During the UFC 264 presser, a war of words even started between McGregor and a reporter. It all began when the reporter questioned McGregor about just winning 1 fight since the end of 2016. ‘Notorious’ quickly cut the question in between and responded in typical Conor McGregor style.

However, that didn’t stop the reporter who went on to ask McGregor: Why should anyone expect this fight to be any different from the one 6 months ago. The former UFC dual champion replied, “It’s one more fight I won than your little shitty a**. You little funny man.”
