OK. I was in Dublin. This crowd is loud. But it doesn’t even come close to touching the electricity of the Dublin walkout, obviously.

McGregor into full mount. Siver covered up, took a few shots and that was that. Herb Dean called it.

Conor McGregor TKO’s Dennis Siver in Round 2 then jumps the cage to confront Jose Aldo, who just smiles and laughs. What a scene.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how you sell a title fight.
