Conor McGregor and Tyson Fury react to Daniel Dubois vs Anthony Joshua
by Robert Summerscales · Mail OnlineConor McGregor clearly enjoyed watching Daniel Dubois dismantle Anthony Joshua at Wembley Stadium on Saturday evening.
Dubois knocked out Joshua in the fifth round to retain his IBF world heavyweight title in front of 96,000 fans in London.
One of those fans was UFC legend McGregor, who was caught on camera excitedly jumping from his seat when Dubois floored AJ for the final time.
McGregor watched the fight with an unlit cigar in his mouth as he sat ringside alongside wife Dee Devlin.
Joshua hit the deck multiple times in what was perhaps the most comprehensive defeat of his professional career.

The crowd was fairly split, with both British fighters receiving plenty of support.
However, McGregor was seemingly rooting for Dubois and his ringside behaviour sparked plenty of reaction on social media.
One tweet read: 'Conor McGregor's reaction to Daniel Dubois knocking down Anthony Joshua is too good.'
Another hailed McGregor as 'the best entertainer'.
However, a third comment read: 'Imagine if your seat was next to McGregor? I'd leave.'
McGregor was sat just behind Tyson Fury at Wembley.
Footage captured moments after the fight was over showed McGregor shouting and swaying, while Fury was much less animated.
Fury turned to say something to McGregor, who responded by patting himself on his chest.
Indeed, Fury stormed away waving his hands moments after the fight was over.
Some believe that Fury was miffed the AJ's defeat reduces the prospects of him and Fury fighting for a huge payday in a fight many fans have clamoured for.
'Fury’s reaction at the end there almost signalled that he knows we’re never getting him vs Joshua,' one fan wrote.
