNCH.
CONOR HAS A PUNCHER'S CHANCE.
FLOYD IS AT AGE NOW WHERE, YOU 
KNOW, HE MIGHT GET HIT A LITTLE 
BIT MORE THAN HE DID BACK IN THE
EARLY DAYS OF HIS CAREER, SO 
THERE IS JEOPARDY.
THIS IS BOXING.
THIS IS WHAT MAKES IT SO SEXY, 
ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN. 
>> YEAH, I MEAN, CLEARLY, THERE 
ARE ISSUES WITH FLOYD MAYWEATHER
IN TERMS OF MAYBE PAYING THE ODD
BILL.
HE'S BEEN SORT OF PRETTY CLEAR 
ABOUT THAT.
BUT WHY PUT SO MUCH ON THE LINE,
APART FROM THAT?
WHY RISK THE LEGACY?
THAT'S WHAT HE'S DOING, ISN'T 
IT, IN BOXING TERMS?
>> EVERY FIGHT IS A RISK.
EVERY TIME HE STEPS INTO THE 
RING, HE'S RISKING HIS LEGACY, 
SO THAT'S NOT AN EXCUSE NOT TO 
FIGHT.
AND IF YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT 
RISK-REWARD, THE RISK-REWARD 
FACTOR, YOU KNOW, HE'S MAKING 
HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS.
>> ABSOLUTELY, AND THAT 
OBVIOUSLY IS A KEY FACTOR, BUT 
YOU ALSO THINK IT'S ALMOST LIKE,
IF I DIDN'T TAKE THIS FIGHT, I'D
REGRET IT?
IT'S AN OPPORTUNITY WHICH WILL 
NEVER COME ALONG AGAIN?
THERE'S AN ELEMENT OF PRIDE?
>> AND EVERYONE'S TALKING ABOUT 
THE MONEY, BUT IT'S NOT JUST 
ABOUT THE MONEY.
IT IS THE FACT THAT THE WORLD 
WANTS TO SEE THIS FIGHT, AND 
HE'S GIVEN THE WORLD WHAT IT 
WANTS, AND YOU CAN ONLY RESPECT 
THAT. 
>> 24 HOURS' TIME, WE'LL BE 
BEHIND THE SCENES IN ONE OF THE 
DRESSING ROOMS HERE, PREPARING 
FOR THE FIGHT OF YOUR LIFE SO 
FAR, YOUR FIRST DEFENSE OF THE 
IBO TITLE.
SOME OF YOUR PREPARATIONS, IT'S 
BEEN A PLEASURE TO SPEND TIME 
WITH YOU OVER THE LAST SEVERAL 
WEEKS, BUT SUM UP YOUR 
PREPARATION AND EXACTLY WHAT YOU
NEED TO SHOW TOMORROW NIGHT. 
>> I'M GOING TO MAKE A 
STATEMENT.
HE'S NEVER BEEN STOPPED BEFORE 
IN HIS CAREER.
MY GOAL IS TO GO IN THERE AND 
STOP THE UNSTOPPABLE MAN.
I DON'T WANT HIM TO SEE THE 
FINAL BELL.
I'M NOT IN THERE TO STEAL POINTS
AND DANCE AROUND AND MAKE THE 
FIGHT LOOK PRETTY.
I WANT TO WIN IN DEVASTATING 
FASHION, AND I BELIEVE WITH THE 
TRAINING, WITH THE TECHNIQUES I 
HAVE, I'M FULLY CAPABLE OF DOING
SO. 
>> IT'S OBVIOUSLY, ACTUALLY A 
FEW HOURS AGO, ARTHUR ABRAHAM 
WAS PRETTY MUCH WHERE YOU ARE, 
WEIGHING IN FOR A FINAL TIME, 
FIVE MINUTES BEFORE THE 
DEADLINE, TO TRY TO COME IN AT 
THE CORRECT WEIGHT.
HE HAS STRUGGLED BADLY.
WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF ALL THAT?
>> I'M NOT FOCUSED ON HIS 
WEIGHT, YOU KNOW.
THAT'S HIS JOURNEY.
HE'S THE NATURALLY BIGGER GUY, 
SO HE HAD TO SHED A FEW EXTRA 
POUNDS AND I GUESS HE WAS 
UNPROFESSIONAL IN HIS 
PREPARATION IN DOING THAT. 
>> WHICH CLEARLY FAVORS YOU, 
WHICH SUGGESTS IT'S GOING TO BE 
EASIER FOR YOU. 
>> I'M NOT SAYING THAT.
I'M NOT LOOKING INTO THAT.
I'M NOT GOING INTO THAT WITH 
THAT MIND-SET.
THIS MAN IS JUST AS DANGEROUS TO
ME AS HE WOULD HAVE BEEN IF HE 
HAD MADE THE WEIGHT PERFECTLY.
HE'S FLOWN IN HERE FROM GERMANY,
AND YOU KNOW, HE'S NOT COMING IN
TO LAY DOWN.
HE'S NOT COMING IN HERE TO GIVE 
UP EASILY.
HE'S GOING TO GO IN THERE AND 
TRY TO KNOCK MY HEAD OFF, WHICH 
IS WHAT HE DOES WITH EVERY 
FIGHTER, AND I'M FULLY PREPARED 
TO THAT, AND I KNOW I'VE GOT A 
CHANCE.
I KNOW I CAN TAKE A PUNCH.
THAT'S WHY I'VE GOT MY 
CONFIDENCE.
I KNOW HE'S GOING TO BE RELYING 
SOLELY ON POWER.
THAT'S NOT ENOUGH TO BEAT A MAN 
LIKE ME. 
>> AND THERE IS A CONNECTION TO 
THE MAYWEATHER CAMP, OF COURSE, 
WITH YOU.
YOU TRAINED WITH MAYWEATHER 
SENIOR.
WE MENTIONED THAT TO FLOYD A FEW
MINUTES AGO.
TAKE US BACK TO THAT TIME AND 
HOPING TO GET A WORD OR TWO WITH
FLOYD OVER THE COURSE OF THE 
NEXT FEW HOURS, ARE YOU?
>> YEAH, I MEAN, I'VE TRAINED ON
AND OFF WITH FLOYD SENIOR AND 
FLOYD JUNIOR OVER THE LAST FEW 
YEARS.
AND OBVIOUSLY, YOU KNOW, YOU 
LEARN A LOT.
YOU SEE A LOT, YOU LEARN A LOT.
WHEN YOU'RE IN THAT ENVIRONMENT 
OF EXCELLENCE IN TERMS OF 
BOXING, YOU KNOW, IT RUBS OFF ON
YOU.
YOU KNOW, YOU PICK UP THINGS.
AND I WOULD BEST TO HAVE THE 
OPPORTUNITY TO BE IN LAS VEGAS 
AND BE AROUND THESE GUYS OVER 
THE YEARS AND THAT'S WHERE I GET
MY -- YOU KNOW, THAT'S WHERE I 
GET MY SPECIAL SAUCE FROM.
>> SO, WHO WINS THAT FIGHT AND 
HOW DOES IT END?
>> WITH CONOR AND FLOYD?
>> CORRECT.
>> YOU KNOW, NEVER UNDERESTIMATE
THE WILL OF AN IRISHMAN.
>> AS WAS PROVED IN YOUR 
FATHER'S CAREER IN A CERTAIN 
MR. STEVE COLLINS. 
>> THERE YOU GO.
BUT FLOYD'S A HELL OF A 
DEFENSIVE FIGHTER.
TONS MORE EXPERIENCED THAN 
CONOR.
SO, FOR CONOR TO PULL SOMETHING 
LIKE THIS OFF IS GOING TO BE 
MEGA, IT'S GOING TO BE TOUGH, 
BUT YOU KNOW, IF ANYONE CAN DO 
IT, I MEAN, EVERY FIGHTER'S 
TRIED TO BEAT FLOYD AND THEY 
HAVEN'T, SO MAYBE IT'S GOING TO 
TAKE ANOTHER MMA GUY TO DO IT, 
BECAUSE NOTHING ELSE HAS WORKED.
SO, I CAN'T WAIT. 
>> WE CAN'T WAIT EITHER FOR YOUR
FIGHT TOMORROW NIGHT, AND OF 
COURSE, WE SPENT SOME TIME WITH 
CHRIS IN THE LAST COUPLE WEEKS 
AND THE FATHER, THE EUBANKSES ON
ITV TONIGHT, A DOCUMENTARY ABOUT
THE TWO OF THEM.
YOU CAN WATCH THAT.
AND WE CONTINUE TO WAIT RINGSIDE
FOR THE ENTRANCE OF McGREGOR AND
MAYWEATHER.
>> AND WE'RE EXPECTING THAT 
ENTRANCE IN AROUND ABOUT 15-20 
MINUTES' TIME, ALTHOUGH THINGS 
ARE FLUID, THINGS CAN CHANGE.
CHRIS EUBANK WEIGHED IN RIGHT ON
THE MONEY, 11 STONE 13.
