The last day of the publicity tour for the superfight between Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor had some surprises in store for London fans. This time, instead of a stage, the event was held in a boxing ring and a table was placed in the center of the stage to house the fighters and the show's promoters. As expected, the two athletes once again exchanged provocations, but the London fans stole the show, with chants in honor of the UFC champion and provocations towards the North American boxer.

Again, McGregor spoke first and distributed insults and provocations to Floyd Mayweather, Stephen Espinoza (Showtime executive, responsible for selling pay-per-views of the superfight) and the boxer's bodyguards, who had surrounded him the day before, in New York. At one point, the Irishman even grabbed Mayweather's head, who did not react. Dana White, president of the UFC and also present at the event, censored his champion.

“Four years ago, I was fighting here in London in front of just 500 people. And in six weeks, I'll be quadrupling my fortune for half a fight. Let's be honest, if we can't throw kicks, elbows or knees, then it's half the fight. He could be enjoying his retirement as an undefeated fighter, but how did they let me come in here and finish him off? They got greedy and now when I finish Floyd Mayweather, all these guys are going to fall”, commented McGregor, much celebrated by the fans.

Knowing that he was at a disadvantage with the London fans, he preferred to just insult his future opponent, guaranteeing that he would knock him out. At the end of his speech, the American also tried to sing “Congratulations” to McGregor, who turns 29 this Friday (14), but without success.

“I will never lose, you b…Planet Earth is my ring. On August 26th, I'm going to finish you off, you bastard... Don't worry, I won't touch you until the day of the fight. Dana White, you and I own it all. We don't need to wear suits. I just think it's funny that you're here with this loser. But I understand you. You’re the pimp and he’s your b…”, fired Mayweather.
