The fans in attendance giving it up for the two fighters, who have really let it all hang out in the last minute or so!
Centura rushes in with a sloppy looking punch
and McGregor scores with a counter punch that sends Centura to the canvas! McGregor smells blood - he's punishing Centura with more strikes and the ref has stopped it! Centura has no idea where he is - he's tackled the ref... oh dear, poor guy, the crowd is in hysterics!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 4:46 of round 2, we have a winner by way of TKO (Strikes). Conor McGregor !
An out of breath Conor McGregor thanked his loyal fans in his post fight interview, giving them credit for his success over the course of his career.
