“The Notorious” Conor McGregor may have talked his way into a UFC title shot. Now all he has to do is back up that talking by beating Dennis Siver.
“This fight in Boston, if he wins, he’s going to fight for the title,” White said.
Siver is no push over though, he will test Conor and he won’t be intimidated by his mystique. Dana white agrees:
“Everybody just assumed he’s going to run through Siver,” White said of McGregor. “Nobody thought he was going to beat Poirier, but now he’s just going to walk through Siver? I don’t ever f-cking count the chickens until the hatch, believe me, because anything can happen in this sport. So we’ll see what happens.”
Conor declared himself the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world and a UFC championship would definitely give him some legitimacy, but for that to happen he will have to beat Jose Aldo.
Aldo looks forward to the challenge.
