NEW YORK -- Clean. Precise. One-sided. Historic. New York saw it all from Conor McGregor.On Saturday night, McGregor (21-3) became the first fighter in mixed martial arts history to hold multiple UFC titles at the same time. Already the featherweight champion, McGregor knocked out?Eddie Alvarez?at 3:04 of the second round to become the lightweight champion at UFC 205 at Madison Square Garden. It was the first UFC event held in the venue.One of the most staggering achievements in the history of the sport was made even more so by how effortless McGregor made it look. Alvarez never had a chance.Theyre not on my level, McGregor said. Youve got to have size, reach, length. Youve got to have some attributes. If you dont, I will rip your head off. Thats what I say every time.The final sequence began with Alvarez (28-5), a former Bellator MMA champion with one of the most decorated résumés of all time at 155 pounds, overcommitting on a punch.McGregor, 28, slipped the punch and dropped Alvarez with a quick combination. Referee John McCarthy gave Alvarez a chance to recover, but it was clear he was finished, and it didnt take much more offense from McGregor for McCarthy to step in and stop the fight.McGregor scored three knockdowns in the first three minutes of the fight. The first came about one minute in, courtesy of his infamous left hand. Despite being dropped three times in the first round, Alvarez, a Philadelphia native, somehow bounced to his feet after each and appeared to recover his balance quickly.The onslaught from McGregor just never stopped. The only time Alvarez managed to slow things down came in the second round, when he was able to pin McGregor along the fence for a short period of time.McGregor announced at the postfight news conference he is expecting the birth of his first child in early 2017. He intends to take a break until then, and expects the new owners of the UFC at WME-IMG to reach out to him in the meantime.Have this baby, take a little bit of time and see what way I feel after that, McGregor said. Theyve got to come talk to me now. No one has come talk to me since the sale [in July] happened -- as a businessman.Who owns the company? People have shares of the company, celebrities. Conan OBrien owns the UFC these days. Wheres my share? Wheres my equity? If Im the one bringing this, theyve got to come talk to me. Thats all I know. You want me to stick around and keep doing what Im doing? I want what I deserve. What Ive earned.UFC president Dana White seemed to agree with McGregor about his special status after Saturday nights performance.This aint hype. This is real, man, White said. Everybody said that the kink in his armor was wrestling, and when he meets a guy who can wrestle hes in big trouble -- not one takedown tonight. Defended everything.You know, Eddie Alvarez was saying Santa Claus isnt real. Santa Claus is back, you know what I mean? The guy is special. And whats next? Well let him enjoy this moment. Im gonna enjoy this moment. And well talk business later.Ron Duguay Rangers Jersey .
