“F*** Vegas,” said McGregor to SevereMMA.com in Dublin, as transcribed by Ireland’s The Independent. “F*** Vegas seriously. I want the east coast next. If they don’t give me Ireland, give me the east coast next. I’ll go back to Boston, I know they’re lobbying for New York, we had a great time when we went to Boston and the east coast, it’s not as far, it’s a five-hour flight.”
“I’ll go back to The O2 no problem or The 3Arena or the Point. I’ll go back there and fight, I don’t care if it’s nine thousand or whatever. I haven’t outgrown that. I haven’t outgrown my home f***ing town. I’m still f***ing here. I show up here every f*** day. I’m still me.”
Vegas this one. Vegas next one probably because I committed to UFC 200I I did commit to that, then f***ing east coast or Dublin.
