“We’re different, ladies and gentlemen,” he told viewers as Bintiff landed an enormous shot that bloodied her rival. McGregor then implored Ruelas, who had scored a knockdown the previous round, to “get tough”, but she was forced to the bottom.
He insisted that she be given time to rise up, but she opted to not beat the count and the fight was stopped. “Wow, what a comeback,” he said of the victory. “She got dropped with an enormous left hook and hurt her with one other one.
“Then she comes back and stops her opponent next round. Mental fortitude, that was incredible that was. Have a look at her, completely happy out. Wow!”
