Prepare to have your appetite whetted.

As if you weren't pumped enough for UFC 197, the promotion have perfectly timed a press conference ahead of the general release of tickets for the March 5 event. Conor McGregor will have the opportunity to repeat his show-stealing, thunder-thieving, spotlight-capturing exploits of last year's Go Big event when tonight's event gets underway at 7 PM Irish time. He'll be joined on stage by UFC lightweight champion Rafael dos Anjos who has categorically stated that he'll be taking no shit from the Irishman, especially if religion is brought into it. The women's bantamweight title is also on the line as Holly Holm aims to defend her belt against top contender Miesha Tate but we don't think either gal is going to exactly latch on to the trash talk. We can't say the same for Mr McGregor, though.
