Whereas last night, and I've been to so many press conferences where we're all looking around, we all have to ask the Crow Park question, even though we know the answer.
But last night was the first time he actually took the onus upon himself and said, I need to make this happen.
And so now, and again, for the first time, I actually think there is a chance because to this point, I thought it was a pipe dream.
Okay.
Yeah, like, and another elephant in the room is obviously the context of Irish professional boxing and the security costs weren't plucked out of thin air.
Like there's considerations to be borne out in terms of what's gone before.
But Croke Park is an expensive venue.
And Conor will know, even with music acts coming to Ireland, insurance costs and all, we're not competing very well on that level.
So there's a few interesting strands to it because I was chatting on the podcast last week about the greater combat sports industry
Gambit and the battles that are going on there in and it's not lost on Eddie Hearn that of his like three pillars and I wouldn't have them on the same level ability wise, but it was Anthony Joshua, Katie Taylor, Connor Ben.
Connor Ben has been nicked out of his back pocket.
He didn't see it coming.
Katie Taylor's about to retire and Anthony Joshua might not fight again.
So this is almost like proof of concept for him to put on this Katie Taylor event and show the next crop of Olympic medalists.
You know, look what I can do for you.
Dana White's not doing that for you.
I don't know, but he doesn't know.
He doesn't know.
In all seriousness.
Just saying it.
