Welcome to Midnight Mania!
Gifted comedian and impersonator Al Foran is known for his spot-on impression of seemingly every famous person. His Conor McGregor bit, especially, is excellent, as can be seen above. This performance came before the official fight announcement, while Floyd was doing a Q&A in the UK. Foran switches it up, much to the delight of the crowd, adding in Robert DeNiro and Mike Tyson for good measure.
Just listening to the audio, one could be forgiven for thinking this is Conor. It’s that good.

Bellator 180 is the rare Bellator event that is more appealing on paper than the UFC event.

As it turns out, Chael and Wanderlei did have something in the way of drama for us- Wanderlei shoves Chael just the right amount to remind people they are fighting this weekend.

Dana White schilling for Conor, inadvertently pointing out how far off the odds for this fight. This is exactly the kind of bout where the odds only reflects the ignorance of casual fans. (In other words, bet all disposable cash on Mayweather)
People talking shit that @TheNotoriousMMA doesn't have a chance vs Mayweather. Oddsmakers disagree!!! Odds for Conor vs other great boxers pic.twitter.com/tOmNsr4qNn

By this logic, how big must Nate Diaz be?

- McGregor got nominated for an 2017 ESPY because... because... what exactly has he done in 2017 besides end up in a treehouse, rent a lot of expensive cars and book a fight with Floyd Mayweather?
