Conor McGregor: Notorious Page #7

---

[Conor] Honestly, I feel for

Jos. He was a phenomenal champion.

We deserved to go a little bit longer.

[man] You did it all, sir. Congratulations.

Ireland, baby, we did it! Yeah!

[laughing, chattering]

[laughs]

You just keep doing it.

- Ten years...

- Bing!

one punch.

Ten years, one punch.

Ah, I love tradition.

To the Irish. Loving the Gael.

[all] To Ireland!

Yes! I love it.

[beeps]

Look at the way it's out

on its own, out on its own.

F***ing beautiful place, it

is. This is the first of many.

I'm going to buy land and have a

gym, have f***ing everything on it.

Horses and all. A farm.

A proper, proper compound.

That's a big operation.

I'll do that when the fighting

is done. Know what I'm saying?

When the fighting is wrapped

up, I'll go into that.

- [crowd cheering on tape]

- [announcer] Here we go!

- [announcer 2] Notorious Conor McGregor.

- Can you see that?

Black trunks for the

champion, Jos Aldo Jr.

Conor relaxed and smiling.

- Oh! Just slapped him!

- [crowd cheering]

Conor McGregor is the new UFC

featherweight champion of the world!

History.

- Long after I'm gone...

- Yeah.

that will be played.

Do you know what I'm saying?

The story will be told.

People can look back. I can look back.

- Even there, looking back, it's still weird, innit?

- [Dee] Yeah, it's mad.

[Conor] I'm spinning both ways. I'm

moving better than I've ever moved.

I honestly feel I am at a stage in

my life where I can overcome anything.

I can conquer anything.

That's where I feel I'm at now,

after coming through all that.

And now where I'm at, and

what I have and what I've done,

I can... I can conquer anything.

[man] Conor McGregor, you've taken

everything I worked for, motherf***er!

I'm gonna fight your f***ing ass!

You know what the real fight

is. The real money fight is me.

[man] UFC 196, as our featherweight

champion, Conor McGregor,

moves up to welterweight

to take on Nate Diaz.

[Diaz] You knocked out midgets.

- [Conor] I'm a lion. I'm gonna eat you alive.

- Short little people.

Your gazelle friends are gonna

be staring at your carcass.

"We're never gonna cross this river again."

I like him. He can hang with it.

He's just a big dope of a thing.

[Conor] I could just

continue. You know what I mean?

I'm the featherweight world champion.

But I seek challenges.

I went up again, another body type.

More questions from the

fans, more anticipation.

- Thank you so much, Conor. Thank you so much.

- I appreciate it. Thank you.

[Conor] No fighter in the

history of combat sport

has ever been 27 years of age

and at the numbers that I am at.

I don't want him to come in close,

but he was right in me line of vision,

and then I just blew up his hand.

"Get that thing out me face."

I've literally broken the

Internet about ten days in a row.

[man] We've never seen a guy

make the moves that you're making.

A featherweight champion moving

up two divisions to take a fight.

[Conor] There's many scared

pussies in the fight world.

People who don't take risks will

never climb to that next level.

That's what champions do.

That what generates interest.

I'm a hungry motherf***er that

does not care who is in his way.

The gates keep rising. The

pay-per-views keep rising.

Twenty-seven years of age at the

very, very top, with no one even close.

I'd love to fight myself if I really could.

I mean, imagine the

numbers that one would do.

[announcer] Here we go!

[man] Go on, Conor!

- Come on, Conor!

- Kill 'em, Conor!

- Come on, Conor!

- Yes!

That's where that left goes!

[announcer] Conor, the

aggressor here early.

- Round one, in the books.

- [air horn blares]

Round two!

Conor's busting Nate up,

which in the Diaz world

means absolutely nothing.

'Cause he will fight until

he can't fight any longer.

[announcer 2] Excellent exchanges here.

Good one-two by Nate. Strong jab by Nate.

Nate Diaz making up some

ground here in the second round.

- A big difference here.

- The power of that uppercut.

- He tagged him.

- Got him with a good one.

- He tagged him. He hurt him.

- He hurt him with that left.

- And he senses it.

- He's wobbling.

Diaz with a couple of big punches

that landed on McGregor's chin.

Oh, my goodness!

- Diaz taking it to McGregor here!

- He's hurting him!

Conor!

He caught him again with a right hook.

And another left!

And again with a combination!

And Conor looks for the takedown.

Look out for the guillotine!

Diaz trying to finish with a submission.

He's done it! Conor's in serious trouble!

Diaz gets the mount! My goodness!

- Now he's got the back!

- He's got him flattened out!

That's it! He's got the choke!

- He tapped! He tapped!

- He's done it!

It is all over!

Nate Diaz beats Conor McGregor!

[man] Yeah, Diaz!

- [woman] Congratulations.

- Diaz!

- Good job. Good job, boy.

- You're still the champ.

Hey.

Sorry, boys.

It's okay. It's okay.

- Sorry, buddy boy.

- It's okay.

Give him space, guys,

yeah? Just stay in the zone.

- What is it, the second round, yeah?

- Near the end of the second.

I don't know. I was hitting... I was

slipping and banging that left hand.

A load of times, he came short as well.

One stage, I caught him

with a clean uppercut,

and he just was always there in me face.

Pussied out, I did.

Pussied out.

What's up?

- [man] Here's Margaret now.

- Mags. What's up, Mags? Sorry, Ma.

Don't be worrying. I'm still proud of ya.

It is what it is.

[man] We're all still

proud of you, brother.

You have nothing to be

ashamed of. We're proud of you.

He can take a few smacks, he can, the c*nt.

Yeah, he can.

You stalked him. You were f***ing

merking him the entire time.

You'll come back, I promise.

I know you. Everybody here knows you.

F*** yeah.

[woman] There's a lot of people

who are obviously talking.

I know Jos Aldo had

some words to say.

[Conor] I've seen the Jos thing.

He's celebrating

somebody else's victory.

That's not the sign

of a true champion.

Let's see how it plays.

It is what it is.

Right now, I'm just...

bathing in defeat.

[Diaz] Nothing surprised me.

I knew I was the superior boxer,

the superior martial artist.

Superior jujitsu.

He got a lot of push.

He's been doing great.

He's got a lot of help behind

him. Wish I had the same help.

I've been in this a long time.

That was like my 25th

fight here in the UFC.

I'm at the top, so it's

their call what's next.

We'll see what happens.

[Dee] I was devastated for him.

The fight is gut-wrenching

to watch, win or lose.

So when he lost, I just wanted to see

him and make sure he was all right.

Once he was all right, then I was okay.

But it's hard to watch either way.

Fights are horrific to watch.

He just goes straight back in.

He knew that he is the better fighter.

He had a couple of hours and wanted

the rematch straightaway and got it.

So straight back into training

and that was it. And here we are.

Here we go.

You're always learning. Always learning.
