In McGregor’s own words, “Don’t be saying you are betting your fight purse against each other. Because it never happens. And it’s stupid.” He urged his fellow fighters to focus on their training and earning money through their hard work and dedication.

McGregor also advised fighters to take pride in their earnings and refused to take unnecessary risks, just for the hype of the fight. He wrote in his tweet, “Train hard. Fight hard. Earn your dough. And then enjoy it.” McGregor’s advice puts emphasis on the importance of focusing on one’s skills and efforts, rather than indulging in risky bets that can put one’s career and earnings at stake.

As McGregor rightly points out, fighting is a tough sport, and fighters should work hard to earn their place in the ring. So, rather than making false claims about betting their purses, fighters should focus on their training and improving their skills to succeed in the sport.
