For some fighters, the lack of public fans (and detractors) could be a disappointment. McGregor is not one of those fighters.

After all, the event will be broadcast live.

The event will take place on Broadway between 45th and 46th streets, where the Nurmagomedov / McGregor press conference will be broadcast live on Silvercast's 330-foot Mega-Zilla, the world's largest television screen.

UFC 229 will take place on October 6th at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
