New Delhi: There is no professional sport which is without theatrics. When two of the biggest sellers in professional sports go head-to-head, which many have already billed as the biggest ever, there out to be some theatrics. That's what happened on Friday during the latest leg of Floyd Mayweather Jr vs Conor McGregor world press tour for next month's bout.

As expected the New York event was full of entertainment and hype. The Irish MMA legend appeared with floral trousers and a robe claimed to be made of polar bear fur, and bragged about his rights and how he became the first fighter in history to win two UFC titles simultaneously.

Then emerged, the 'undefeated' boxer, wrapped in Irish flag intentionally to undermine his opponent's nationality. Once in the stage, the American showered McGregor with dollar bills.
