Ya kno yaself
Aliya David Gold
brilliant.
Erm. Tank you.
“I rolled up in a Rolls Royce truck, some people have real problems” nice to see he hasn’t lost complete touch with reality
He usually is the wanker millionaire throwing money abiut and talking about peoples pay checks..... just feel a man that is structured and focused like he is just now is a dangerous dangerous fighter
@Neurolicious listen, just because you despise his eccentric acts , he's still just a regular human as any of us .
Brazilians: Holls Hoyce
This is the best version of Connie. The humble plumber with the deadly left hand
Neurolicious and what are you? Lol
lesson of real life to everybody: "if you get the reputation of always be there on time, be late 5 minutes and they'll scold you. but if you get the reputation of always being late, be late of just half an hour and they'll praise you"
Andrea Roll Yup. Don’t rely on anybody but yourself, and set other people’s expectations low, I learned this when I was 30 and this has been my key to happiness
People only hold you accountable for what they already expect from you. If you let people rely on you too much, you’ll inevitably find yourself coming up short eventually.
Nothing like outperforming your peers and still getting scolded because you let others set expectations of you too high...
Andrea you have no idea how true that principle is all through life. Years ago my career was international sales, and we shipped product all over the world. My manager taught us it was better to promise delivery in 10 days and deliver in 8 than to promise 4 days and deliver in six! In the former scenario the shipment was TWO days later, but the customer expectation was exceeded. In the latter, the client received his product TWO DAYS earlier, but his expectation was NOT met. Lots of wisdom there!
It looks like Conor already defeated his toughest opponent: cocaine
Now he's back to doing what he does best, being Irish Bruce Lee
OompaLoompaFu 😂😂
its funny but theres alot to what you just said here
Facts
Think you have a point there!
Anthony Hallberg lmao if you genuinely think Conor did not have a drug problem then you’re completely oblivious.
He is a genius. Long live the king. The way he is speaking and handling himself after so much hate is commendable.
I can't lie, I just realized, I kinda miss Connor..
@@lilplayboy98 in reality the antics are entertaining af to watch and bring in that extra cash
@@lilplayboy98 he's definetly done the right thing, im hooked again and the dislikes he used to rack up have dropped
You will see him after this fight
I've missed this Conor.
Slugger • they think he's toast but he's still the bread
Conor really really went from
"Who the fook is that guy"
To
"Who's that ambiguous fellow over yonder"
We'll see how this goes. Best of luck.
I love this version Conor.
This version lol
Alpha D2 it’s the same conor. it’s just a different person so therefore different circumstances.
@@SKY_FATH3R mate edit that mess
thanks to Khabib
Fake version
Fook off Friday, you're in the way of greatness.
We still have the weigh ins bro😁
Minor League

Conor "I'd like to take this chance to thank absolutely everybody and have a wonderful night God bless happy times happy times" McGregor 🤙🤙🤙
Good man!
i kinda miss the "id like to take this chance to apologize to absolutely nobody.."

"Happy days"
OsasiZ Next fight we’ll see it lol
No one:
Conor: Good man
Fire Horse I say this, it’s a pretty common phrase in the uk
Don’t u dare tell me I don’t say things I say
Conor ‘The Sweetheart’ McGregor
Don Papito
hater spotted
I agree bro. It’s just for PR. After the fight he will be snorting coke and sandblasting hookers with Jon Jones
@@jmiahrealone I thought it was PR but if you think about it his trash talks are mostly reactionary. Takes two to argue.
"We are gonna make him humble"
Natezirt Aledzurc nah im a fan... hating is for losers. I love almost all the fighters
I knew Conor saying “Good man” would become a meme 😂 the mma community is actually too funny
Hes been saying forever, took them long enough to meme it.
Why do I feel connor and cowboy train together soon
deevahgirl probably also drink together soon
No, conor has nothing to gain from training with cowboy
I could see connor at the BMF ranch for the day !!
@@adventure147 think he did say so
@@marcGOAT1 😂
That’s some PR man he must have for guidance
His gone from Tony Montana to Mother Teresa in 2 fights
O’hara Davies lmfao
O’hara Davies I totally agree!
🤣
😂😂
He's always been pretty emotionally intelligent
"Connor, right in front of you. To your left. Connor, I'm behind you."
underrated comment!! 😂
The media ask him so many questions that try to bring out a negative reaction from him. You can just tell.
