Bunce: McGregor converted neutrals at official arrivals

Boxing commentator Steve Bunce says Conor McGregor converted neutrals watching the official arrivals for his fight against Floyd Mayweather in Las Vegas.

Bunce said: "He was doing everything you're not meant to do when you're on the very cusp of a $700m fight,

"Short of taking a baby and kissing a baby and posing for selfies, he milked it and suddenly they (the crowd) came alive.

"I tell you what he did there, he converted any neutrals in that crowd."

UK radio listeners will be able to hear live commentary of Floyd Mayweather's fight against Conor McGregor from Las Vegas on Saturday on 大象传媒 Radio 5 live.

There will also be live text commentary on the 大象传媒 Sport website and app.