THE SAME CAN'T BE SAID FOR HIS 
OPPONENT AS GABRIEL WAS SAYING.
HE NEEDED THREE GOES TO MAKE 
WEIGHT AND AN EXTRA THREE HOURS.
WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THAT?
>> THAT'S A HARD QUESTION TO BE 
HONEST.
BECAUSE I REMEMBER STEVE 
COLLINS, THE GREAT IRISH FIGHTER
HE WAS AT MIDLAND, SUPERMIDLAND,
HE USED TO -- ESPECIALLY AT 
MIDDLE -- STRUGGLE TO MAKE THE 
WEIGHT, BUT HE USED TO MAKE IT 
AND THEN WIN WORLD TITLE FIGHTS 
NO PROBLEM.
SO, SOME FIGHTERS ARE TIGHT ON 
THE ONE WEIGHT, YES, BUT IT'S 
NOT EXACTLY AN ADVANTAGE TO 
EUBANK.
AND I THINK THAT WON'T BE A 
PROBLEM, BECAUSE WE KNOW HE 
WON'T GET THE STRENGTH OUT OF 
HIM, NO WAY. 
>> THEY'RE BILLED TOMORROW 
NIGHT.
THE REST OF THE CARD IS 
SCROLLING ACROSS THE BOTTOM OF 
YOUR SCREEN RIGHT NOW.
FOR CHRIS EUBANK JR., IS THIS 
HIS BIGGEST FIGHT SINCE LOSING 
TO BILLY JOE SAUNDERS?
>> I THINK IT IS HIS BIGGEST 
FIGHT, IT'S HIS FIRST DEFENSE, 
OBVIOUSLY, AND I WAS IMPRESSED 
WITH WHAT HE SAID THERE, BECAUSE
HE DOES WANT TO MAKE A 
STATEMENT.
AND WHAT HE WANTS -- MOST PEOPLE
IN BOXING WOULD SAY THAT CHRIS 
EUBANK JR. IS THE FAVORITE 
TOMORROW NIGHT, BUT IT'S HOW HE 
WINS THAT IS THE BIG QUESTION.
AGAIN, HE'S GOING TO TRY TO MAKE
A STATEMENT.
HE WANTS TO GET THE STOPPAGE.
NO ONE STOPS ARTHUR ABRAHAM!
HE'S AS HARD AS NAILS.
HE'S SOMEONE THAT WE'VE SEEN WIN
24 WORLD TITLE FIGHTS -- 
>> THE VERY BEST. 
>> HELD HIS OWN WITH EVERYONE.
BUT TO STOP HIM, THAT WOULD BE A
MAJOR STATEMENT THAT WOULD GO 
OUT TO THE REST OF THE 
SUPERMIDDLES.
AND REMEMBER, THERE'S JAMES 
DEGAIL, IT IS A FANTASTIC GROUP.
>> AND WE'LL HAVE SOME OF THE 
SPECIAL GUESTS TOMORROW RINGSIDE
ON ITV BOX OFFICE.
25 FIGHTS, 24 WINS, 27 YEARS OF 
AGE, CHRIS EUBANK JR.
HE SIGNED UP TO THE WORLD BOXING
SUPERSERIES EVENT.
IF HE WINS THIS, THE NEXT BIG 
MILESTONE ON THE HORIZON IS A 
UNIFICATION FIGHT WITH GEORGE 
GROSS.
HE'S LOOKING AT THAT.
HE WANTS THAT. 
>> YES, OF COURSE HE DOES, AND 
HE ALSO WANTS JAMES DEGAIL 
BECAUSE THEY'VE HAD SPARRING 
SESSIONS AND YOU'LL HEAR RUMORS 
WHO'S BEEN DOING BETTER IN THE 
SPARRING.
THE BOXERS KNOW THEMSELVES.
AND THERE'S ANOTHER VERY GOOD 
WBC NUMBER ONE MIDDLE WEIGHT 
CHAMP, COLIN SMITH FROM 
LIVERPOOL.
NOW HE'S IN THE MIX.
SO, THERE IS GROVE, CULLEN SMITH
AND EUBANK JUNIOR.
EUBANK JUNIOR CAN FLUCTUATE 
BETWEEN MIDDLE AND ALSO SU
D
SUPERMIDDLE.
HE'S MORE COMFORTABLE AT 
SUPERMIDDLE, BUT HE CAN DROP 
DOWN AGAIN, AND THAT SHOWS HE'S 
GOT STRENGTH TO GO MIDDLE AND 
HOLD HIS OWN WITH THE SUPER 
MIDDLEWEIGHT DIVISIONS. 
>> WHEN HE FIRST MOVED UP TO 
SUPER MIDDLEWEIGHT, HE DID SAY 
IT WASN'T GOING TO BE PERMANENT.
>> WELL, THIS IS WHAT I'M 
SAYING.
HE SAID THAT HE WANTS A TWO-WAY 
WORLD CHAMPION.
HE'S WON THE IBO TITLE NOW.
IT'S A LESS RECOGNIZED CROWN, 
LET'S GET IT RIGHT, AND THAT'S 
WHY HE WANTS TO GET IT ON WITH 
GEORGE GROVES AS THE WBA 
CHAMPION AND JAMES DEGAIL, WHO I
THINK IS AN EXCEPTIONAL FIGHTER,
ALWAYS BOXING ON THE ROAD IN 
PEOPLE'S HOME BACKYARDS.
HE'S A GREAT FIGHTER, DEGAIL.
SO LIKE I SAY, IT'S VERY, VERY 
EXCITING INDEED, BUT CHRIS 
EUBANK JR., TO WIN A WORLD TITLE
IN SUPER MIDDLEWEIGHT AND 
MIDDLE, IT WOULD BE LIKE HIS 
FATHER.
HIS FATHER DID IT.
STEVE COLLINS DID IT, NIGEL BENN
DID IT.
HE'D BE ALONG WITH THOSE GREATS.
>> SOME PEOPLE SAY THAT ABOUT 
THE IBO BELT, BUT UNABLE TO 
TELL.
>> THAT'S A FIGHT THAT HE WANTS 
ALSO.
I SPOKE TO CHRIS EUBANK JR.
HE'S CRAVING FOR THAT FIGHT, OR 
SO HE SAYS.
>> WELL, SOMEONE ELSE WHO'S 
MOVED UP AND DOWN THE WEIGHTS IS
FLOYD MAYWEATHER JR., AND HE 
WILL BE FIGHTING CONOR McGREGOR 
AT 154 POUNDS.
JUST TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK 
ABOUT THE DECISION TO FIGHT AT 
THAT WEIGHT, BECAUSE THAT'S A 
WEIGHT WHERE CONOR'S REALLY 
COMFORTABLE.
IT'S NOT SO COMFORTABLE FOR THE 
UNDEFEATED FLOYD MAYWEATHER JR. 
>> WHEN YOU LOOK AT CONOR 
McGREGOR'S RECORD, HE'S BEEN A 
WORLD CHAMP, REMEMBER, AT 
LIGHTWEIGHT AND AT 
FEATHERWEIGHT, SO IT'S A NEW 
WEIGHT FOR HIM ALSO, AND 
PROBABLY MAYWEATHER THINKING 
HE'S NOT A NATURAL LIGHT MIDDLE 
WEIGHT ANYWAY.
BUT LOOKING AT BOTH OF THEM IN 
THE FACE-OFFS THAT THEY'VE HAD, 
McGREGOR LOOKS NATURALLY THE 
BIGGER MAN.
BUT LIKE I SAY, MAYWEATHER USES 
THAT TO HIS ADVANTAGE.
AND THE BIGGEST PROBLEM IS GOING
TO BE THE FRUSTRATION FOR 
McGREGOR, LIKE I SAID BEFORE, 
AND FALLING INTO THAT TRAP.
WITH MAYWEATHER, IT'S THE SPEED 
OF MOVEMENT.
AND HE'S MAKING A CALCULATED 
RISK LIKE HE HAS DONE IN MOST OF
HIS FIGHTS IN THAT HE'S GONE UP 
TO LIGHT MIDDLE WEIGHT, OR 
SUPERWELTER, AS WE CALL IT -- 
>> AGAINST PACQUIAO. 
>> THIS IS AGAINST PACQUIAO, 
WELTERWEIGHT.
SO, HE CAN GO TO 154, BUT HE 
NEVER WEIGHS IN HARDLY AT 154.
HE CAN BE FOUR OR FIVE POUNDS 
LIGHTER THAN HIS OPPONENT 
BECAUSE HE FEELS THE ADVANTAGE 
OF THE SPEED OF MOVEMENT.
LOOK AT HIM HERE.
HE'S KEEPING HIS DISTANCE, 
BOXING ON THE OUTSIDE, WAITING 
FOR HIS OPPONENT TO COME IN.
HE'S AS STRONG AS THEY COME, BUT
THAT'S A LOVELY TURN THERE, THEN
HE'S BACK ON THE CENTER OF THE 
RING.
