PA/Instagram/greg_tmtConor McGregor may have lost the fight of the century last night but it didn’t stop him partying the night away at a riotous sold out after party.
The party took place at the Encore Beach Club – on the Las Vegas Strip – and you’d be forgiven for thinking it was The Notorious who’d beaten Mayweather with the way he was celebrating.
McGregor arrived at the club in customary style just before 3am and was wearing an amazing paisley suit draped in the Irish flag.
The gallant loser took to the stage to address his legion of fans, many of whom had travelled all the way from Ireland to see him fight, before dancing the night away.
And while tickets to the fight were outrageously expensive enterance to the after party was far more affordable costing just $20-$75.
McGregor must have been feeling generous, which isn’t surprising considering he’d just earned $30 million for half an hours work.
Seriously this has to be seen to be believed:

As for McGregor’s victorious rival, Floyd ‘Money’ Mayweather, he spent the evening in his strip club ‘Girl Collection’.
Possibly the seediest name for a strip club I’ve ever heard…
More of a concept than a journalist, Tom Percival was forged in the bowels of Salford University from which he emerged grasping a Masters in journalism.
Since then his rise has been described by himself as ‘meteoric’ rising to the esteemed rank of Social Editor at UNILAD as well as working at the BBC, Manchester Evening News, and ITV.
He credits his success to three core techniques, name repetition, personality mirroring, and never breaking off a handshake.
