The atmosphere is electric as fans express their emotions.

Conor McGregor and fans appreciate Molly McCann’s prowess

Molly McCann defeated Diana Belbita in the very first round. ‘Meatball’ poured down heavy elbow blows in the last 10 seconds of the first round, at first it felt as if Belbit͏a might survive the heavy firings but McCann knew something was off, and soon enough before Belbit͏a could think of anything ‘Meatball’ locked an armbar and with just one second left to the round, Belbita tapped out and McCann stood there victorious.

After the fight, McCann took to her Instagram handle to add a kind message to severely injured Irish fighter, Ryan Curtis. McCann uploaded a series of pictures of her teammates and captioned it as  “I’ll get back to youse all tomorrow. But @chaoscurtis that was for you lad. Your flag, your shirt.” Her gesture got a ton of appreciation from the fans including the former dual-weight champion, Conor McGregor.

McCann has risen to be a new challenger to Grasso, After defeating Diana Belbita, McCann made it clear she is eyeing only one thing and that is the gold belt. “Today I forgive myself and I can move forward. Say less do more, say less do more. The plan was to be a world champion at 125 but that didn’t work out.” roared McCann after the fight.
