Conor McGregor reacts after Ian Garry scores a first round KO in his Octagon debut at UFC 268
It did not take longer for Conor McGregor to react after fellow Irishman Ian Garry scored a first round knockout win in his Octagon debut at UFC 268.
Garry (8-0 MMA), also known as ‘The Future’, squared off with Jordan Williams (9-6 MMA) in a welterweight bout on tonight’s preliminary card at Madison Square Garden.
Ian Garry, a former Cage Warriors champion (like Conor McGregor), entered the fight with a ton of fight while sporting an undefeated record.
Meanwhile, Williams was hoping to snap a two-fight losing skid at tonight’s UFC 268 event in New York.
After a rocky first few minutes, Ian Garry was able to find a home for a big right hand in the final seconds of the opening round. That punch left Jordan Williams rocked and second strike put the former middleweight down for good.