HE CONTROLS THE PACE VERY WELL.
LOOK AT HOW HE HITS HIM THERE 
WHEN HE WAS SETTING FOR ATTACK.
SO HE WAITS FOR THE BIGGER MAN 
TO COME FORWARD AND HE COUNTER 
ATTACKS.
HE BEATS HIM TO THE PUNCH.
THIS IS AGAINST SAUL SALVAREZ,  
GREAT FIGHT AND ONE OF THE MOST 
EXCITING MEXICAN FIGHTERS WE'VE 
SEEN IN YEARS, BUT LOOK AT 
MAYWEATHER HERE.
HE'S INCREDIBLE!
HOOKS.
THERE'S THE LEFT HOOK IN THERE, 
RIGHT-HANDER RIGHT AT THE TORSO.
HE'S EXCEPTIONAL.
HIS ACCURACY IS SUPERB.
BUT HE DOESN'T HAVE THE 
DISTANCE.
THE SHOT RIGHT TO THE MIDDLE, 
THEN BACK OUT TO SAFETY.
THAT'S WHAT MAKES IT. 
>> FOR 21 YEARS HE'S BEEN 
BEATING EVERYONE.
FOR YEARS HE'S BEEN A WORLD 
CHAMPION, BUT IT'S ALL ON THE 
LINE IN THIS FIGHT.
WELL, THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE 
SUPPOSED TO BELIEVE.
DOES HE THINK, LIKE MOST BOXERS,
McGREGOR HAS JUST A PUNCHER'S 
CHANCE?
>> YES, I THINK THAT'S EXACTLY 
WHAT MAYWEATHER THINKS.
HE'S GOT A PUNCHER'S CHANCE, BUT
SO HAVE SO MANY OTHER BOXERS 
THAT HAVE FOUGHT MAYWEATHER.
THEY ALL THINK THAT OVER 12 
ROUNDS, HE'LL SLOW DOWN, THERE 
WILL BE A LAPSE IN 
CONCENTRATION, AND I'LL GET HIM 
WITH THAT ONE BIG PUNCH AND LAY 
HIM OUT.
BUT WHY HE'S SO GOOD IS THAT HE 
DOESN'T LAPSE IN CONCENTRATION.
YOU CAN COUNT THE AMOUNT OF 
TIMES ON YOUR ONE HAND THAT HE 
GETS CAUGHT CLEAN OVER 12 
ROUNDS.
HE JUST DOESN'T LAPSE IN 
CONCENTRATION.
HIS CONCENTRATION LEVELS ARE 
VERY, VERY GOOD INDEED, EVERY 
SECOND OF EVERY ROUND, 
MAYWEATHER IS ON THE BALL.
HE CONCENTRATES.
THAT'S PROBABLY ONE OF HIS 
GREATEST ASSETS, HIS 
CONCENTRATION.
>> BY THE WAY, I KNOW YOU'RE NOT
SURPRISED BY THE DELAY TO THIS 
PRESS CONFERENCE.
YOU CAN SEE RAY FLORES, THE 
EMCEE, IN THE CENTER OF THE RING
HERE AT THE SSE WEMBLEY ARENA IN
LONDON, WHIPPING UP THE CROWD 
AND GETTING READY FOR THE 
ENTRANCE OF THE TWO MAIN 
PROTAGONISTS TONIGHT, THE TWO 
SUPERHEROES, FLOYD MAYWEATHER 
AND CONOR McGREGOR.
AND WHEN YOU LOOK AT CONOR 
McGREGOR, YOU KNOW, HE SAID I'M 
GOING TO DO 44 FIGHTS IN 
PREPARATION.
I THINK HE WAS OVERSELLING THAT.
SOME BOXERS DO 125-140 ROUNDS OF
SPARRING FOR PREP FOR A BIG 
FIGHT LIKE THIS, BUT HE HAS GOT 
THAT POWER WITH HIS PUNCH.
A LOT OF MMA FIGHTERS RELY ON 
OTHER ATTRIBUTES, BUT HIS HANDS 
ARE THE THING THAT DOES THE 
DAMAGE. 
>> YEAH, HE'S VERY GOOD WITH HIS
HANDS.
I'VE SEEN THIS BEFORE.
LOOK, HE WAITS, HE WAITS.
HE'S LACKING FOR THE SHOT.
ANOTHER SHOT THERE.
SUPER PUNCH.
NOW HE WANTS HIS OPPONENT TO 
COME FORWARD.
HE ACTUALLY ATTACKS HIMSELF, AND
THAT'S ANOTHER MOVE THERE FROM 
MMA.
WATCH THERE, HE LEANS OVER THE 
RIGHT, BUT THIS IS THE BEST 
SHOT.
WATCH THIS.
YOU JUST SEE SPEED.
THAT'S SKILL.
A WORLD CHAMPION.
THAT'S ONE OF THE BIGGEST 
KNOCKOUTS IN UFC HISTORY. 
>> ABSOLUTELY.
13 SECONDS. 
>> JUST HIS FEET AND THEN BRINGS
HIM ON TO SHOT.
SO HIS BOXING SKILLS AREN'T BAD 
AT ALL.
AND BECAUSE HE'S GOT VERY SMALL 
GLOVES ON, FOUR INCHES OR 
WHATEVER, THE PUNCH IS OBVIOUSLY
HEARD.
THE KID'S GOT POWER, NO 
QUESTION, BUT THE BIG QUESTION 
IS, WHAT CAN HE DO DIFFERENTLY 
AGAINST FLOYD MAYWEATHER THAT NO
ONE ELSE HAS?
THAT'S THE BIG QUESTION.
SO LOOK HERE, HERE HE IS THERE.
WHAT CAN HE DO DIFFERENTLY THAT 
ALL OF THE OTHER BOXERS HAVE 
FAILED TO DO?
BECAUSE HE'S GOT TO FIND THAT 
BIG SHOT FROM SOMEWHERE.
HE'S GOT 12 ROUNDS TO DO IT.
HE'LL TAKE A LOT OF PUNISHMENT, 
I THINK, A LOT OF STICK IN THE 
PROCESS, BUT YES, HE'S GOT THE 
CHANCE OF LANDING THAT ONE SHOT.
WHEN YOU LAND IT ON FLOYD 
MAYWEATHER, NO ONE ELSE HAS YET,
IT'S VERY DIFFICULT. 
>> YOU LOOK AT SOME OF THOSE 
NAMES HE'S COME UP AGAINST IN 
BEATING DIEGO, HOLLOWAY, 
ALVAREZ, DIAZ, AND JOSE ALDO.
AS I MENTIONED, WHO HE POLISHED 
OFF IN 13 SECONDS.
HE SAYS HE'S MYSTIC MACK.
HE SAYS HE'S MYSTIC MACK BECAUSE
IN THE DRESSING ROOM PRIOR TO 
THAT FIGHT, HE TOLD EVERYBODY, 
IT'S ON TAPE, 13 SECONDS, I'LL 
FINISH HIM OFF.
AND THIS IS A GUY WHO WAS 
UNDEFEATED FOR TEN YEARS, ONE OF
THE BIGGEST NAMES IN MMA. 
>> HE'S A TREMENDOUS SHOWMAN, 
ISN'T HE?
HE KNOWS HOW TO GET UNDER HIS 
OPPONENT'S SKIN AND THAT'S WHAT 
HE'S DONE ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, 
BUT LISTEN, A LOT I COULD SAY.
I DON'T KNOW MMA, BUT I KNOW 
BOXING.
WELL, I THINK I DO, ANYWAY.
AND HE'S GOT SOME DECENT BOXING 
SKILLS, BUT HE'S GOT TO TURN 
THAT THEN WITH THOSE BIGGER 
GLOVES ON AND HE'S GOT TO LURE 
MR. FLOYD MAYWEATHER ON TO ONE 
OF THOSE SHOTS OR HE CAN 
ACTUALLY GO AFTER HIM VERY 
AGGRESSIVELY, BUT SO MANY BOXERS
HAVE TRIED THAT AND THEY FAILED.
MAYBE HE IS TO JUST SIT BACK A 
LITTLE BIT AND TRY TO MAKE FLOYD
MAYWEATHER MISS HIM FOR SURE AND
THEN TRY TO COUNTER HIM, BUT 
THAT'S GOING TO BE DIFFICULT 
BECAUSE HE'S SO QUICK WITH HIS 
FEET IN AND OUT.
THAT'S THE PROBLEM. 
>> TALKING OF BOXING ABILITY, 
GABRIEL GOT SOME MORE.
>> THE REASON FOR THE LITTLE 
DELAY NOW IS CONOR McGREGOR IS 
APPARENTLY OVER THE ROAD JUST 
GETTING CHANGED.
SO, WE'RE EXPECTING THE IRISHMAN
IMMINENTLY.
A BIG MANCHESTER UNITED FAN NEXT
TO ME.
