McGregor puts lightweights on notice
Conor McGregor: “I come in refreshed at lightweight. It’s a different camp. It’s a different buildup when I’m fighting at lightweight than it is fighting at featherweight.”
Conor McGregor is one of the featherweight divisions and UFC’s fastest rising stars, but the ‘Notorious One’ sees himself as a lightweight after conquering his division:
“I don’t like making this weight. I like fighting at lightweight. I fought at lightweight many times in my career,” McGregor said after the close of UFC 178 in Las Vegas. “I’m fast at lightweight. I come in refreshed at lightweight. It’s a different camp. It’s a different buildup when I’m fighting at lightweight than it is fighting at featherweight.
“I’m definitely open to fighting at lightweight no doubt.”
