Regardless of being absent from the Octagon for greater than 4 years, McGregor remains to be one of many UFC’s greatest stars. His means to seize headlines and promote fights is simple, however someplace alongside the best way, McGregor seemingly misplaced himself.
Amassing thousands and thousands of {dollars} and immense fame, McGregor went from appearing infamous to turning into ‘The Infamous,’ and his recent “negotiations” with the U.S. government are one other prime instance of that.
“I solely inform you that as a result of I do have slightly little bit of a priority with Conor,” Chael Sonnen stated of the Irish megastar through his YouTube channel. “The phrases that Conor used usually are not true. Should you have been to ask him for the telephone quantity to america authorities, he wouldn’t have the ability to produce it. Only for instance, this isn’t actual. However the voice wherein Conor did the spoof interview can be not Conor’s pure talking voice.
“He’s doing an increasing number of interviews with this new voice… Those who know him say that he began to reply the phone with this voice. And the folks would say, ‘Larry, why are you talking like that?’ And he would say, ‘I’m attempting to remain in character always. That is the way you develop into good on the gimmick.’ Over time, he forgot that this wasn’t his precise voice.”
Conor McGregor Supposedly Negotiating with the U.S. for $100 million UFC return
For these unfamiliar, McGregor has claimed that he’s working instantly with the Trump administration to safe a $100 million payday (and that’s not all) for a possible return to the Octagon for the UFC’s extremely anticipated Combat Evening on the White Home in 2026.
“I’m not negotiating with the UFC on behalf of myself for this combat like normal. I’m negotiating with america of America on behalf of Eire for this combat,” McGregor stated. “It’s a peculiar one. Trump and the administration have been absolutely supportive and backing, and I can not wait to placed on a present.”
Whereas the greenback could sound fully absurd, McGregor claims to have made $100 million for his combat with Floyd Mayweather again in 2017 and supposedly banked $80 million for his bout in opposition to Donald ‘Cowboy’ Cerrone. With that in thoughts, a nine-figure payday doesn’t appear all that loopy for the previous champ-champ.
