The bout between Anthony Joshua and Robert Helenius has finally come to a conclusion. Joshua has defeated ‘the Nordic Nightmare’ with a devastating K.O. in the seventh round of the matchup. However, what has now caught the attention of many fans is the post from DAZN Boxing. DAZN Boxing took to social media to share the picture of UFC legend Conor McGregor along with Ebanie Bridges at the event. In the caption of the post, they wrote, “Sláinte.”

The duo was seated together ringside and the bantamweight boxer can be seen promoting the Forged Irish Stout. However, what caught the attention of the fans on X is how close both of them were in the video, with McGregor’s hand over her shoulder. Earlier in the night, the female boxer had taken to social media to ask her fans to “Keep an eye out” for her. Moreover, ‘Mystic Mac’s’ appearance in the arena had already caused a huge commotion among the fans. However, as this post went viral, there was nothing stopping fans from bashing the former UFC champ and the current IBF female boxing world champion. Many fans even brought his Fiancé Dee Devlin into the conversation.