THIS ATMOSPHERE, DARE I SAY IT, 
IS BETTER THAN OLD TRAFFORD AT 
TIMES LAST SEASON AT HOME?
>> OLD TRAFFORD MADE THAT POINT,
LOOKING LIKE SUPPORT, BUT NO, 
THIS IS VERY SPECIAL.
I THINK THE ONLY THING CLOSE TO 
THIS IS SOME OF THE WAY YOU USED
TO SEE WITH THE TAKEOVER, 30,000
BRITS.
AND YOU SEE THE WEIGH-IN, BUT 
THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE.
UNBELIEVABLE.
>> ON THE OPPOSITE, IT'S THE 
FIGHT THE WORLD WANTED TO SEE, 
IS CLEARLY WHAT MAYWEATHER AND 
McGREGOR CAMPS ARE TELLING US.
JUST WHY DO YOU THINK THAT IS?
WHAT IS IT THAT HAS REALLY 
CAPTURED THE IMAGINATION ABOUT 
THIS?
>> I THINK IT'S THE OLD BOXING 
VERSUS MMA. 
>> THE UNKNOWN. 
>> THAT'S IT, THE UNKNOWN.
AND YOU SEE IT TODAY.
THERE'S SO MANY PEOPLE TEACHING 
BOXING, MMA, AND EVERYONE'S GOT 
THEIR OWN OPINION.
AND OBVIOUSLY, ME PERSONALLY, I 
THINK BOXING WINS EVERY DAY OF 
THE WEEK, BUT I THINK PEOPLE 
HAVE SAID, HE'S AN MMA FIGHTER 
GOING INTO A BOXING RING UNDER 
THOSE RULES AND IT'S GOING TO BE
VERY, VERY TOUGH FOR HIM.
>> WHO DO YOU MAKE OF THOSE?
THERE HAVE BEEN A FEW, 
OBVIOUSLY, IN THE BOXING WORLD 
WHO DON'T LIKE THIS, DON'T LIKE 
THE IDEA OF IT AT ALL, DON'T 
THINK IT'S GOOD FOR THE FUTURE 
OF BOXING.
>> LISTEN, I UNDERSTAND THAT, 
AND I ALSO UNDERSTAND A LOT OF 
PEOPLE SAY THIS SHOULD NOT BE 
ALLOWED.
YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT ONE OF THE 
GREATEST
 WHAT I'D LIKE TO SAY AT THE 
SAME TIME, THE AMOUNT OF VIEWERS
THIS FIGHT IS GOING TO GET, THE 
AMOUNT WATCHING IT, IT'S JUST A 
FRACTION OF THEM.
STAY TUNED INTO BOXING AFTER 
THIS EVENT.
>> THEY HAVE SAID IF McGREGOR 
WAS TO WIN, THE CREDIBILITY OF 
BOXING AS A SPORT WILL HAVE BEEN
DAMAGED, WON'T IT?
>> THAT IS THE RISK BECAUSE 
YOU'RE TALKING, LIKE I SAID, ONE
OF THE BEST FIGHTERS.
LOSES TO A GUY WHO HAS NEVER HAD
A PROFESSIONAL FIGHT.
AS BIG A McGREGOR FAN I AM, THE 
DAMAGE IT WOULD DO TO BOXING.
>> WHAT DO YOU SAY, WE TALKED TO
FLOYD MAYWEATHER EARLIER.
HE'S 29, HE'S 41.
HE'S BUILDING THE JEOPARDY OF 
THE FIGHT.
DO YOU SEE IT AS A FORMALITY OR 
A LITTLE BIT MORE CIRCUMSPECT?
>> I'VE GOT TO BE HONEST, I SEE 
IT AS A FORMALITY.
FLOYD ENDS THE FIGHT WHEN HE 
WANTS.
PEOPLE SAY WHAT HAPPENS IF HE 
LANDS.
FLOYD HAS BEEN AFTER MOWSLY, 
McDONAGH, SO ON.
I KNOW HE'S GOT A LITTLE BIT 
OLDER, BUT IT'S HARD TO MAKE A 
CASE WITH McGREGOR IN THE BOXING
RING.
>> GOOD TO GET YOUR OPINION ON 
TOMORROW NIGHT.
YOU OBVIOUSLY HAVE FOLLOWED 
CHRIS EUBANKS CAREER.
YOU KNOW ARTHUR ABRAHAM, YOU'VE 
WATCHED HIM IN CLOSE QUARTERS.
>> I'VE BEEN UP CLOSE, IN THE 
OPPOSITION CORNER WHEN THEY 
CHALLENGED TWICE.
AND I'VE SEEN HIM CLOSE UP.
AND IT WAS ALSO IN GERMANY LAST 
MONTH, I WAS SPEAKING TO YURI.
HE SAID AFTER ABRAHAM, HE'S 
LOOKING GOOD FOR THIS AS HE HAS 
THE LAST FEW YEARS.
AT THE SAME TIME SPEAKING TO 
JUNIOR BEFORE, HE LOOKS IN GREAT
SHAPE.
HE ALWAYS DOES.
HE LIKES THE CHALLENGE AND IT'S 
THE VERY LAST DAY WITH HIM.
WHAT THE WINNER GOES ON TO DO 
TOMORROW NIGHT.
>> YOU MENTIONED OBVIOUSLY PAUL 
SMEEGT.
HE COMPETED WITH PAUL SMITH IN A
FIGHT.
HE'S BEEN WITH SOME MAJOR NAMES,
FRENCH KESSLER, WARD.
HOW MUCH IS THAT EXPERIENCE 
GOING TO COUNT FOR TOMORROW 
NIGHT AGAINST A FIGHTER WHO SEES
HE'S NOWHERE NEAR AS GOOD 
THAT'S?
>> THERE'S NO DENYING HE'S COME 
TO THE TAIL END OF HIS CAREER.
EXPERIENCE COUNTS FOR AN AWFUL 
LOT.
YOU TALK ABOUT THOSE NAMES, YOU 
CAN'T -- AND SO ON.
YOU SAW ME.
NOT ONE OF THEM WILL SAY IT'S 
BEEN AN EASY NIGHT'S WORK.
SO THAT'S WHY HE ASKS SO MANY 
QUESTIONS OF CHRIS EUBANKS, JR. 
I PERSONALLY WANT HIM TO WIN.
I WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED IF HE 
HAS A FEW ROCKY MOMENTS IN THE 
FIGHT.
THAT'S WHAT HE NEEDS AT THIS 
STAGE.
>> BRIEFLY, WHAT IS YOUR READING
OF THE ISSUE ABE HAM HAD, 
SERIOUSISH OUT OR NOT?
>> HE WAS 2 POUNDS OVER.
I THOUGHT THERE'S NO WAY HE 
COULD LOSE.
HE DOESN'T LOOK DRAINED ANYWAY.
IF HE WAS DRY, AT THAT POINT TO 
LOSE 2 POUNDS, IT WOULD HAVE 
BEEN VERY, VERY HARD TO DO AND 
HE MANAGED TO DO IT.
SO, I DON'T SEE HIM SPEAKING TOO
MUCH, IT'S IDEAL.
I GENUINELY BELIEVE AND I HEARD 
HE WAS ON WAY ALL WEEK.
I GENUINELY BELIEVE HE'S BEEN 
GOING OFF SCALES, HE GOT OFF THE
WRONG SCALES.
THAT'S WHAT I BELIEVE.
>> FINAL WORD, LEE SELBY FIGHTS 
TOMORROW NIGHT, DEFENDS HIS 
WORLD TITLE.
A FRUSTRATING TIME FOR HIM 
AGAINST BAROS.
THAT MATCH ON NOW.
GIVE US YOUR OPINION ABOUT THAT.
>> LEE I'M SURE IT'S BEEN WELL 
DOCUMENTED, IT'S A CREDIT, THE 
TRAGEDY OF LOSING HIS MOTHER 
THIS WEEK.
BUT FOR ME LEE SELBY POUND FOR 
POUND IS ONE OF THE VERY BEST IF
NOT THE BEST FIGHTER IN BRITAIN 
IN MY OPINION.
HE'S CERTAINLY IN THE TOP THREE.
AND I EXPECT HIM TO SHINE 
TOMORROW NIGHT.
I KNOW THERE'S A LOT OF PRESSURE
ON HIM.
HE'S A GOOD FIGHTER.
THIS IS HIS BIG OPPORTUNITY.
HE LOOKS FOR A HUGE, HUGE 
FEATHER WEIGHT.
I SEE HIM SHINING TOMORROW 
NIGHT.
>> DO YOU SEE THE POSSIBILITY OF
CARL FRAMPTON?
THAT'S WHAT LEE WOULD LOVE NEXT.
>> I CERTAINLY DO.
MAYBE A GREAT FIGHT BETWEEN TWO 
OF THE VERY BEST HEAVY WEIGHTS 
IN THE WORLD.
