Conor McGregor was among the many high-profile celebrities who made an appearance at the highly publicized boxing match between Ryan Garcia and Gervonta Davis. Despite his presence, McGregor had earlier expressed reservations about the matchup, demonstrating his investment in the sport.
As the fight unfolded, it was the 24-year-old Mexican who suffered the first loss of his career, succumbing to a 7th-round TKO against the powerful ‘Tank’ Davis. Meanwhile, McGregor took the opportunity to showcase his newly launched Proper No. Twelve Irish Apple whiskey, posing for a picture with it at the T-Mobile arena in Las Vegas.

However, a rematch with Floyd Mayweather, against whom McGregor lost via a TKO in the 10th round back in 2017, does not seem to be in the cards. Even the Mayweather Productions CEO expressed interest in the rematch, but McGregor and the fans seem to have little appetite for it.
On the MMA front, McGregor is gearing up to make a comeback later this year, with plans to face Michael Chandler in a pay-per-view bout. So, a boxing match is far from sight for ‘Mystic Mac’.
