Conor McGregor’s profile has sky rocketed in the past year and he been just as impressive in the Octagon. And he’s cocky, just ask him:
Am I cocky? Hell yes I’m cocky, the 6’1” fighter told us. Even when I was a kid, everything I had was the best. Even though I grew up poor and had a shitty car, to me my car was the most amazing car on the road, my clothes were the most amazing clothes a man could wear. But that doesn’t mean I’m satisfied; it means I want the best.
McGregor is the voice the UFC needs, a smart, smug character who brings a crackling, antagonistic WWE-style personality to a sport so devoid of true talkers. Giving people shit is one of my best tactics,” he says. “But I back it up.
After the fight ended, McGregor, adrenaline visible in his wide eyes, bounded over the octagon and sprinted towards Jose Aldo, whom he’ll be fighting in Belfast. As trainers and others held McGregor back, he barked and threatened Aldo who, to his credit, smirked confidently at the Irishman’s antics. When the two face off in May, it’ll likely be the largest UFC event in recent memory. And we expect McGregor will have a lot more to say about it.
I can promise it’ll be one hell of a show, he said.