Mcgregor looks calm and Focus here
thanks to KHABIIIIB
He looks healthy and energetic, no weight cut, clear complexion, sharp and polite... great to see!
"Im gonna make him humble"
- Khabib
LOL. I dislike Khabib but this is so true. I am a Tony fan btw.
Sam Crow I love mcgregor but just lyk his first child was born like 2 years before the khabib fight. I think the loss to Mayweather and Khabib humbled him a lot and made him see that while he rose to fame his work ethic probably decreased. And now we’re back to see confident yet controlled Conor. Obviously age helps but it’s unfair of you to mock Khabib, he beat the double champ, he obviously changed him. I think I’m an interview with Ariel he even admitted saying he knows he didn’t train hard enough for Khabib but now he’s back and ready to give it his all. So I think Khabib humbled him and took him off his pedestal, but the double champ will regain it if he continues like this
@@iem7252 im a fan of both, may the best man win
Little bit
Conor and khabib could fight ten times, and khabib is going to win all 10 of them. He just can't stop the wrestling, and the wrestling opens up the stand up. We've already seen it. We don't even need to see it again. All that will happen is the exact same thing, Connor will get taken down and smeshed.
Conor McGoodman
conman mcchicken is so easy to beat. usman, khabib, mendes and diaz already showed you the blueprint on how to beat a power puncher with no cardio.
It is so great to see this Conor back, so pumped for saturday!!
Conor “God Willing” Mcgregor
@PrincePrieto dude, he said that a couple of days ago and he knew that he had it wrong
PrincePrieto vloging channel ? you have no videos up...
@OXYMORON He's always been humble, just likes to have fun and calls out rats when he sees them.
Never seen Conor like this before. He is completely zoned in on this fight I think he can't wait to get back in there and show everyone what he can do. He's gonna wreck cowboy and I'd guess it's gonna be a slow and mean beatdown. A bit similar to the first round in the diaz rematch only this time he'll be more relaxed and more confident. I don't think he'll gas out this time.
ian trofimov Lol we’ll see about that
Tbf he hasnt gassed out since Diaz 1. In Diaz 2 he lasted a 5 round war still throwing shots and elbows as well as engaging in clinching and grappling exchanges. In The Eddie fight he was calm cool collective and used his energy efficient in all rounds. In the Mayweather fight in a new format he lasted many rounds and clearly could have continued to fight. In the khabib fight he was wrestling, clinching, transitioning and defending takedowns from the begining and still in the final round of the fight he came out guns blazing I'm pretty sure his cardio issue has been worked on and it's more of just using his energy efficiently rather than dumping it all in the first round with heavy attacks and having the adrenaline dump that gasses him out after that
But in this world, if someone gasses once, or taps, people fueled with hate are going to use that same material over and over. I think he has addressed his issues as well. Guess we will see soon.
eamon mcdonald cowboy is going to submit him
eamon mcdonald this Connors boring. But as long as he’s not all talk.
Who’s got the first question?
Fat guy : Hold my mic.
Every single time
Khabib: Humbled, job done!
Conor “The Nice Guy” Mcgregor
I imagined that in Bruce Buffer voice
This is too weird, I think I prefer the old version
hes alright when hes not attacking women and pensioners
@@kaiworleyphotography ik its hard to watch lol. Like, im sure this is closer to his genuine self, but still , its just such a difference
He's becoming spiritual. Not a bad thing.
Can't wait, hope Cerrone has the fight of his career.....good luck to both
Let's be real, it's probably his last big time fight. I hope he rises to that occasion also. Definitely gonna be a good 1
@King Delevingne we hope so bro
King Delevingne You’re award Conor hasn’t won for 4 years and is fighting at welterweight where he has no history? Very casual comment mate.. Cerrone is no walk in the park
Astro Swiifty people always saying he hasn’t won in 4 years, he only fought once..... I don’t think anyone takes khabib after such a lay-off. As I think would the roles be reversed. An inactive drunk khabib would also lose to an active mcgregor
@@astroswiifty598 bruhhh 😂💀
No one at all:
Bruce Buffer: "Fighting in the red corner, Conor "Blessed" McGregor!"
Max Holloway: " Hold my cross."
