"I took the chance going in at 155lbs against Khabib,” McGregor told UFC commentator Joe Rogan afterwards. “Khabib came in, I felt I took him in the first round, but I was inefficient with my energy, again.
“And you know.... I’m not even a tiny bit humble in victory or defeat. He came in, he took the fight, he came in at 155 and done the job. He was efficient, I wasn’t efficient. That was it, I feel.
“These things happen. I’ll learn, I’ll grow. It is what it is. I’ll face it like a man, like a past-champion who was gifted the 155 shot against Alvarez and yes I admit I never defended dat ting. I’ll come back and do it again, as long as Dana pays me another US$12million.”