I KNOW CARL HAS HIS OWN BUSINESS
TO TAKE CARE OF.
I'M SURE -- I KNOW IT'S THE 
FINAL.
IF I COULD PICK ANY TWO BRITISH 
FIGHTERS THAT MIGHT BE IT.
>> ARE YOU READY FOR THE SHOW?
>> I CAN'T WAIT.
>> BACK TO SAM.
>> THESE GUYS IN HERE THIS 
EVENING WAITING FOR CONNOR 
McGREGOR AND FLOYD MAYWEATHER, 
JR. WE'RE WAITING FOR CHRIS YU 
BANK, JR., AND TOMORROW NIGHT 
THERE ARE BELTS ON THE LINE IN 
ALL OF OUR LIVE FIGHTS AS WE 
BUILD TOWARDS THAT BIG MATCH UP 
AROUND ABOUT 10:30 THEY SHOULD 
BE IN THE RING.
THE CHAMPION'S BIGGEST TEST.
AND A REMINDER OF EXACTLY HOW 
YOU CAN GET HOLD OF ALL OF THAT 
BY GOING TO OUR WEBSITE.
AT ITP BOX OFFICE.COM.
THE FIRST INTO THE RING TOMORROW
NIGHT, WHEN YOU LOOK AT SOME OF 
THE OTHER FIGHTS, I MEAN, THIS 
IS ANOTHER BIG ONE.
6:30.
GETTING A START, THE INTER 
CONTINENTAL FEATHER WEIGHT 
TITLE.
AGAINST MEXICO, HE WEIGHED IN AT
125 POUNDS 4 OUNCES.
HE SAYS HE'S RIPPED AND READY TO
GO.
THIS GUY, HE SAYS OF HIMSELF, 
YOU BRING YOUR POPCORN TO WATCH.
>> I REALLY RATE CALLAHAN.
LOVELY SKILLS.
HE WAS FORMER BRITISH 
COMMONWEALTH, PHANTOM WEIGHT 
CHAMPION.
HE MOVED TO FEATHER WEIGHT.
HE COULD BE THE DARK HORSE.
HE'S 22-0.
13 K.O.s.
HE'S VERY GOOD AT HITTING AND 
NOT GETTING HIT FROM THE INGLES 
CAMP.
JIM UP IN SHE FIELD.
KID CALLAHAN FOR ME COULD BE THE
DARK HORSE IN THAT DIVISION.
ONCE A WORLD TITLE FIGHTER, 
THINKS HE SHOULD BE UP THERE.
I DON'T THINK HE'LL BE TOO FAR 
AWAY.
>> AT THE WBA SUPER LIGHTWEIGHT 
TITLE IS ON THE LINE.
I WAS LOOKING EARLIER, SAW ROBBY
DAVIS, JR., HAD A CHAT WITH 
GABRIEL AT SOME STAGE.
DAVIS, JR. IS UNDEFEATED, BUT 
THIS IS STEPPING UP A NOTCH, 
ISN'T IT?
>> YEAH, HE'S IN AGAINST A 
PRETTY STURDY OPPONENT IN 
SERAVAKA.
>> THAT'S IT, FROM POLAND.
>> YOU SAY IT MUCH BETTER AFTER 
THAT.
>> ABSOLUTELY.
HE'S HAVING HIS FIRST CONTACT 
OUTSIDE POLAND, FIRST ONE IN THE
U.K.
WHO KNOWS, IT COULD BE IN THE 
HEADLINES.
ROBBY DAVIS, JR. IS GOING GREAT,
15-0, THIRD DEFENSE OF THE 
TITLE.
DOMESTICALLY, IT'S A GREAT 
DIVISION.
THEY JUST HAD A GREAT WIN 
AGAINST DAVIS.
TYRONE NURSE IS CHOMPING AT THE 
BIT.
SO, YEAH, DAVIS, JR. IS IN THE 
MIX.
HE'S GOT TO GET OVER TOMORROW 
NIGHT.
>> HIS DAD WAS A COLORFUL 
KASKA
CHARACTER, WASN'T HE?
THIS IS HIS FIRST OUTING SINCE 
JANUARY.
DOES THAT MAKE A DIFFERENCE?
>> NO, NOT REALLY.
HE OBVIOUSLY WOULD HAVE WANTED 
ONE IN BETWEEN, BUT IT JUST 
DEPENDS, AS HE SAID IN THE GYM, 
HE'S GOT A GOOD SPAR FOR THIS 
ONE.
IDEALLY HE WOULD HAVE WANTED ONE
IN BETWEEN.
HE HAS ALL TO BOX FOR STILL, 
15-0.
HE'S LOOKING AT BIGGER THINGS.
THIS IS A GOOD STUDENT TEST FOR 
HIM, THIS POLISH BOXER.
HE'S LOOKING FOR BIGGER NAMES IN
THE DIVISION.
HE KNOWS HE HAS TO PERFORM WELL 
TOMORROW NIGHT, AND I'M SURE 
HE'LL DO THAT.
MARTIN J. WAS ONE OF THOSE AS 
WELL.
HE TAKES ON ANTHONY.
THE COMMONWEALTH SUPER FEATHER 
WEIGHT TITLE TOMORROW NIGHT.
THIS IS A BOY THAT CARL FRAMPTON
REALLY RATES.
>> YES, IT WAS INDEED.
TRAINING WITH MARTIN WOOD.
I'M A COACH UP AT CHEF FIELD 
OLYMPIC QUAD.
IF HE WINS, HE EARNS BETHE BELT 
OUTRIGHT.
SUPER FEATHER WEIGHT, REMEMBER, 
YOU HAVE ONE OF THE BEST POUND 
FOR POUND BOXERS IN THE WORLD.
FROM UKRAINE.
THE CHAMP WALSH, SO IT'S A GREAT
DIVISION.
MARTIN WARD WANTS THAT BELT.
AND HE'LL BE LOOKING AT THE 
BIGGER NAMES IN THE DIVISION.
>> ITP BOX OFFICE.COM FOR ALL 
THE DETAILS.
JUST BEHIND THE BIG EUBANK, JR. 
AND ABRAHAM FIGHT TOMORROW, OF 
COURSE LEE SELBY LOOKING TO 
RETURN, HIS FEATHER WEIGHT TITLE
WHEN HE TAKES ON VICTOR.
THIS WAS SCHEDULED FOR JANUARY 
BEFORE IT EMERGED THAT JONATHAN 
HAD A B TEST FOR THE NEVADA 
STATE COMMISSION.
HE CHALLENGED THAT.
THERE HAVE BEEN WRANGLINGS.
IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME COMING FOR
LEE SELBY TO GET THIS SHOT.
>> HE'S A CHALLENGER FROM 
ARGENTINA.
ALL THE ARGENTINE BOXERS ARE 
VERY TOUGH.
HE'S ONLY BEEN STOPPED ONCE IN 
HIS FOUR DEFEATS.
HE'S AGE 33.
PROBABLY HIS LAST CHANCE.
BUT LEE SELBY IS A QUALITY, 
QUALITY BOXER E. HE PROBABLY 
NEEDS MORE POWER IN HIS WORTH.
HE HITS AND HE MOVES, HE MAKES 
HIS OPPONENT MISS.
>> WE DO WISH HIM ALL THE BEST.
LET'S GO RINGSIDE AGAIN.
GABRIEL CLARK IS ONE OF TOMORROW
NIGHT'S STARTS.
>> YES, ROBBY DAVIS, JR. HAS 
JOINED US.
ROBBY, GREAT TO SEE YOU.
SOAKING UP THIS ATMOSPHERE, AN 
AT MONTHS FOR LIKE NONE OTHER 
WITH A BOXING RING IN THE MIDDLE
OF THE ARENA AND NO BOXING TO 
CUP.
>> I'VE NEVER SEEN A SPECTACLE 
LIKE IT FOR BOXING.
I'VE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE 
THIS FOR A PRESS CONFERENCE.
>> WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THIS AS A
FIGHT IN TERMS OF MMA VERSUS 
BOXING?
LISTEN, IN A WAY THE FUTURE MUCH
BOXING IS AT STAKE, ISN'T IT?
WHAT IF McGREGOR WAS TO WIN?
>> BECAUSE OF FLOYD MAYWEATHER 
BEING THE BEST EVER, GETTING A 
DEBUT AND A SHOT AT HIM, IF IT 
WAS ONE SIDE, BEING A BOXER I 
PERSONALLY THINK FLOYD WILL WIN 
EASY.
PROBABLY NOT GET THE KNOCK OUT 
OR IF IT DIDN'T HAVE THAT ON 
BOTH, IT WOULDN'T BE A SPECTACLE
THE WAY IT IS.
CONNOR McGREGOR IN THE CAGE IS A
KNOCK OUT ARTIST.
THE GLOVES AREN'T MUCH BIGGER.
THE EFFORT IS ALWAYS GOING TO BE
THERE.
>> THAT'S THE THING.
