Conor McGregor makes famous Wu-Tang Clan reference reacting to viral celebratory pint with Anthony Joshua
After registering an impressive knockout victory over Robert Helenius on Saturday night, Anthony Joshua was greeted by Conor McGregor with a celebratory pint at ringside.
McGregor posted on X (formerly Twitter):
"C.R.E.A.M @ForgedStout ."
In the picture from the original post from Matchroom Boxing, McGregor can be seen offering a sip of his Irish Forged Stout to Joshua.
The "C.R.E.A.M" in McGregor's post is a reference to the famous song of the same name from hip-hop collective Wu-Tang Clan, which is an acronym for 'Cash Rules Everything Around Me'.
Anthony Joshua's opponent Robert Helenius had filled in on short notice after original opponent Dillian Whyte failed a drug test. He put up a competitive fight at the O2 Arena on Saturday night before being hit by a thunderous right in the seventh round. Saudi Arabian officials were also present at the event, as they anticipate booking a bout between Joshua and Deontay Wilder.
