Front page of BBC news, too. Whatever happened to the days of consideration for those who didn't want to know the results and catch up?

Sport isn't Game of Thrones

Eh?

Remember things like "if you don't want to know the results, look away now"? It's not an odd concept.

Sadly the idea of not giving results away in a headline has gone out the window in the clickbait era.

I don't think this has ever been true of boxing.

I knew if I went into work today and didn't stay up to watch the fight it would be spoiled regardless if I shut down my phone/social media or not. So I went to bed early and set my alarm for 5:00am. Went back to bed for 6:00am after the fight was over. Felt a bit tired in work but mostly I was okay. I did hear one group of customers chatting about the fight, so it would have be spoiled for me had I not stayed up.

I thought McGregor was some sort of punching / knockout machine with all the pre fight talk from him and all those with MMA connections? He was strawberry floating embarrassing, awful punching technique and feather fisted. It was a terrible fight.