MOST PEOPLE YOU TALK TO FAVOR 
MAYWEATHER, BUT THERE'S DOUBT.
THERE IS AN ELEMENT OF DOUBT 
CREEPING IN MAYBE BY THE DAY 
BECAUSE DARE I SAY, McGREGOR HAS
BEEN THE MOST IMPRESSIVE THE 
LAST FEW DAYS, THE MOST STRIDE 
ENTITLE.
>> McGREGOR PUT IT ON THE REST 
OF HIS TEAM.
HE'S EVEN GIVEN THEM A BIT OF 
STICK AS WELL.
OBVIOUSLY I THINK TONIGHT IS 
GOING TO BE THE GRAND FINALE, 
LEAVING IT ALL FOR LONDON.
I JUST -- EVERY DAMON IY ONE DAL
SAY MAYWEATHER, ANOTHER DAY I'LL
SAY McGREGOR.
IT IS BECAUSE HE'S SO MUCH 
BIGGER.
ON FIGHT NIGHT I THINK McGREGOR 
PULLS OUT A STONE ON HIM.
OBVIOUSLY THERE'S A LOT OF OTHER
FIGHTERS OUT THERE, THE BEST 
BOXERS WE'VE EVER HAD IN THIS 
ERA.
AND FLOYD'S MADE IT LOOK SIMPLE.
>> THERE'S NEVER BEEN A SHOW 
LIKE THIS IN TERMS OF A BUILDUP.
WHAT DO YOU THINK THESE FOUR 
DAYS WILL COUNT FOR IN TERMS OF 
THE FIGHT ITSELF?
>> SORRY, SAY THAT AGAIN.
>> WHAT DO YOU THINK THESE FOUR 
DAYS WILL COUNT FOR IN TERMS OF 
THE FIGHT ITSELF, AND MAYBE A 
SWITCH IN PSYCHOLOGY, THAT SORT 
OF THING?
WE TALK A LOT BUILT HYPE IN 
BOXING AND IN MMA.
>> McGREGOR HAS BUILT A LOT OF 
HYPE OVER IT.
OBVIOUSLY THE WAY IT ALL MADE 
OUT FOR, BUT ANYONE THAT KNOWS 
BOXING AND THINGS LIKE THAT, I 
THINK THE MAJORITY OF BOXING 
PEOPLE WILL BE OPEN FOR FLOYD TO
WIN.
IT'S MORE THE OUTSIDERS THAT 
WANT FLOYD TO FAIL, THAT WOULD 
WANT FLOYD TO FALL SHORT OR, MY 
OPINION, FLOYD WILL COME OUT ON 
TOP.
THAT'S THE WAY I'M FEELING TODAY
ANYWAY.
>> ROBBY, WE LOOK FORWARD TO YOU
FIGHTING TOMORROW NIGHT.
WE MIGHT CHAT TO YOU A BIT LATER
ABOUT THAT.
BUT YOU GET THE SENSE IN THE 
ARENA THAT SOMETHING IS BREWING.
THE PROTAGONISTS ARE CLOSE TO 
ARRIVING.
>> WE'VE BEEN GETTING THAT SENSE
FOR A LITTLE WHILE, HAVEN'T WE?
THE TENSION IS RISING INSIDE THE
SSEWEMBLY ARENA.
IT'S NOT LONG NOW BEFORE WE SEE 
THESE TWO GIANTS OF COMBAT 
SPORTS.
THE MAN WHO IS 49-0, FLOYD 
MAYWEATHER, JR. LOOKING FOR HIS 
5th DIG.
CONNOR McGREGOR, THE CURRENT UFC
LIGHTWEIGHT WELT CHAMPION.
THE FIRST MAN TO DO THAT IN UFC 
HISTORY.
IT WAS FASCINATING TO HEAR FROM 
ROBBY DAVIDSON.
HIS VIEW ON THIS FIGHT COMING UP
AUGUST 26 IN THE BRAND-NEW MGM 
T-MOBILE ARENA ON THE LAS VEGAS 
BOULEVARD.
THIS IS A FIGHT THAT IS 
DIFFERENT FOR CONNOR McGREGOR.
IT'S A RING.
10-OUNCE BOXING GLASS, 12-THREE 
MINUTE ROUNDS.
IT'S A LOT TO ADAPT TO.
>> A ROUND IS 5 MINUTES IN THE 
ROUND HE'S BEEN BOXING.
A LOT OF THAT CAN BE ON THE 
FLOOR AND GRAPPLING.
IT'S A TOTALLY DIFFERENT 
DISCIPLINE.
I'VE SPOKE TO PEOPLE THAT HAVE 
WATCHED HIM SPAR.
THEY SAY HE'S SHAPED NOT TOO 
BAD.
WHAT HAS CROSSED A LOT OF 
PEOPLE'S MIND IS IF THINGS 
AREN'T GOING HIS WAY AND HE IS 
BEING BEATEN COMPREHENSIVELY, 
YOU KNOW, ONE-WAY TRAFFIC SORT 
OF THING, WILL HE REVERT TO A 
NATURAL INSTINCTS OF TRYING TO 
SWEEP MAYWEATHER OFF HIS FEET?
I THINK HE HAS TO WATCH WHAT 
HE'S DOING.
HIS BIGGEST PROBLEM IS 
CONTROLLING THOSE EMOTIONS 
BECAUSE MAYWEATHER MAY JUST WELL
HAPPEN HERE, BUT HE HAS TO WATCH
WHAT HE'S DOING, McGREGOR.
I'M SURE McGREGOR WILL GO 
THROUGH HIS MIND, AT SOME STAGE 
IT WILL GO THROUGH HIS MIND 
WHERE HE'LL SEE AN OPPORTUNITY, 
WHERE HE CAN TAKE MAYWEATHER TO 
THE GROUND.
WILL HE DO IT?
YOU NEVER KNOW WITH CONNOR 
McGREGOR.
>> KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE 
FLORIST, TO THE LEFT OF YOUR 
SCREEN.
MINUSCULE, JUST OUTSIDE THE 
RING.
WHEN HE GOES IN THE RING NEXT 
TIME, WE RECKON THAT'S OUR QUE 
FOR THINGS KICKING OFF HEREIN 
SIDE THE SSE ARENA OF WEMBLY.
GETTING IN THE MIND OF AN 
OPPONENT, THAT'S WHAT THESE 
FIGHTERS ARE REALLY VERY GOOD 
AT.
THEY DO INCREDIBLY WELL.
WE'VE SEEN THAT THIS WEEK.
WE'VE SEEN THE NEEDLE BETWEEN 
THE TWO OF THEM REALLY RAMP UP 
OVER THE COURSE OF THE LAST FEW 
DAYS.
TO BE HONEST WITH YOU, I THOUGHT
MAYBE LAST NIGHT WENT A LITTLE 
BIT TOO FAR.
I THOUGHT THEY WERE SAILING 
CLOSE TO THE WIND, MAYBE 
YESTERDAY JUST STRAIGHT OVER THE
EDGE A LITTLE BIT.
IT WAS ENTERTAINING FAIR, IT WAS
BUILDING THE HEIGHT OF THE 
FIGHT.
>> SOME PEOPLE MAY SAY THAT.
AT THE END OF THE DAY, I LIKE TO
SEE THIS TYPE OF BUILDUP, AS 
LONG AS THERE'S NO PUNCHES 
THROWN BECAUSE THEN THAT PUTS 
BOXING IN A BAD LIGHT AND PEOPLE
GO BOXERS DON'T KNOW HOW TO 
CONTROL THEMSELVES.
WE DON'T WANT TO SEE VIOLENCE.
NO TRANGLES, NOTHING BEING 
THROWN.
I THINK THEY'VE BEEN RESTRAINED,
HAVEN'T THEY?
THEY'VE BEEN OKAY UNDER THOSE 
CIRCUMSTANCES.
I QUITE LIKE THE BUILDUP.
YEAH, THERE'S BEEN TRASH TALK.
THEY'RE WAITING FOR REACTIONS 
WHEN THEY SAY CERTAIN THINGS.
FOR ME THAT'S OKAY.
ANYTHING REALLY GOES TO A 
CERTAIN DEGREE, BUT AS LONG AS 
NO PUNCHES ARE THROWN WHERE 
PEOPLE CAN POINT THE FINGER AND 
DAM BOXING, THAT'S WHAT I'M 
CONCERNED ABOUT.
I THINK THEY'VE DONE VERY WELL 
DOING THAT.
>> THE REFEREE, CONNOR McGREGOR 
STRIKES, HE MAKES CONTACT, IT'S 
FINE EVERY SINGLE TIME.
AND IT COMES OUT OF HIS PURSE 
WHICH IS SUBSTANTIAL, BY THE 
WAY.
WE MIGHT MOVE ON TO THAT IN THE 
NEXT FEW MOMENTS.
