Conor McGregor stormed into the UFC impressive debut back in April knocking out Marcus Brimmage. He will now carry that momentum into Boston where he faces Max Halloway as a replacement for Andy Ogle, and if you ask him, he’s the real main event:
McGregor’s primary goal each time out is to steal the show — much like he did with his “Knockout of the Night” over Brimage — regardless of who is standing across the cage from him.
He broke it down on his recent appearance on “The MMA Hour:”
“The opponent does not come into the equation. This is my spot. The Irish are coming home era. Coming to Boston. The Irishmen are coming home to their native land, Boston, United States. The opponent does not come into the equation. I am the main event. If you stick me in the main event, I’m going to steal the show every time.”
