McGregor: I stay hungry despite the luxuries
Conor McGregor: “I am surrounded by luxuries, but it has been built, and continues to be built by sacrifice every single day. I wake up and I work hard inside the Octagon…”
Conor McGregor recently moved to Vegas and put himself up in a mansion, but while speaking to Off the Record assured everyone that he is still hungry and training properly despite being surrounded by luxury:
“I am surrounded by luxuries, but it has been built, and continues to be built by sacrifice every single day. I wake up and I work hard inside the Octagon, outside the Octagon, in the business side, in the gym. Every aspect of my life, I put everything into. I surround myself with luxury now, but make no mistake — it is built and continues to be built through sacrifice.”
There has also been the question of just how hungry, literally and not figuratively, McGregor is. After all, former UFC fighter Chael Sonnen visited with McGregor recently and then told the world that “Notorious” told him he weighed 172 pounds just days before he’ll have to weigh 145 pounds for his interim title fight against Chad Mendes.
According to Conor, that was just either a misunderstanding or another one of Chael’s many tall-tales. “I did not tell Chael I was 172 pounds,” he said.
