Having grown in stature not just as a fighter but also as a buisness man, Conor “The Notorious One” Mcgreggor is now leaving no stones unturned in promoting his latest and most prized buisness possession – Proper 12.
Be it both the pre fight pressers, Conor has always attempted about making a statement about his brand of whiskey. However, Conor even made a toast to Conen O’ Brien during a brief appearance on his show. Being a stakeholder in the UFC Conen’s TBS talk show is generally visited by UFC fighters before major events.
The Dubliner believes Khabib is scared of him.
I saw what I’ve seen many times when I’ve looked at that man, his eyeballs turned to glass. The blood rushes from his body and sprints out of his arse. That’s what I saw – another man froze. I believe he has many weaknesses in his game. In the Dagestan region, they specialise in wrestling. The kid wrestled bears when he was a baby, it’s part of their culture. I’m under no illusion, he is a skilled wrestler.
I have many weapons to dismantle all styles of opponent and this is just another style of opponent. I believe he’s slow, he’s flat-footed. His striking is very average and I will look to expose that.
He may have wrestled Dagestani bears but he has never wrestled an Irish gorilla.
Conor then made a reference to Proper 12. McGregor took the opportunity to promote his new whiskey brand, having a sip of what may or may not have been alcohol.
