Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) featherweight champion Conor McGregor, like Ronda Rousey before him, is starting to pop up all over the place. “Notorious” recently surfaced on the official Instagram account of “obsessed” basketball superstar LeBron James.
“There’s no talent here, this is hard work. This is an obsession. Talent does not exist, we are all equals as human beings. You could be anyone if you put in the time. You will reach the top, and that’s that. I am not talented, I am obsessed.”
I guess we’ll see who puts in the harder work on March 5.
That’s where McGregor fights UFC lightweight champion Rafael dos Anjos, as the pair headlines the UFC 197 pay-per-view (PPV) championship doubleheader inside MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. And after he takes care of business in “Sin City,” it’s off to the 170-pound weight class.
