Conor McGregor had the most McGregor-like answer when asked about his romantic side. “My romantic side? Oh god, that’s an interesting one… I don’t know about romance, but I like to get down occasionally, yeah?… I don’t really have a romantic side, is what I am saying. If I go for it, I’m going in for the kill. You best believe that you will not catch me walking down the beach holding hands. You’ll catch me going deep.”

When one of the interviewers, in a playful way, told Conor that he couldn’t use the same approach towards his girlfriend that he’d use against his opponents, McGregor replied with, “I speak the truth, my friend. What do you want? You ask me these weird questions, I answer you with the truth.”
