Young McGregor predicts his future in the UFC
It all started when Conor McGregor sat down for an interview at just 18 years old and predicted with an unshakable confidence that he would fight in the UFC.
“I am a professional fighter with a record of 4-1. I am an up and coming fighter and without a doubt you will see me in the UFC in the near future. Without a doubt.”
McGregor confidently laid out his career goals: To become the UFC lightweight champion, make more money than he knew what to do with and ultimately be the number one fighter in the world. He currently sits number two on the pound-for-pound list and has accomplished the rest.
On April 6, 2013 McGregor brought his first of many predictions to reality when he made his UFC debut in the octagon against Marcus Brimage. He made quick work of Brimage scoring a first round TKO.
