Conor McGregor radade under ”UFC: Fight Night Dublin” upp sin elfte raka seger, då han slog ut Diego Brandao i första ronden. Nu förväntar sig McGregor att hans kommande motståndare Dustin Poirier kommer gå samma öde tillmötes, och detta hade Conor att säga via ”SevereMMA”:
He talked all that shit on Twitter as if he wanted it but when we were face to face, man to man, I knew he didn’t want it. There were no words spoken, we both know what happened, he was afraid.
I know he won’t stand with me. He’s going to get caught with a couple of punches and then he’s going to come charging in with his head down. I’ll land a couple more and that will be it.
I’ll crack him early, he’ll probably shoot for a takedown and as he’s looking for it I’m going to sprawl on him and crack him a couple more. He’ll go down and I’ll finish him – that will be that. It won’t leave the first round.
This event matches my aspirations 100%. My aspirations are all geared towards money and Las Vegas means money. Here I am, the big time – the big show. People can hate me, hate what I’m doing, hate the way I’m doing it but I do it right and that is that.
McGregor kommer att möta Poirier vid UFC 178 den 27 september, en gala som kommer gå av stapeln vid ”MGM Grand Garden Arena” i Las Vegas.
