How best can one describe the moment when the hottest music property came through to give an added hype to a fight? Conor McGregor has God on his side—the 6 God, that is.
On Friday night, the former two-division champion returned to Las Vegas’ T-Mobile Arena for the UFC 229 ceremonial weigh-in. And guess who was standing by the Notorious’ side? His good friend and unofficial hype man Drake.
The Canadian rapper hit the stage wrapped in an Irish flag. Moments after McGregor weighed in at 154.5 lb, Drizzy congratulated the fighter with a quick dap. Check out the scene below.
