We can’t wait for this fight.
Conor McGregor’s much anticipated showdown with Jose Aldo in Las Vegas is going to be arguably the biggest Irish sporting event of the summer; July 11 can’t come quickly enough.
Just as they did following McGregor’s victory over Dennis Siver in Boston in January, the pair came face to face in Rio de Janeiro today in a promotional event for the fight at UFC 189.
Even though they were on Aldo’s turf, McGregor didn’t look intimidated when the pair faced off in Rio, where the atmosphere was something to behold.
Further proof that McGregor was enjoying himself came in the press conference, when he talked about owning this town, blasted Aldo’s past opponents and came out with lines like: “The short story, I’m going to bang a left hand right down the pipe and break his nose.”
Yep, this one is going to be a belter alright.
