Luckiest job at today’s megafight

Conor slams ‘dog****’ Floyd0:39

Boxing: UFC star Conor McGregor has ridiculed Floyd Mayweather for looking out of shape, calling him ‘blown out’ following weigh-in.

Jessica Harbour is one of the ring girls.

ANYONE lucky enough to find themselves inside T-Mobile Arena for today’s Conor McGregor-Floyd Mayweather fight should thank their lucky stars.

But some are luckier than others. Ringside seats at the biggest fight in history can set you back as much as $ 100,000.

Obviously several of those positions are filled by people actually working — judges, officials, doctors, etc.

But there’s one guy who has the best job at the fight.

He sits near to the corner of the ring next to the two most beautiful women in the room.

Is in his hands are giant numbered cards used to let the audience know which round we’re up to.

As the bell rings to mark the end of each three-minute period, old mate picks up his card, grabs the hand of one of the lovely ladies, and escorts them to the ring.

The girls are wearing stilettos so our gentlemanly friend helps them up the stairs and then holds the ropes open for them to duck under.

Rinse and repeat every three minutes.

We’re sure he probably helps out elsewhere — perhaps in a security role — but there isn’t a man on earth who wouldn’t sign up for this gig right now.

Here are the four women official beer sponsors Corona chose to make the crowd dizzy on Saturday night.

It is California love at first sight for this San Diego stunner.

The blonde beauty describes herself as a model employee who focuses on her work ethic as much as she does keeping fit and healthy.

The 26-year-old has done photo shoots for calendars, magazines and TV ads, as well as working the runway during her earlier years.

In March she announced she was due to get married on September 31 to her “best friend” in a gushing Instagram post.

KYRA KELI

New Yorker Keli aspires to be an actress.

And after gracing our screens at the final press conference this week, she looks right at home in front of the camera.

On her role in the biggest fight of the century, Kyra wrote: “Super honoured to be a ring card girl for this epic match. So grateful to be a part of such a big part of history!”

She is smitten with boyfriend Mark, with the pair regularly updating holiday pictures together.

The stunning Kumiko is sure to set pulses racing when walking in the ring Saturday night, but luckily the model is also a qualified nurse and will be able to help anybody who gets too excited.

Kumiko worked Paulie Malignaggi’s fight against Adrien Broner in 2013. Malignaggi sparred with McGregor in the build-up to the UFC star’s boxing debut.

With almost 25,000 Instagram followers and a number of years working in the sport, fans may recognise her already.

With a dad called Ralph Ring, it is no surprise Jordan is so good at her job.

But even for the veteran model, Saturday night’s historic scrap is another challenge for her.

“I was like in shock, because I definitely wanted to go to the fight,” the 25-year-old said. “I’m more excited than nervous. I’ve been in the ring several times. I love getting up there and just doing it. It’s really cool to be one of the four.

“I feel like my kids one day will hear about this. It’s really cool to be part of it.”
