Former UFC champion Conor McGregor took to social media to praise Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder following their instant classic in Las Vegas - but also took a shot at rival Dustin Poirier in the process.
After dragging himself off the canvas twice, Fury knocked out Wilder in the 11th round to retain his WBC belt, in what was an epic finish to their trilogy of fights.
McGregor praised both men for their 'honourable showing', calling them both winners.
The Irishman also took a swipe at foe Poirier for the way he celebrated during the duo's own trilogy fight at UFC 264. 'The Diamond' defeated McGregor via doctor's stoppage after the Dubliner broke his leg at the end of the first round.
"Great fight that", McGregor wrote on Twitter. "Both warriors, both winners. Hard to not be impressed with Deontay there. Against the much larger man and almost got it done. Great fight. Fair play both men there, very enjoyable fights they have had together. Respect."

"Their skill levels are unique but very close", he continued. "A great heavyweight trilogy that was. I love when it gets set for certain and both have an honourable showing. Not the fam in the ring fake celebrating after a freak injury etc etc. You know the gig, God bless the real in this world."
Other UFC stars also took to social media to show their admiration for the fight.
