On Tuesday, the first press conference for arguably the most highly anticipated fight in combat sports history took place.
In Los Angeles, thousands of fans and media filled the Staples Center to watch Floyd “Money” Mayweather and UFC Lightweight Champion Conor McGregor go face-to-face for the very first time.
Neither McGregor or Mayweather held back during the press conference. While many people expected McGregor to have the advantage when it came to verbal exchanges, Mayweather had no issues trading insults with the cocky UFC champion.

This was the first of four press conferences scheduled to take place this week. Over the span of four days, Mayweather and McGregor will travel to four different cities in three different countries. After L.A, the two elite fighters will travel to Toronto, Brooklyn, and London.
