McGregor: F–k everybody who’s doubting me
Conor McGregor: “There will always be something to try and discredit me. But at the end of the day, cash beats credit every day of the week.”
Conor McGregor is undefeated in the UFC, and has finished most of his opponents, but pundits like to criticize the fact that he hasn’t fought anyone with a real wrestling pedigree. On the conference call for UFC 189, McGregor addressed questions about his ability to defeat a wrestler and anyone who is questioning his ability or why he’s in the title fight in the first place:
“They’ll always say something,” McGregor said. “Let me tell you, because you sound like one of those people, they’ll always say something to try and discredit what I am doing here. There’s always going to be questions. Every fight there’s a question. Now it’s the wrestler question. Then it’s going to be the interim question. Then when I smoke Chad, he’s only had two weeks.
“There will always be something to try and discredit me. But at the end of the day, cash beats credit every day of the week. And that’s what I’m here for. I’m here to shut this man down, break that pay-per-view record and cash them big fat checks. And f–k everybody who’s doubting me.”