"I'm gonna humble him a little bit"
"I'm gonna teach him to respect"
Good job khabib!
Khabib is a kathmulla
Don't lie, Conor was much worse after he lost to khabib. Conor cleaned up his act after punching an old guy in the bar.
This is khabib's job hahahha now we have conor humble mcgregor
Khabib is a coward
Justin Davitt true
He looks so humble, which is really good to watch!
Respect for his will to fight, he doesn't need to do it anymore, he trully loves the fight game
Reynaldo Vieira i want him to win and succeed etc but i think he's doing this to restore his respect and dignity. He don't want to be remembered as a guy who lost his last fight, broke the law, has sexual assault etc. He doesn't want that ending.
Akshay Singh Chauhan true
I hate him but I love watching him ,,,, as a fighter I respect him
As a human I hate him
Now acting all fake 😂
The Market lol I meant I just hate he’s personality and don’t respect him as a person not literally hate 😝😂
*truly
Conors grown up a lot... he knows he’s made it
But you can’t help but respect his love for fighting
The fact conor is pushing for a rematch with khabib in his home country shows why he's Dana's golden boy. He deserves it
@BoredHub he will step in if Tony pulls out in april
@BoredHub how was the bullet?
Reporter: Question for you, Conor. On your Left. Here.
McGregor: Looks to his right.
He looked to his left.
Conor is talking like he use to mannnnn, hopefully cuz he actually changed and not just frontin.
He's so fake
waaayover9000 guys be real.
Dude hit an old man 10 months ago, it is really funny how do people think that he could change mentally and physically within that period , to a level it reflects on his performance.
nicelysaid ik bro ik
@@lilplayboy98 jon Jones actually is a terrible human being i can just tell. Where as Conor is good AND bad... just like most people
OMG I love this conor version so much. This is defo the old King back !
super fake, cause his latest boosting selling acts went wrong badly. This man slapped an elderly just a few months ago.
So apparently if you punch an old man you’ll get wisdom
lmao you didn't know that?
Shut your mouth, kid
Lol we got Jared Cannonier up here
you're a clown
The Irish have some weird rituals
People have real problems. Best answer and I appreciate his new found humbleness
Conor is in a good mindset, mystic mac is back!!
Glad that cerrone finally getting what he deserves a big pay day
he got a nice 6 fight contact which is good
I believe he has rich parents and a trust fund so i dont think he really needs money
@@LL-wc4wn Conor was on welfare
@@roas2 Yea, but money goes super quick once you have kids. He's prolly tryin to set it up so his kids never have to work a day in their lives.
Who ever fights Conor it's like winning the lotto
Kevin Cooke facts
I like both the crazy Conor and the more mature Conor!
Vary humble rock on Connor from Canada with love 🇨🇦
I really like this Conor. I’m telling you his child humbled him the most. Yes the Khabib fight got his attention, but I’m telling you that a kid changes a father’s heart completely. I know because I have 6 of them lol. Changed for the better every time .
He's been worse since becoming a dad 🤔
@@rejachemno no since he became father of a daughter he is changed he was worse when became father of a son 😂😂
So it wasn't the bad press, multiple alegations, multiple defeats that humbled him...it was having an other child?
His son is 2 and a half years old ya knob
He had his child 3 years ago. He’s doing a pr campaign
Sakuraba is the kind of guy to accept a fight with francis ngannou!
Is this a thing now ... Sakuraba jokes
@@sagarmohanty9655 not a joke
Sagar Mohanty hey why not?
Christ I hope not. Sakuraba is a warrior but that dude needs to retire before CTE kicks in
Clown+ Samurai = Sakuraba!
One of the GOATs! Ossu!
Man I love Conor being back..just more hype and energy around in everybody.
Conor Mcgregor’s often imitated, but never duplicated! Don’t get me wrong, I’m still looking forward to seeing this fight, but I prefer seeing Conor against an opponent he doesn’t like. I look forward to that side of the entertainment just as much as the 15-25 min in the octagon. It’s what separates Conor from the rest of the top 10 bracket, and sells fights.
Watch McGregor just as you wake up and you'll be motivated.
I like that he wants to look at everyone asking the questions. That's a good guy move
Patrick Burns
Everyone does that?
I really like this Conor. And cerrone deserves respect and its nice that the guys respect each other. Good man I think the guy answer the same questions like 15 times or more. I hear the same questions over and over again.
