The game – which took place on Sunday evening in the United States – came the day after the much-anticipated boxing match between Terence Crawford and Errol Spence Jr just across the road from Allegiant Stadium, which may have been the reason for a fighting theme to the familiar faces we spotted in the crowd.
Boxers Chris Eubank Jr and Joe Joyce were kind enough to say hello to MUTV before the game, as was fellow professional fighter Francis Ngannou, who made no secret about who he was supporting on the evening, donning our new adidas home shirt, while watching on in Nevada.
