“I'm gonna beat the f**king dog sh*t out of him—straight—up, stand—up style. None of that grappling. I'm just gonna get in your face, knee your ribs, elbow your f**king face. It's gonna be a fight, man”

“I don’t see Conor getting in and doing anything. He’s having a good time doing cocaine, and it’s not that fun to go to the gym and put in the work—to get your a** kicked day in and day out, to run those miles, swim those laps, and have your coaches telling you what time to wake up. He doesn’t want that lifestyle; he’d rather fight at bars.”
