Fury vs Wilder 2: Conor McGregor 'honoured' as Proper 12 Whiskey secures ring slot

McGrgeor has spoken of his admiration for Fury, who is looking to become a two-time heavyweight champion tonight.

But he also refuted claims that he’s ever spoken to Fury about potentially training the Gyspy King for an MMA fight.

“Tyson keeps saying we have spoken and that I have said that I would train him but I have never spoken to Tyson in my life,” he said.

“I don’t know why he is saying that but it is not a bad little story so I let it roll.
