Conor McGregor kommer den 27 september att kliva in i oktagonen, då han tar sig an Dustin Poirier under UFC 178 i Las Vegas. Enligt McGregor så kommer matchen i vanlig ordning att bli en enkel sådan, som han tror sig vinna via KO i första ronden.
Här kan ni läsa vad Conor hade att säga om det kommande mötet, via ”MMAJunkie”:
This is who I am. I like to look good and whoop ass. It’s what I do best. I’m not trying to be nobody but me and on Sept. 27, I’ll rip Dustin’s head clean off. It makes no difference that it’s a little pea head.
Dustin’s all talk. Dustin thinks it’s all talk, but when he wakes up with his nose plastered on the other side of his face, he’s going to know it’s not all talk.
His chin is deteriorating. Every single contest he gets in, he hits one knee. A gust of wind, and he does the chicken dance. Coming up against me, that’s not going to be good.
I’m going to crack him with a jab and he’s going to wobble, and I’m going to put him away early. It’s going to be a first-round KO. Mark my words.
Sist vi såg McGregor inne i oktagonen var vid ”UFC Fight Night: McGregor vs. Brandao” i Dublin, då han tog sig an Diego Brandao i en match som Conor tog hem via TKO i första ronden.
