Major Dissapointment for Conor McGregor at Chris Eubank Jr. vs. Liam Smith as Teammate Gets “Demolished” in First Round, Fans React

The Eubank vs. Smith 2 card saw Chris Eubank Jr. and Liam Smith face off in a highly anticipated clash. In the second edition of the fight, Eubank Jr. got back at Smith after the results of their first bout, turning the tides in his favor. However, another fight on the undercard was also awaited by fans as it involved a teammate of the UFC Superstar Conor McGregor. The fight saw Dylan Moran, the Irishman’s sparring partner go up against Florian Marku.

The welterweight bout that marked a return after one year for both fighters went down much quicker than fans anticipated. The Albanian boxer quickly outboxed Moran, sealing his victory at a stunning pace. The fight, which was preceded by a ton of trash-talking, didn’t really last as long as fans might have liked. However, the fans did pounce on the occasion to send a message to Conor McGregor.

Florian Marku beats member of team Conor McGregor in style

Florian Marku out-punched ‘The Real Deal’ Dylan Moran in the very first round of their boxing match. Although the fighter predicted to achieve the result in 6 rounds, the actual outcome was much quicker. 54 seconds into the fighter, the referee waved, drawing the bout to a stunning but immediate close. The display clearly showed that McGregor’s sparring partner was no match for the Albanian.

Right out of the gate, Marku kept close to Moran, not allowing him the time or the space to find his footing in the match. Moran had little to no responses to Marku’s onslaught. Towards the finishing moments of the fight, Marku kept at ‘The Real Deal’s heels with a furious volley of punches that were unanswered by Moran. After making quick work, Marku celebrated in style with his team. Meanwhile, fans took to X to make their feelings about the fight known.