Nice to see he’s humbled himself,and not in that rage he was before..it hypes the fight but at the same time it misleads his real character..as you can see how he just said he rolled up in a Rolls Royce but he remembers his past.Wish him the best
Conor wants to Rocky IV khabib
zac shifler too bad Tony is gonna Rocky IV khabib in April
@@davevillarreal yeeuh. So do you think thats an avenue for Conor to get to Khabib? Cuz right now it seems like khabib is out of his grasp, but if khabib loses he loses stock. Or does khabib retire ? Or potentially commit harakiri during the post fight interview?
David Villarreal if he don’t pull out
@@davevillarreal👈 living in a fantasy
you mean rocky iii
The casuals want to hate Conor but have no choice to fall for his charm. It's masterful how he plays these marks.
Yeah and the "casuals" dont know about his charges and still praise him or they do know and their squids like him. Im surprised and cant believe he's even aloud to fight in two day. Unbelievable!! First coked out hit & runs now the UFC's letting rapists fight too, crazy world. And yes he masterful playing everyone believing his "changed" act. Real people see through all that bs.
@@hmcc2582 innocent until proven guilty is still a thing ya know? Allegations don't mean executions
Calm, happy, appreciative Conor is my favorite Conor.
Maturity wow humble. The reality is he sobered up.🤜🤛
reebok does not hide his AGUST MCGREGOR brand because he is the KING
Truly. No one else is allowed to wear any other brand name besides Reebok
@@sallgoodman2323 yea but it may also be because Reebok is making their own Conor line of Reebok gear that may be why he has the freedom.
Of course he should have special treatment
S'all good man! Prolly produced by Reebok. Conor will get a cut of whatever sold under this brand AM. It is the same as Tiger Woods - TW produced by Nike.
@@philipchan1856 its not produced by reebok August McGregor is a designer brand its a section of the designer David Augusts collaboration with conor mcgregor
Adesanya: Now it's my time...
Conor: Hold my Proper 12...
Glad ur back in the game brother!! Time to take over this time for good!
Conor looking fresh and energized. He is focused and driven again just like he was in 2015. It is good to see him back again.
Pressure can make diamonds and not everyone can handle that. Im very excited!
It's like Vince macmahon told him to take a face turn that was needed after years of being a heel
I honestly thought this was an after fight presser with how calm he is
It’s so good tho have him back. The whole fight week is completely different with Conor. The more he fights the more we get to enjoy.
Trust me he is like Goku right now. Harnessing that energy. Bet the house K.O. round 1.
Kamehameha left bomb
Yep. I love Cowboy, but that press conference was too much love.
Derek Gill weren’t you listening “acquiring rounds” he wont rush in id say round 4/5 ko
I agree. I have Conor by KO at 27 seconds in rd 1.
@@donniedarko1302 close 😂😂 predict conor v porier
Cant underestimate conor. He lost one mma fight to a goat contender after years off.
after years off, he took one round to a guy who never lost any round in his pro career...
if he faces khabib this year, the end result might be different, as chael said soon after the fight
astralseeker wrestling gap is too much. If Khabib fights the same; same result. Domination as usual.
Khabib likely wins but lets not give up on conor too quick. People act like he lost 5 straight
to me the best part of this day was after the conference, when a reporter asked Conor this question:
''we already know how Cowbow will celebrate if he wins, how would you celebrate?''
then Conor goes: ''How do you know how Cowbow will celebrate?''
reporter goes: ''with the red panties'' 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Conor laughed so hard hahaha that was really good
That initial noise where the ending music begin after the interview. I thought at first it was of him slamming the mic down hah
GOOD MAN!!!!!!!
"i'd like to take this time, to apologise.... to absolutely everybody"
glad to see you more focused,the hardest fight you can fight is with the head,the heads a funny place,good to see you ok
I love this Conor!!
This comment section full of people who have never made a mistake in their life 😂🙅🏻♂️
Right
Do these reporters even watch any other Connor interviews? Theyve asked him these same questions a million times by now.
I like this Conor if I am being honest. Not as funny as the Conor we are used to, but he has found a way to still sound/be confident and be respectful to those fighters he respects. Hopefully, this translates to his personal life and he can stay out of trouble. I am rooting for Cowboy in this one though.
