Don’t feel too bad for Conor McGregor after he lost the fight to Floyd Mayweather — the Irish MMA star is making millions more from a two-year residency at Wynn Las Vegas.
McGregor, sporting a black eye, kicked his residency off post-fight late Saturday at Wynn’s Encore. His deal is to host four after-fight parties at the resort’s XS Nightclub and Encore Beach Club.
Fresh off the fight, McGregor, wearing a fitted blue paisley suit and sunglasses, “was dancing about the stage and rapping along to Remy Ma,” as well as mugging for photos with Orlando Bloom, said a witness.
Acting like a winner, McGregor knocked back a $120,000 bottle of Champagne and draped himself in the Irish flag.
Meanwhile, Mayweather arrived in a new $4 million bright-red Bugatti convertible to his official fight party, held at his own strip club, called Girl Collection.
The champ posted an Instagram story for his nearly 18 million followers showing exotic dancers on the stage while money rained down from the air. Mayweather reportedly doled out free drinks to his entourage, while regular folk had to pay $500 to get inside.
Over at XS in Vegas, Leo DiCaprio, Kevin Connolly and Adrien Brody partied with a bevy of babes.
Sean “Diddy” Combs threw his own bash at Lavo Las Vegas. Nas and Ashanti, who had both dined at TAO earlier in the evening, as well as Cedric the Entertainer, were all seen partying the night away as DJ M.O.S. manned the decks.
Combs joined Nas’ table on arrival, where the two artists toasted to the night and danced along as DJ M.O.S. pumped out some of their biggest hits. Also joining the party was former football player Michael Irvin, DJ Big Tigger, boxer Jesse Vargas, The Fugees’ Pras Michel and hip-hop artist Eric B.
Later that night, Cedric the Entertainer headed to Marquee Nightclub in The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas, where he kept the night going with seven friends at a VIP table as DJ Vice headlined the night.
Meanwhile, over at TAO Nightclub in Vegas, newly single boxer Amir Khan was seen at a dance floor table with friends.
