All eyes were on the first Mayweather/McGregor press conference, but did you notice that Conor was getting a dig in even at subliminal levels?

First we got McGregor calling attention to the fact that Mayweather seemed a little more casual to the event than usual - "He’s in a fucking tracksuit, he can’t even afford a suit anymore!". https://twitter.com/temirules23/status/884897185388777472 And then everyone got caught up in Mayweather's comment on a particular type of glove, but you might have missed the teeny, tiny, but still very pointed statement that McGregor was making with his suit. You know the way they say a picture paints a thousands words? Well this one doesn't. This one only has two. It takes a lot of work to antagonise someone in such a way that it also doubles as an eye exam. https://twitter.com/bokamotoESPN/status/884898455805509632 https://twitter.com/DylansFreshTake/status/884904502410792961 https://twitter.com/BiIlionaires/status/884920718550544384 https://twitter.com/b_808knight/status/884903108068769792
