New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr has revealed he took inspiration from UFC superstar Conor McGregor’s historic win at Madison Square Garden on Saturday night.

Conor McGregor celebrates hoists his two UFC world titles after his KO victory over Eddie Alvarez I kind of had some late inspiration, Beckham Jr explained after the game. I went to the UFC fight and I went there to watch McGregor and just a guy who is very strong in his beliefs and sure enough, he backs it up every time.Just sitting there watching him do his thing gave me more motivation. I usually go to things like that for inspiration. I like seeing guys in their atmosphere.

My mind is just wired differently, he added.So when I am sitting there watching him and I had this blank stare on my face because there are just so many thoughts going through my head, so I definitely got a lot of inspiration going there and watching him win, double champ and sure enough we came out and we won today, so it has been a pretty good week.

NEW YORK -- The New York Rangers cant lose. The Vancouver Canucks cant win.On Tuesday night at Madison Square Garden, nothing has to give.The Rangers have won five in a row, scoring at least five goals in each victory. As was the case in many of their victories this season, the Rangers (10-3-0) won with balance Sunday, as five players scored in a 5-2 victory against the Winnipeg Jets.One of those goal-scorers was rookie Pavel Buchnevich, who scored artfully on a breakaway for his second goal of the season. The third-round pick found the going tough to start the season but is showing signs of getting comfortable, which potentially means another dangerous scorer for the NHLs top offensive team.Hes just getting more and more comfortable with everything, Rangers goaltender Henrik Lundqvist said to the New York Daily News. Coming here from Russia, its a big change culture-wise and language and the way we play the game. So hes just getting more comfortable. Hes going to be a great player here. Fun to watch him play, too.As weird as it sounds, the Rangers didnt feel great after their latest five-goal performance. The game was tied 2-2 midway through the second period before the Rangers blitzed the Jets for three quick goals, then held on tight during the third period and didnt muster a shot on net.That is becoming normal for the Rangers -- scoring five goals, winning by three and not feeling as if they played well.We definitely have got to be careful of starting to cheat and getting away from the way we want to play, Rangers defenseman Marc Staal told the Daily News oon Sunday.dddddddddddd I thought for stretches last night and tonight we started stretching the zone a little bit and started looking for things that werent there. So as a group weve got to make sure we buckle back down, start playing the way we need to play defensively to create those opportunities in the right way.The Canucks, meanwhile, are in a tailspin that has no signs of ending.After starting 4-0-0, Vancouver has lost nine consecutive games, including a 4-2 defeat to the New York Islanders on Monday night. So not only are the Canucks playing some of the worst hockey in the NHL, but they get to play a Rangers team that has been off since Sunday.The Canucks held a brief early lead against the Islanders and were tied at 2 in the third period before the Islanders struck for two goals in less than two minutes to put the game away.First two periods, we played good hockey, Canucks goaltender Ryan Miller said. Then they get weird bounces and take the game. Its frustrating right now.The Canucks (4-8-1) are 0-8-1 in their past nine games. The last time they lost 10 in a row was from Oct. 23-Nov. 11, 1997, so it is almost the 18-year anniversary of their futility.Three of their goals, our guys go to block them and they end up in favorable situations, Miller said to the Vancouver Sun. We have to find ways to rise up when games unfold that way.The way the Rangers are playing lately, overcoming bounces and a superior opponent wont be easy. ' ' '
