“Kash, what’s up my man? ‘The Notorious’ Conor McGregor here. Just getting on to give you a shout out. I heard you had a match with a dog and you won. So, congratulations on that victory. I plan on securing my own victory on January 23 rd.

“I am here now isolated away getting my work in. Taking inspiration from your victory. Alright, thank you so much, and congratulations on the win. My man. Let’s go, Kash,” McGregor said in the video.