HOW CONCERNED ARE YOU WHAT HE 
WAS DISCUSSING WITH GABRIEL, 
THAT POTENTIAL DAMAGE, THE SPORT
OF BOXING SHOULD -- SHOULD 
CONNOR McGREGOR BEAT ALL THE 
ODDS AND TAKE OUT FLOYD 
MAYWEATHER, JR.?
>> IT WILL BE THE ULTIMATE -- I 
CAN'T THINK OF A BIGGER UPSET IN
BOXING HISTORY.
I REALLY CAN'T.
MAYBE MUHAMMAD ALI FOUGHT A 
WRESTLER MID '70s.
IT'S ALONG THOSE SCALES.
BUT I THINK IN TODAY'S BOXING IT
WOULD BE THE BIGGEST UPSET, THE 
PROBABLY LAST 40, 50 YEARS THAT 
I CAN RECALL.
I COULDN'T THINK OF ANOTHER, A 
BIGGER UPSET THAN PROBABLY A 
JAPANESE BOXER BEATING MUHAMMAD 
ALI.
>> THEY WERE WRESTLING ON THE 
FLOOR, THERE WERE LEGS 
EVERYWHERE.
THAT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN THIS 
TIME.
>> THE RULES WERE MODIFIED.
ANOKI'S NAME -- THE JAPANESE 
BOXER WAS ON THE FLOOR KICKING 
MUHAMMAD ALI'S SHINS.
IT WAS A 15-ROUND DRAW.
HE SAID HE WON, MUHAMMAD ALI 
WON.
THEY SAID THEY COULD MODIFY THE 
RULES.
NO WAY, IT IS HAS TO BE A BOXING
MATCH WHICH McGREGOR AGREED TO.
IT IS GOING TO BE DIFFICULT FOR 
HIM TO CONTROL THE EMOTIONS IF 
IT'S NOT GOING HIS WAY.
>> HE'S IN TIP TOP SHAPE.
H
HIS PHIS iYQUE IS SUPERB.
AGAINST NATE DIAZ, HE WAS 
PUFFING A BIT.
HE DIDN'T HAVE THE CARDIOMAYBE 
HE NEEDED.
HE'LL HAVE TO HAVE WORKED ON 
THAT PRIOR TO GETTING INTO THE 
RING WITH SOMEBODY AS DURABLE AS
FLOYD MAYWEATHER, JR. 
>> A GOOD OBSERVATION.
AT THE END OF THE DAY IT ISN'T A
BOXING MATCH.
YOU CAN'T COMPARE THE TWO IN 
TERMS OF DIFFERENCE.
>> WHAT'S THE THE DIFFERENCE?
>> WITH MMA THERE'S A LOT OF 
GRAPPLING ON THE FLOOR THAT I'VE
SEEN, ACTUALLY SEEN FROM THE 
BOUTS.
IT'S A DIFFERENT DISCIPLINE.
THERE IS BOXING ON THE FEET, BUT
I SHOULD IMAGINE THE MAJORITY OF
THE WORK IS ON THE FLOOR.
THAT TAKES A DIFFERENT -- IF YOU
LOOK AT THE PHYS iQ UE, THEY'RE 
DIFFERENT FROM PROFESSIONAL 
BOXERS.
THEY'RE MORE MUSCULAR IN THE 
LEGS, MORE MUSCULAR IN THE BODY 
BECAUSE THEY HAVE THE HOLD FOR 
BOXING.
THEY ARE BIG ON TOP.
SPEED OF MOVEMENTS ON THE FEET 
IS ABSOLUTELY CRUCIAL IN BOXING.
THAT'S WHAT FLOYD MAYWEATHER 
SPECIALIZED ON THE WHOLE OF HIS 
CAREER.
>> A LOT OF IT IS INSTINCTIVE AS
WELL.
I WONDER WHETHER CONNOR McGREGOR
BEING A DIFFERENT STYLE, UNIQUE 
CONTENDER MIGHT FLOW FLOYD 
MAYWEATHER OFF A LITTLE BIT 
BECAUSE HE IS EXPECTING 
SOMETHING THAT ISN'T GOING TO 
COME.
>> FOR ME WE KNOW WHAT FLOYD 
MAYWEATHER IS ABOUT.
HIS MOVE IS GREAT, SPEED, DECENT
POWER.
HE'S EXCEPTIONAL.
WHAT'S CONNOR McGREGOR GOING TO 
DO?
WE'VE NEVER SEEN HIM BOX.
IT'S A BIG QUESTION MARK.
WE'VE NEVER SEEN HIM BOX BEFORE.
>> WE'VE SEEN HIM PUNCH HARD.
>> WE'VE SEEN HIM PUNCH HARD, 
BUT NOT IN A BOXTION RING.
IT'S GOING TO BE DIFFERENT.
IS HE GOING TO TEAR AFTER 
MAYWEATHER AND TRY AND CLOSE HIM
DOWN?
THAT'S A TOUGH CRITIQUE TO USE, 
BUT BOXERS HAVE COME OUT SECOND 
BEST.
OR DOES HE WAIT A BIT ON THE 
OUTSIDE?
HE HAS A LONGER REACH, MAYBE JAB
TRYING TO OVERLEAD MAYWEATHER.
IT'S GOING TO BE VERY DIFFICULT.
THAT'S THE WAY OF BOXING 
MAYWEATHER.
YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER MAYWEATHER 
IS THE VERY, VERY BEST THERE IS.
SO IT'S GOING TO BE DIFFICULT 
WHICHEVER WAY HE CHOOSES, HE'S 
GOT PROBLEMS.
>> HOW MANY, HOW MANY REALLY CAN
SAY OVER THE COURSE OF THAT 
21-YEAR CAREER, 18 YEARS A WORLD
CHAMPION HAVE REALLY CAUGHT 
FLOYD MAYWEATHER CLEANLY?
>> BOXING WITH CASTILLO, THE 
GREAT MEXICAN, I REMEMBER 
CASTILLO CAME VERY CLOSE TO 
BEATING HIM.
OSCAR DE LA JOLLA MANY PEOPLE 
THOUGHT HE WON.
I THOUGHT OSCAR DE LA JOLLA DID 
WELL GOING FORWARD.
HE MISSED THE TARGET AND 
MAYWEATHER, THIS IS WHY 
MAYWEATHER IS SUCH A GREAT 
FIGHTER.
HE CAN BOX AT DISTANCE, BUT HE'S
VERY GOOD ON THE INSIDE.
HE'S VERY GOOD ON THE ROPES THE 
WAY HE BRINGS THAT LEFT SHOULDER
AROUND TO PROTECT HIS CHIN.
HE'S A DECEPTIVELY GOOD BOXER ON
THE INSIDE.
HERE WE GO, THE COMBAT SPORTS.
LOOK AT THE REACH.
WE'VE HAD BROOKLYN.
WE'VE HAD CRAZY NIGHTS IN LOS 
ANGELES.

A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS HERE AT 
THE MAYWEATHER-McGREGOR PRESS 
CONFERENCE HERE IN LONDON.
IF YOU ARE FROM THE MEDIA, RAISE
YOUR HAND AND YOU CAN ASK A 
QUESTION FOR FLOYD "MONEY" 
MAYWEATHER AND CONNOR McGREGOR 
HERE IN LONDON.
QUESTION?
>> GO AHEAD, SIR.
>> QUESTION FOR CONNOR McGREGOR.
CONNOR, HOW DO YOU ADDRESS THE 
DOUBTERS, THOSE WHO SAY YOU'VE 
GOT NO CHANCE?
>> I CAN'T HEAR YOU.
>> CONNOR, HOW DO YOU ADDRESS 
THE DOUBTERS, THOSE WHO SAY 
YOU'VE GOT NO CHANCE, HOW DO YOU
MAKE THEM BELIEVE?
>> I DO WHAT I SAY I'M GOING TO 
DO, BY SLEEPING THIS MAN INSIDE 
OF FOUR ROUNDS, THE SAME WAY I 
SILENCE THEM EVERY OTHER TIME.
>> HOW DO YOU THINK THIS CONTEST
WILL AFFECT YOUR LEGACY?
[CHEERING AND APPLAUDING] 
>> IN BOXING, IT'S ALL ABOUT 
TAKING CHANCES.
AND IN BOXING AND IN CONTACT 
SPORTS PERIOD, IT'S ABOUT TAKING
RISK.
IF YOU'RE GOING TO TAKE RISK, 
TAKE IT AGAINST THE TOP GUYS.
>> CONNOR, CONNOR, WHAT WAS YOUR
GOAL FOR THE WORLD TOUR, AND 
HAVE YOU ACCOMPLISHED IT NOW 
THAT IT'S OVER?
>> THE GOAL FOR THE WORLD TOUR 
WAS JUST, LOOK, IT'S A ONCE IN A
LIFETIME THING.
I MEAN, SOMETHING OF THIS 
MAGNITUDE.
I DON'T THINK YOU NEED A SPORT.
WE'VE SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS.
SO, THE NUMBER ONE GOAL WAS TO 
HAVE FUN WITH IT, TO ENJOY IT.
