Pain is part of the sport.

People do what they think works for them, but the sport is about instinct, movement, balance, power… it’s too animalistic to get rigid about your training.

Conor McGregor

People like to blame others. I think a person should just look at their own situation, look around them, find out what they wish to do, and seek and go and do that. And that’s it.

People say that I’m a boxer. I actually started with kick boxing, and then I moved onto boxing, and then I moved onto grappling.

Conor McGregor

People think hard sparring will get you sharp. And you do get sharp in the gym. But anytime I’ve trained that way, I’ve actually been a little bit flatter in the fight. And the knockout shot hasn’t come. It’s almost because my training has been too hard.

People think I’m a celebrity. I’m not a celebrity.

Posture for combat is so vital.

Conor McGregor

Power and speed aren’t enough to overcome someone who is strategic, who knows what you’ll do before you do it and can turn it on you; someone who is mentally engaged and combines the whole package.

Conor McGregor

Pressure is an illusion, but I like that illusion of pressure.

Ritual is another word for fear, manifested in a different way.
