focusing on the best Conor McGregor
moments from outside the Octagon and
ring only so his best post fight remarks
did not make the cut
number 10 that suit was just noise at
first a mystic Mac versus money
Mayweather boxing match seemed unlikely
but both camps reached an agreement in
June 2017 with the two fighters
guaranteed huge paychecks leading up to
the fight McGregor and Mayweather held
press conferences in four major cities
to ensure hype was high during the LA
stop mystic Mac walked on stage wearing
a one-of-a-kind suit from afar it just
looks like pinstripes
but those pinstripes are made from words
and those words are a pretty obscene way
of saying you hate someone yeah it’s a
nice good money it’s just the O’Connor
eventually lost to Mayweather in ten
rounds this is still a classic example
of just how brash and controversial he
is is it a contract to
it can’t even afford a zoo anymore
number nine going for a walk every great
professional fighter needs a trademark
move for Conor an active imitation would
evolve into much more at UFC 202
McGregor borrowed a popular move from
WWE mogul Vince McMahon who mystic Mack
admitted he admires for his long-term
business success still Connor has made
it more than clear that he’s taken
ownership of the strut with his own
flamboyant interpretation while it may
not be an original his take on it has
become trendy within pop culture as
other professional athletes and
celebrities have adopted McGregor
signature move you kidding me number
eight you’ll do nothing none none after
a shocking loss against Nate Diaz at UFC
196 Connor got a well-deserved rematch
for UFC 202 the initial press conference
went down is one of the more memorable
pre-fight events but it was Connors
final words and actions that made
headlines Diaz taunted McGregor from
across the room leading the Irishman to
fire back with some choice words of his
own you know
Connor not only told Diaz to get lost
but he actually began throwing bottles
which ultimately earned him a $25,000
fine Colin all this moment is proof that
mystic Mack plays by his own rules
[Music]
number seven connor fights Conan you put
your hand down and swing around like
that back over a year before his big
fight with money Mayweather Conor
squared off against a popular late night
host with Irish blood himself there may
be a significant size difference between
the two but luckily for Conan O’Brien it
was only an exhibition match if you
really hit me I will die before you hit
me Connor
nearly landed one of his famous capoeira
sidekicks which Conan managed to evade
probably thanks to one or two pre-show
rehearsals okay we’ll just go right
across my face and then I would die no
he was already a legit UFC star this
moment would help Conor further enhance
his personal brand while also showcasing
his impressive technique
[Applause]
number six who the F is that guy this
guy TKOs people when I knock people out
they don’t move
in his last Octagon bout before taking
on mayweather Connor fought Eddie
Alvarez at UFC 205 during a pre fight
conference a reporter asked McGregor who
would give him the most trouble before
mystic mat could even answer the
question Jeremy Stephens interrupted to
make a case for himself which did not
impress the champ whatsoever for Connor
the name Jeremy Stevens doesn’t have the
same clout as Conor McGregor even
hinting at a potential fight with Floyd
Mayweather approximately nine months
before it was made official on this day
McGregor made it clear that he is in a
class all his own I’m gonna have to jump
up and drag Floyd Mayweather out bad see
what the heck
number five I love you like my bitch so
I I don’t want to scare him anymore he’s
petrified while promoting UFC 194 Conor
showed us why he’s one of the best smack
talkers and professional sports at first
he continuously insulted Jose Aldo whom
he’d ultimately knock out in 13 seconds
but the most verbal damage came when
McGregor referenced Aldo second fight
against Chad Mendes at UFC 179 you look
like you’ve had a stroke the left side
of your face is droop and I’m worried
about you
Conor patronised Jose even suggesting
that he was flat out worried about
Aldo’s physical well-being he wasn’t of
course and McGregor made that clear with
a scathing comparison I love you I love
you like my bitch I just want to make
sure you’re okay in the UFC this type of
mental warfare is huge for promotion and
Conor is always on point with his
comedic timing yourself medically tested
is that your face is drooping to the
left number four gods recognize God’s me
and Jesus are cool Conor was originally
scheduled to fight Hoffa l dos Anjos at
UFC 197 but the Brazilian ultimately
dropped out after breaking his leg
during training during a pre fight
conference McGregor verbally destroyed
his would-be opponent consistently
making fun of dos Anjos while bragging
about his own
legacy I made this film I made
everything that you do with this I put
him in that seat where Hoffa L was quiet
and reserved
Connor was loud and boisterous even
comparing himself to a god I’m killed
with all the gods gods recognize gods
this is one of his most iconic boasts
and it seems to make sense as mystic Mak
continues to defy the odds year after
year I’m gonna go in and bully him in
his own division
oh you weigh him in there number three
throwing money with money Mayweather yo
while promoting his 2017 money fight
Connor made a stop in Brooklyn New York
throughout his career
Floyd Mayweather typically dominated
these kinds of promotional events and he
tried to show McGregor up here by
showering him with money jaunty music on
what his trip
[Applause]
but Connor is no scrub and he did not
seem too impressed with his shades on
and a robe around his neck mystic Mack
made a keen observation about the flurry
of cash
you work available yeah it was a brief
moment but still a perfect example of
how McGregor can turn any situation in
his favor with only a few razor-sharp
words
number two red patty night if Dana rang
you and said you don’t have to face her
only you can fight McGregor
even though surrani was still feared
would you take it at the go big press
conference for UFC 197 Connor reminded
Hoffa L dos Anjos and everyone else in
the room about his own superstar status
dos Anjos who missed out on UFC 196 due
to injury tried to interrupt McGregor
but this moment belonged entirely to
mystic Mack you fight me it’s a Celebi
too and you signed up for me it’s a
celebration you ring back home you ring
your wife baby we’ve done it well rich
baby Connor went on about how he thought
he could make those on Joe’s rich and
then went on to present a descriptive
scenario involving the Brazilians wife
break out the red panties we’re rich
baby Dana White seemed to appreciate the
comedy and when nobody else spoke up
Connor delivered the line one more time
like only he could yeah it’s red panty
night when you started to find me I get
back a home with your wife
celebration number one I would invade
his favela on horseback I own this town
I own Rio de Janeiro back in 2015
Connor was a top UFC contender while
josée Aldo was the featherweight champ
due to a rib injury the Brazilian would
ultimately drop out of UFC 189 however
he wouldn’t bow out before an eventful
pre-fight press conference that featured
a memorable mystic Mac moment on this
day McGregor was on his opponents home
turf regardless he didn’t hold back with
his insults essentially making him the
UFC’s number one villain if this was a
different time I would invade his favela
on horseback and kill anyone that was
not fit to walk on the tour’s last stop
back in his native Dublin McGregor
provided an exclamation point to the
whole thing by making a bold
Proclamation and even stealing Aldo’s
belt classic Conor