I MEAN, SO MANY SHOUTS FROM 
YESTERDAY AND THE TORONTO SCENE,
THE WHOLE TRIP HAS BEEN AMAZING.
EVEN NOW IT'S A -- THIS IS JUST 
A PRESS CONFERENCE.
IS IT EVEN A PRESS CONFERENCE?
THEY TRANSFORMED IT INTO 
SOMETHING DIFFERENT.
THE GOAL FOR ME WAS TO HAVE FUN.
SEE WHAT IT'S ABOUT.
SO, I LEARNED HE'S LIKE A LITTLE
KID.
I HAD FUN, I'M LOOKING FORWARD 
TO THE REAL WORK, THE FIGHT ON 
AUGUST 26.
>> MY QUESTION IS FOR KONA.
THROUGHOUT YOUR CAREER PEOPLE 
HAVE ALWAYS DOUBTED YOU.
HOW MUCH DO YOU ENJOY PROVING 
THEM WRONG?
HOW MUCH DO YOU ENJOY PROVING 
YOUR DOUBTERS WRONG?
HOW MUCH DO YOU ENJOY PROVING 
YOUR DOUBTERS WRONG?
>> IT GETS ME GOING.
IT'S WHAT MOTIVATES ME.
THEY ALL DOUBT ME.
THEY ALL TRY AND LAUGH AT 
EVERYTHING.
THEY TRY AND MOCK ME.
IT'S BEEN HAPPENING TO ME ME 
WHOLE CAREER.
IT'S SOMETHING THAT MOTIVATES ME
TO KEEP GOING, CONQUER THE 
UNCONQUERABLE.
ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE.
WE ALL CAN DO ANYTHING.
LIKE I SAID TO THE CROWD HERE, 
FIVE YEARS AGO I WAS IN A PLACE 
HERE IN LONDON CALLED THE HMV 
FORUM IN FRONT OF 500 PEOPLE.
THAT WAS FOUR YEARS AGO.  NOW 
I'M HERE IN AMERICA TO TAKE PART
IN THIS BILLION DOLLAR FIGHT.
I'M ABOUT TO SMOKE THIS VILLE.
I'M HERE WITH 20,000 PEOPLE IN A
PRESS CONFERENCE.
SO, IF THAT DOESN'T SHOW YOU 
THAT ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE, THEN 
I DON'T KNOW WHAT -- 
>> TIME FOR ONE MORE QUESTION, 
ONE MORE QUESTION.
CONNOR, WE KNOW YOU LOVE TO 
FIGHT.
WE KNOW YOU LOVE THE FAME.
AND WE SURE KNOW YOU LOVE THE 
MONEY.
BUT WHEN -- 
>> YOU KNOW ME.
>> WHEN YOU COME HERE TO AN 
EVENT LIKE THIS AND SEE THAT 
MORE THAN 5,000 OF YOUR FELLOW 
COUNTRY MEN HAVE FLOWN HERE JUST
FOR THIS EVENT TONIGHT, DOES IT 
HIT HOME NOW THAT NOT ONLY ARE 
YOU FIGHTING FOR THE THINGS YOU 
LOVE, BUT FOR THE COUNTRY OF 
IRELAND?
>> 100%.
MY HOME COUNTRY IS VERY DEAR TO 
MY HEART.
I MEAN, THE FANS, THE IRISH FANS
ARE -- EVERYONE AROUND THE WORLD
KNOWS ABOUT THE IRISH FANS.
THEY ARE NOT TO BE MESSED WITH.
FLOYD HAS NOT FOUGHT AN IRISH 
MAN BEFORE.
HE'S NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS.
IN THE RING HE WILL MAKE NO 
MISTAKE ABOUT IT.
IT'S A DIFFERENT ANIMAL WHEN THE
IRISH ARE IN TOWN.
THAT'S JUST THE TRUTH.
>> ALL RIGHT, LADIES AND 
GENTLEMEN, WE'LL SEE YOU IN LAS 
VEGAS.
FLOYD "MONEY" MAYWEATHER.
THE NOTORIOUS CONNOR McGREGOR.
AUGUST 26.
FROM THE T-MOBILE RING, BROUGHT 
TO YOU BY MAYWEATHER PROMOTIONS,
LONDON WILL SEE YOU COME FIGHT 
WEEK.
♪ 
♪
>>> WE WATCHED IT ALL.
EVEN HIGHER.
AND EDGIER THAN EVER BEFORE.
MAX EVENT.
MAY BE TOO MUCH FOR TIMES BUT 
IT'S BEEN THE BEST WWA ON 
OCCASION.
RUMORS THIS MORNING SUGGESTED 
THAT McGREGOR WOULD GET FINED IF
HE TOUCHED FLOYD MAYWEATHER.
HE DID THAT.
FLOYD MAYWEATHER BACKING AWAY TO
MAKE SURE HE DIDN'T -- ANYTHING 
MORE THAN WHAT IT WAS SUPPOSED 
TO BE TONIGHT.
CHOREOGRAPHED, WELL ORGANIZED 
AND THAT HAS BEEN ABSOLUTE HIT.
HE LOOKED LIKE ENJOYING HIMSELF.
CLOSER TO HOME.
KNOWS THIS CROWD WAS FOR HIM.
CALLED BIGGEST FIGHT IN HISTORY.
AND DETERMINED TO CELEBRATE 29th
BIRTHDAY.
LOOKS LIKE GABRIEL CLARK IS 
GETTING HOLD OF CONOR McGREGOR.
AND WE'LL HEAR THAT SHORTLY, 
THAT'S FOR SURE.
SAYING FOUR YEARS AGO HE FOUGHT 
IN LONDON AT HMP IN FRONT OF 
500.
WELL, THERE WAS -- ALL THAT 
MATTERED, FEW MORE IN HERE 
TONIGHT JUST FOR A PRESS 
CONFERENCE OR PRESS SHOW.
I MEAN, FLOYD MAYWEATHER JR., 
YOU KNOW HE'S A FANTASTIC 
BUSINESSMAN.
HE KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT HE IS 
DOING HERE AND HE'S USING THAT 
ANTAGONISM TO FUEL THE HOSTILITY
BETWEEN THE TWO.
>> TREMENDOUS SHOWMAN ISN'T HE, 
FLOYD MAYWEATHER?
GUY WHO HAS SEEN IT AND DONE IT 
ALL BEFORE.
BUT CREDIT AS WELL TO CONOR 
McGREGOR, PLAYED A GREAT PART.
TAKING PRESS CONFERENCE TO 
COMPLETELY DIFFERENT LEVEL.
NEVER EXPERIENCED ANYTHING LIKE 
THIS.
THAT WAS SOMETHING ELSE.
NEVER EXPERIENCED A PRESS 
CONFERENCE LIKE THAT.
THAT WAS ENTERTAINMENT SHOW IN 
ITSELF AND SUPERB TO BE HERE.
>> SOME MIGHT NOT LIKE IT.
TURN AROUND AND SAY THIS IS NOT 
WHAT BOXING IS ALL ABOUT, 
SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT, 
TAKING US INTO A REALM WE DON'T 
WANT TO GO INTO.
WHERE DO YOU STAND ON THAT?
>> ME?
I LOT OF INSULTS THROWN, AT 
TIMES THOUGHT A LITTLE BIT TOO 
MUCH BUT END OF THE DAY SHOWED 
RESTRAINT, NEVER LAID HAND ON 
EACH OTHER ASIDE FROM SLAP ON 
THE HEAD.
IT'S SELLING THE FIGHT.
SPORT ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY 
ISN'T IT?
CERTAINLY SOLD IT AGAIN. 
>> MAYWEATHER COMING ON TO 
CENTER STAGE CLEARING UP THE 
PLACE FOR THE FIGHT AGAINST 
CHRIS EWBANK JR.
STARTS 6:30 TOMORROW NIGHT AND 
TRYING TO SNAP UP MIKES TO TAKE 
AWAY FROM CONOR McGREGOR BUT 
HE'S TOO QUICK.
SEES IT AND KNOWS WHAT IS 
HAPPENING NEXT. 
>> VERY CLEVER.
MAYWEATHER GOT THE MIKES BUT 
McGREGOR GRABBED ONE, COME GET 
THEM OFF ME.
FLOYD MAYWEATHER WASN'T GOING TO
DO THAT.
BUT THAT WAS STAGED, RIPPED OFF 
THE McGREGOR STICKERS FROM THE 
CORNER PADS.
PRETTY GOOD.
>> INFORMATION FOR YOU.
WHILST LISTENING, EMERGED THAT 
DANA WHITE HAS REVEALED THAT 
CONOR McGREGOR HAS ASKED TO 
FIGHT UNBEATEN RUSSIAN IN RUSSIA
AFTER HE'S DONE WITH FLOYD 
MAYWEATHER JR., HE IS ALREADY 
PLANNING FOR THE FUTURE.
WHAT DOES THAT FUTUR
