A Quote by Patricio Freire

What happens at McGregor's team is that they all talk like Conor McGregor but they don't do what he does. They try to do it. They gain notoriety by talking, and that's a mistake.

Everybody asks 'would you fight Conor McGregor?' - of course I'd fight Conor McGregor but it's not because of the money. It's because he's such a huge martial artist and everybody considers themselves the best if you fight Conor McGregor, if you beat Conor McGregor. I look at it like that.

Stephen Thompson

For Conor McGregor, I'm coming out of retirement just to fight Conor McGregor.

Floyd Mayweather, Jr.

I'm the original Conor McGregor. I'm the original model of Conor McGregor. He wouldn't be who he is if it wasn't for me. Nothing against him. I'm the original real deal.

Nick Diaz

Who cares if the locker room would embrace Conor McGregor. If Conor McGregor can be a revenue driver for WWE, if he can sell network subscriptions, or if he can sell thousands and tens of thousands of tickets, if he can move millions of T-shirts, who cares if anybody in the locker room likes it or doesn't like it.

Paul Heyman

Aldo needed to feel McGregor out. Coming right at him ran into McGregor's game. I thought he'd start by taking him down and confuse him a little. Maybe he had all that stuff planned, but one combo, and Aldo got caught. That happens, especially with a guy as talented and precise and full of power as Conor.

Chuck Liddell

Conor McGregor knows how to control distance well, but Anderson does it like nobody else.

Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira

Fighters don't like Conor McGregor.

Fabricio Werdum

I think Conor McGregor is a promoter, and I'm not here to promote any of his fights. If he were here in WWE, that would be a different story, but until that happens, I don't feel like I need to address it.

Samoa Joe

I'm not gonna be one of those guys who's going to do the Conor McGregor effect and talk a bunch of crap to make money.

T.J. Dillashaw

I know of Conor McGregor. This sport has evolved even from when I first entered the octagon. I think people are finding out that you have to talk the talk, and you have to - more importantly, you have to walk the walk.

Brock Lesnar

I don't follow the UFC as closely as some of my peers do. Obviously, Conor McGregor is a super talented guy. He is the best at what he does; he's a huge personality.
