Fans invited to Thursday’s Khabib vs. Conor news conference viewing party in Times Square
The UFC is calling it the biggest fight in its history, and if you’re in the New York area this week you can get a taste of what’s going down next month.
UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov and former two-division champ Conor McGregor meet in the UFC 229 main event at T-Mobile ARena in Las Vegas on Oct. 6.
On Thursday, the fighters will get face to face for the first time at a news conference at Radio City Music Hall in New York City. And since you can’t be inside the building to see the action – it’s closed to the public – the UFC is setting up a viewing party in nearby Times Square.
The news conference will be simulcast on the “Mega-Zilla” Silvercast digital screen on Broadway between 45th and 46th streets. It’s the biggest television in the world, which seems appropriate for the occasion.
The event takes place Thursday at 5 p.m. Eastern.
Nurmagomedov (26-0 MMA, 10-0 UFC) was the target of a vicious attack on a UFC 223 fighter bus that resulted in McGregor (21-3 MMA, 9-1 UFC) reaching a plea agreement on assault charges. Now they’re finally set to fight.
