Conor McGregor: Notorious Page #8

---

Nobody knows everything.

We'll get him this time.

We'll get him this time.

I could sit here and spout off

a million excuses, but I lost.

I fought me heart out, and I

f***ing lost, and that's it.

All right?

I have reasons why I feel that happened.

The weight. The specific training.

Now I have a chance to correct that.

I have worked hard for this.

I have worked very, very hard for this.

[Lobov] That's the worst feeling in

the world is waking up the next day.

If you've taken a few digs

and you're sore everywhere,

and you've lost the fight.

And that is the lowest point

I've ever been at, I think.

It just feels so sh*t. You feel

like you've let everyone down.

You walk on the street, you see

some grandma walking up towards you,

and you think, "She

knows. She knows I lost.

She's looking at me and she's thinking,

Look at this loser. He lost.'"

And I found the easiest way to deal

with it is to get back to training.

Just get it over with.

You'll break a man... If you're standing

there letting him know, he'll start to panic.

Smash that leg every time. Get that

head down and unload on the body.

Open up Tyson style.

[Conor] You know what I mean? I just got

in this looking for a knock and a few quid.

I didn't get in there

looking for everything else.

Everything else happened, and I

embraced it and ran and rolled with it.

But when it comes down to it, I

just want to get in and have a fight.

So I'm just trying to pass

the time before I get in,

march forward, and throw bombs at this man.

Every fighter, every team, every coach

lives and dies in their last fight.

Yeah, 'cause guess what.

Our reputation's on the line.

[Conor] Structured. We've been

very structured, very focused.

I think structure is

the key to true success.

People say this and that.

People who say those things, the naysayers,

they weren't with me before anyway.

They're not gonna be with me

after I get this one back either,

so I don't pay attention to them.

[man] Do you need to beat

Nate Diaz, in your mind,

to validate the things that you've said?

[Conor] Yeah, 100%.

Most importantly, I'll go out

there and represent my team.

I have reasons why I

felt I performed that way.

Thankfully, I have an

opportunity to answer that.

Tune in August 20, you'll see the real me.

All right, let's go.

[chattering]

Let's go. Come on. We're going.

[White] What's up, everybody? Thanks

for coming today. We appreciate it.

[reporter] Can you tell me, I

guess, what you're feeling right now?

Once again, Conor McGregor is not here.

We're having a press conference here.

If it's over before he

gets here, then it's over.

Do you have any questions?

Other than Conor being late?

Yeah, so they started the

press conference without you.

Okay, okay. Dana said, "We're

going to start with or without him.

He needs to respect those times."

I want you to be aware of

what you're walking into.

All right, cool. Bye. Bye. Bye.

He was like, "Well, f***, we're walking

into a war zone, but we already knew that.

What's up?"

Nate, do you feel that

you exposed Conor McGregor

as a better talker than he is a fighter?

I just think I beat him, and I thought

I could beat him the whole time.

Obviously, Conor McGregor is going to

believe he's going to win the fight.

That's what he said last time.

He's either lying to himself or

trying to make himself believe it.

He's a little silly, man.

But when he goes to sleep at night,

he'll remember what happened the last time.

[cheering, whistling]

Are you able to clear up why you are

a little late to the press conference?

Vegas traffic is heavy this time of year.

There must be a McGregor show going on,

because the place is packed out.

- [Diaz] F*** your whole team! How about that?

- F*** your whole team.

You'll do nothing. You'll do nothing.

- Come get you some, motherf***er!

- Shut your f***ing mouth!

You'll do f***ing nothing!

Not one of ya's will do nothing.

Get the f*** out of here!

[woman screams]

[White] That's a wrap.

Get them out of here.

Sorry, guys. See you Saturday.

- Dee got that.

- And I threw it right back at him.

He looked me in the eye

and was all, "Oh, sh*t."

F*** all that.

F*** all that. Are you

serious? Like, it's...

You have time. You have time.

You gotta be smart. All

you guys gotta be smart.

I'm the only one throwing bottles?

Even better, don't throw the bottle.

- Let them f***ing throw...

- You've just seen them throwing bottles.

I just started throwing them back.

I'm gonna get that little skinny bastard.

[Conor] Shut your f***ing

mouth! You'll do nothing!

Not one of ya's will do nothing!

Throwing bottles like thicks.

Stupid, that was, yeah?

- All they had to do was walk outta there.

- Yeah.

Do what they were doing and walk out.

Throw bottles, then it's different.

It's past a little

scheduled fight for me now.

The yokes had to bounce one off her elbow.

That's enough for me to catch one.

Outside of everything

else, seriously, that's...

- I don't give a bollocks about the fight, to be honest.

- I hear you.

You do understand why it's not that smart.

But I understand where the

emotions are coming from, you know.

[chattering]

[man] Official weight, 168!

[screaming]

[Conor] He should have killed

me when he had the chance,

'cause now I'm back, and I'm gonna

kill you and your whole f***ing team!

- You and them b*tch tits!

- [crowd cheering]

[cheering, whistling]

Where's Dylan?

Where the f*** is Dylan

now? For f***'s sake.

Tactics and technique.

That's where I'm at now.

The illusion of crazy is...

Now it's winding up.

Small crew, go in, step by step.

No wild exchanges. No

walking out. Pick your shots.

Mm-hmm.

[man] There are so many

questions involved in this fight.

But if I was Nate Diaz,

I'd feel pretty confident.

He has the strength behind him. He

has the size advantage behind him.

I think we're going to see

Diaz being vintage Diaz.

Guys, it is prediction time now. Does

Conor McGregor exact his revenge?

No. I think Nate Diaz is

going to overwhelm him.

I gotta go with Diaz

in this matchup.

Yeah, I'm going with Diaz as well.

I think he's going to be bigger, stronger,

and he's going to stop

him in the third round.

[Conor] I'll see you out there, right?

- You sure you're all right?

- Yeah.

- Are you all right?

- Yeah.

All right, fellas, here we go.

Let's go, let's go, let's go.

Gentlemen, you know the rules.

Protect yourself at all times.

Obey my commands at all times.

I want you to fight hard but fight clean.

If you wanna touch gloves, touch

now. Good luck to both of you.

[announcer] The fight's scheduled

for five five-minute rounds.

Conor looking for redemption.

He rocked him.

Straight left connects.

[announcer 2] Those are brutal

leg kicks he's landing on Nate.

Nate's having a problem with that

leg, Mike. He's moving on it funny.

[Mike] Fight going according

to plan thus far for McGregor.