This is a very different Conor I am stoked for Saturday night
Absolute legend
Khabib: i m gonna make him humble
Conor: good man
He was like this before lol. He just had to turn it up to 11 to promote the Khabib fight, there's a reason it got 2.4 million PPV buys and it's not because of the Dagestan MMA fanclub.
@@artiew8718 I know, i know " is only business" . good man
You can call him anything else but people act as if they wouldn't tap under the same conditions. Not tapping when you can is stupid if you're a fighter. It's a sport not a fight to the death where you have to prove your "honor"! "Let me get an extra unnecessary injury in a career that requires me to be in top physical condition". It's clear that none of these people that say stuff like "mctapper" have really any idea what it's like to be a professional fighter. You don't fully recover from many injuries even with the best medical technique and care. It's smarter to tap, there's nothing to prove to low IQ rabid haters whose biggest injury ever is a papercut.
Khabib “pull out of every fight “ nurmagomissweight
@@crashcoursezed7947 khabib didn't tap when when he had guillotine. When you fight for legacy you are always ready to die, if not atleast prove ur self you are fighting for legacy. Once upon a time mactapper was a good fighter but mooooony made him looser.
MMA has the best online community of all sports😁 The memes never stop!
So glad to see Conor back like this.
Conor Vs Canelo Alvarez at 154 pounds. I’m surprised we haven’t heard that match up. 👍🏼
Tnbt 21 I wouldn’t want to see Conor step into the ring with Canelo, he could suffer some serious neurological damage
Conor would get starched by Canelo badly.
Canelo wouldn't get touched. 5the round tko
Tnbt 21 you want conor to die? We dont want that fight cuz
Mcgregor would be taken out on a stretcher.
Conor Was Seen eating toaster strudel at 4:47pm
Love the new improved Conner stay real my friend
I love that Conor loves to make and give great men no matter the feelings. He gives them that oppurtunity to make the money he can bring to them by sacrificing himself by fighting whomever that might be. King Kong would get paid if he called Conor out. I hope he keeps the straight and narrow/ calm and just enjoy life. Thats another thing 145 155 170 and has wins in all those divisions and a belt in two at the same time. Thats overlooked. Legend, among other legends, and its great to see Conor help everyone keep this thing going at the most prosperous fashion in this game. He brings something so special its amazing to witness.
Conor "Triple C" McGregor
Conor “Conor McGregor” McGregor
B.R.M this comment made me laugh out loud
Respect Peace!
It's good to see conor back the new and evolved conor
Conor:
Someone: to your left
Tony Ferguson is the type of guy to sniff his opponents jockstrap to prepare for that style of fight.
I wanna know about the training, how he is punching harder is there punch stats are you measuring that ? Are you going to utilising kicks etc.
Seems humble appreciative ! Good luck Conor
He is so awesome I like his new confidence him and Masvidal will be the BEST fight and lead up too the fight!!💯💯🔥
Female Dance Fitness see normally I would agree which I do judges do tend to go for more famous fighters and undefeated plus hometown fighters they tend to lean towards but with Conor that’s wrong because he only has 2 decisions and he dominated both first one against Holloway no doubt he won that and Nate Diaz got dropped 3 times in the first two rounds if Conor lost that that would’ve been a robbery but buddy I see what your saying
Nah, street Judas is overhyped. Dude is trying to be just like Conor more ajd more everyday
Good man
@Female Dance Fitness What an imagination....a fixed fight would ruin the UFC.
@@StallionFernando Busting out his brand of Tequila....Conor has shown his fellow fighters a path to riches beyond the fight game using your brand
Now I wonder how relaxed he would be if his old pal khabib walked in 😂
I started to think he wasn’t gonna do it but props for showing up Greg
Conor is saying I am blessed, I am grateful, I am thankful, I pray for the people that want to hurt me, I have grown as a man and I am in a better place. Sounds like he found strength in something bigger than himself. If he continues on this path he will be unstoppable.
Conor "humble pie" mc gregor
Khabib said he will make Connor humble, yes he did.
Khabib is rich because of Conor
He needed to be a character and act the way he did to build his name, but now that he has the status that he does I feel like he can just be himself. Which is a humble respectful guy. And i like that. Glad to see him acting like he is.
Love a 3 fight year conor
