Wow…when Showtime microphones cut out, we thought we’d never hear this…
Currently locked in the middle of a four-day world tour, Conor McGregor and Floyd Mayweather are scheduled to appear in New York tonight. As thrilling as last night’s instalment was, it didn’t start all that well on the first presser.
Among the biggest errors were broadcast glitches, loss of sound and just some terrible trash talk. Although they managed to claw it back with a wild show in Toronto, fans in Los Angeles didn’t get the best of both men.
One particular moment that led to confusion was Mayweather and McGregor’s final staredown in LA.
Nobody Can Hear You, Guys!
It looked as though Showtime and the UFC had missed out on some prime content. While McGregor and Mayweather spat heat at each other, fans were left literally guessing what was being said.
Until now, as we can reveal the full audio and video of that intense staredown. McGregor makes some heavy threats, and is that Floyd’s voice cracking?
Judge for yourself:
That was intense! With two more stops, New York and finally London, we can expect much more havoc from these natural entertainers. Here’s some of their best quotes so far:
Best Bits
“I just want to speak to all the boxing pu**ies, all the supposed experts,” McGregor said. “You’re f*cking crazy if you think this man stands a chance. His head is too small! One shot is all it takes me, check the facts, I bounce heads off the canvas and dribble that sh*t! He tip-tap-toes to a decision. He has never even fought a day in his life. He’s a runner. He’s boxing’s biggest b*tch!”
“All these rules, all these restrictions, it doesn’t phase me. It amuses me. The gloves – they have to be 10 ounces. 154 pounds, he has never fought at 154 – I think he has only fought at 154 maybe once. He wants the gloves up, no problem. Give him the gloves up. I’ll wear 10 ounces. No Mexican-made gloves. Okay, no problem. No gloves made out of horse hair. Alright, no problem. I don’t give a f*ck. We’re only wearing gloves in our game about five years. So I don’t give a sh*t about gloves or any of that. I’m just enjoying it. It’s funny to me, all these rules. All I need is a gum shield, line me up to the ring, and I’m good to go.”
Mayweather:
“I still got it! Point to the easy work then! I don’t give a f*ck if it’s the ring, or if it’s the octagon, put me in there and I’mma kick ass! I’m gonna knock this bitch out, that’s right you sit there quiet you little bitch.”
“You can get it right now! Y’all want me to get it right now? Nah we gonna save that for the payday.”
“I do? Let me see the bag. Yeah, he was right, the bag got books, and we gonna show you what the books look like. If you believe in yourself like you say you believe in yourself, bet your whole fight check, you bitch.”
