Sergey Kovalev just brought a chair to Conor McGregor and told him to 'Sit down.' This is nuts at ringside. #boxing #ConlanDebut

OK @TheNotoriousMMA just got right in my face: "You're the boxing guy! Watch me take over boxing. I am #boxing." OK then. Good luck!

Conor always got on a tailor made suit fit to perfection. One of the best dressed athletes

He's got Manny Robles as a trainer and TR does some of the best match making. He'll reach a high status level over the next two years whether or not he's a true top-level talent.


Given the atmosphere and his pro debut, maybe some jitters.

Conlan grades himself an F but was extremely grateful for the night as a whole.

"I don't think I'll ever forget this any day of my life."

Kovalev trying so hard to be a fan almost got kicked in the head for getting in Conor's way of watching the fight.

he was clearly nervous, loading up on right hands from the first round. He settled in during the third and did some nice work along the ropes. There's talent there and appears to have the drive as well...that's a good place to start for any debuting fighter.
