McGregor Coach John Kavanagh Has Pulled The Best April Fool’s Prank Yet

We've pretty much had it up to here with April Fool's Day jokes now lads.

But this one from Coach John Kavanagh still got a giggle out of us.

He took to Twitter this morning to announce the much-discussed and anticipated Conor McGregor vs Floyd Mayweather bout had been "confirmed".

Finally the news is confirmed. Conor v Mayweather. Let's do this! ????????????

And when he sent this tweet a while later, the ball dropped for all...

Slightly unusual rule set. Me and conor v him and his dad. Hell in a Cell, no holds barred. My prediction? PAIN.
