Conor McGregor: Notorious Page #6

---

All the business partners, get in.

Good business.

I was so nervous down there.

I think I lost two pounds

just in those few minutes.

I could feel Heather's eyes on my leg.

I saw you on the ground. I was like...

Oh, man, it's been a long road.

It's been a long, hard road.

Conor! I love you, Conor.

[man] Conor, how do you feel?

[White] This now sets up

a fight with Jos Aldo

that will be easily

the biggest fight

in the history of the UFC.

[Conor] In my opinion,

Jos went running.

If he wants to come

back, he can come back.

But I swear to God

his day will come.

- The boys!

- Wanna help us?

- I need to get him out, 'cause he's going bananas.

- Yeah, right.

Who's got the third one?

That just needs a clean on the

outside, but this, inside and outside.

There's the keys to the BM.

There's the keys to the Merc.

And the Range is gonna come

around now in a minute, yeah?

[Conor] A couple of weeks after the

fight and I watched the whole thing,

taking me back, and I went back there.

Watching all of it, it's crazy.

Watching situations back and

then putting yourself back there.

Intense.

I like to do that.

It's like mental preparation,

even if I'm not there.

Go to that place where I was

feeling them feelings. I live there.

So when it's actually that time of day,

it's just... it's just another day.

I'm so comfortable with

it. I'm so used to it.

I've done what no other man could

do. Got him out of bed early.

Right to the end! Come on!

Ain't nothing. Easy. Easy work.

[Conor] The hardest workers in the game.

That's why we're the

highest paid in the game.

- Go!

- Come on! Round five!

[man] Knock his f***ing head off, Conor.

- F***ing A!

- [Conor] Thank you.

[man] I think Aldo's gonna be very

lucky to get out of the first round.

Definitely an improved Conor McGregor.

Every single camp, he just takes

those leaps again, you know?

Heel to toe.

Heel to toe.

This is what we do with

newspapers in this house.

Newspapers don't get read around here.

Ey! Ey!

- Let's go.

- Ey!

Ey!

F***ing brilliant.

[Jimmy Kimmel] So, is it a fun job?

[Conor] It is extremely fun beating

people up for lots of money.

[audience laughs]

[Jimmy Kimmel] Do you talk to

them while you're beating them up?

Is there, um...

Are there conversations?

I certainly let them

know that they hit weak.

What about this guy you're

fighting? What's his name? Jos?

We're almost there. I'm

not gonna get too excited,

because it was around this time

the last time that he pulled.

I'm a true great, and I conquered my

adversity. He did not. He went running.

[Conor] I don't know.

It's a good craic, innit?

I'm a bit more comfortable

with it now. I don't know.

It's weird when you watch yourself.

I used to watch and be like, "Why

the f*** am I sounding like that?

Why am I talking like that for?"

Me and her, she'd be slagging me, mate.

Why would I be slagging you?

Why were you slagging me? Sometimes

I can't listen to myself talk.

And I may have...

But that was all right.

Wow!

- Here's the view.

- It's a mile, guv'nor.

Look at that view. Geez!

[Conor] This must be 15

press conferences I've done

without getting to fight this man,

so I am happy that we are here now.

I am in a state of Zen,

ready to put on the performance of my life.

Ey-ey! Ey!

[Conor] Within four minutes,

the shots will have landed.

Anything after that four-minute

mark of the first round

will be a formality.

[Aldo speaking Portuguese]

[Conor] This one will be a master class.

This one will be the changing of a guard.

The pound-for-pound number

one, undefeated ten years.

The only featherweight champion.

What can they say after Jos falls?

This will prove my point:

that I am the number one.

[applause, cheers]

[singing]

[man] It's good to come out

and support my Irish brothers.

And, of course, Conor McGregor,

the man, blitzed it already.

Mathematically, Aldo's too

short to get in close to Conor.

His length, his reach, his

height is way too much for him.

It's gonna be a debacle. It's done in one.

If it's not done in one,

it'll be done in two.

[cheering]

[White] Here we go, ladies and gentlemen!

Introducing the Notorious Conor McGregor!

[fans singing]

[man] Hold on, Conor.

Hold on.

Good job. 145.

[White] 145 for Mr. McGregor!

[Conor] I know that the sore parts of

his face won't be able to take my shots.

I just wanna thank the Irish

people for coming out here for me.

It means everything.

Tomorrow night, I will bring that

gold home for Ireland once again.

[White] Conor McGregor,

ladies and gentlemen!

Fight day.

I tell you what, I've had about 25 meals.

[laughs]

Since f***ing yesterday.

Everyone in that bleeding arena will

be in bits by the time I get there.

They're already in a heap.

Half of them don't even

know where the f*** they are.

Gas. It'll be a good night.

Everything will be too much.

The shots will be too heavy.

The movement will be too fast.

You're gonna see that fear rush across

his face after the first exchange.

Uh-oh.

Love this suit.

[chattering]

I look clean. Fresh as f***.

How do I look, boys? Huh?

[man] Yeah.

Nice.

[laughs]

Let's go school this motherf***er.

Let's see you now, boy!

Major fresh I look. The face and all.

Six hours later, he looks.

You out of here, babe? All right.

See you after the fight.

He looks tired.

Oh. You don't want to come

in against me looking tired.

Where's the real champ?

There he is. Fresh.

Whoo!

That man is fresh.

Lavender, that is. Yeah,

that's a lavender tie.

Too strong, too fast.

[grunts]

Can't take the power. Can't take the power.

- Ey!

- Yeah.

That's the one.

That's a knockout.

You could put somebody in front of

him and you'd still knock him out.

That's why you're fighting. It is

your future, your family's future.

- Ready, Conor?

- Yeah.

Let's go, boys. Let's do it.

- The shackles are coming off.

- Freedom.

[woman] Three!

Two!

One!

One, one, one!

[announcer] Fourteen-fight win streak.

I want you to fight hard but clean.

If you wanna touch gloves, touch 'em now.

Good. Step back. Good luck.

[announcer] Jos Aldo!

featherweight fight of all time.

[announcer] Here we go!

[announcer 2] Green

Conor relaxed and smiling.

Oh, my! He slapped him. Yeah!

Conor McGregor is the new UFC

featherweight champion of the world!

Oh! Unbelievable! The first punch he threw.

Slapped him!
