Comparing Conor McGregor to me is ‘disrespect’

“I don’t see what other people are seeing that there’s no way Conor can touch this guy”, Conor McGregor‘s coach said.

Reports of WWE showing interest in signing the hottest commodity in the combat sports world, Conor McGregor, have been doing the rounds ever since the Notorious created history at UFC 205 be becoming the first man to hold two UFC titles simultaneously.

One of the most interesting onlookers to McGregor’s dominant performance was WWE vice president of talent Paul “Triple H” Levesque, who attended the event and tweeted about the Irishman’s performance on Saturday night. The history books will speak of a man who came close to retirement from a sport in which he felt he was going nowhere, to reigning supreme in the world of MMA, from the arena where legends were born.

“What does he walk around at?” 180lbs? I have smaller guys now in the WWE. Have you ever made $300 million in one night?

McGregor became a UFC legend on Saturday in NY by becoming their first ever two-weight champion with two belts on his shoulders and 14-time world WWE champion Triple H thinks the Irishman could come over to wrestling.

Kavanagh also told Ariel Helwani that McGregor’s calmness in the pressurised environment of the octagon is “what really makes Conor stand apart”.

However, the odds of a McGregor appearance on WWE look slim especially after his comments about professional wrestlers.

McGregor took out Eddie Alvarez at UFC 205 on Saturday night to secure the promotion’s 155 title. “Eddie is a solid competitor, Eddie is a warrior, but he shouldn’t have been in here with me and that’s just the truth of it”, said McGregor. “They’re messed up p***ies if you ask me”, he had added. “I just want to say from the bottom of me heart, I’d like to take this time to apologize … to absolutely nobody”.

“The Notorious” facing frustration if he is serious in wanting to earn super cash in the ilk of Mayweather’s and doesn’t have the clout as a boxer to make a move into the mix with the best operators at the welterweight limit.

Despite nearly bearing the brunt of McGregor’s chair-tossing antics and trash-talk heading into the event, Alvarez said he had no hard feelings toward the champ and praised his history-making accomplishment in the sport.
