Why on Earth would McGregor call his fellow professionals 'monkeys'..

[retsdon]

...and his opponent a 'mush head'? Where's the upside?

 

[wilKO]

Conor can be so rude sometimes.

 

[Arm Barbarian]

McG bro


Is normal

 

[gmr7494]

It keeps the Conor mythos alive and generates many Jimmy rustles, which you need apparently to sell fights

Because Nate is partying full time in his head for the rest of his life

McG talking sh** shocking!

 

[Nightmaree]

They don't talk, like i talk - literally

 

[kibz]

He wants a reaction. It gets a reaction.

 

[FleximusPrime]

Well obviously because they fight for peanuts unlike him.

 

[scurdhomey]

It is all to talk shit and get some hype around the fights... you now... it's pretty much what made him famous and a big draw...

Not sure why he decided that he doesn't want to do it anymore and blame the UFC for asking him to do what he's always done.

 

[[insert_name_here]]

Not all of 'em...

 

[cenksinan]

because we all are.

Cos he has no class

millions of dollars

He's still in character. Conor is thinking 10 steps ahead of everyone. Once the dust settles, he has like 20 potential match ups that he can sell.

 

[War Pig]

Because he can get away with it because everyone is too busy criticizing Ronda for not shaking Miesha's hand.

 

[The guest]

He's a complete douche. The only ones that don't see it are his huggers. Little beta betty's like to pretend they are actually Conor. Then they'd have the scrote to shit talk like him in real life. In reality they walk through life with their eyes firmly fixed on the ground. But they love his disrespectful shit talk. They think it's BAWSE.

All part of the show. This isn't quite family entertainment.

 

[The Natural Born Runner]

Racist.

 

[HadoukenHendo]

He's referring to the MMA media circus, he has said on numerous occasions that the lead up to the fight is like going through the circus where he is a lion/monkey in a cage dancing for our entertainment using the same repeated lines.

He's saying it's time for the others to fulfil their promotional obligations and carry the card, whilst he trains his balls off. What's so hard to understand?

You lot will try anything you can to make Conor look like a dick
