Conor McGregor has offered his thoughts on the public perception of him in a candid interview, telling the reporter: “I’m living the whatever the fuck I want life.”
McGregor addressed rumours that he had fallen out with UFC’s management in the interview with Severe MMA, saying: “It’s all horse sh*t, that is. I have a great relationship with Lorenzo and a great relationship with Dana.”
The Irishman continued: “Don’t get me wrong, I’m climbing that corporate ladder every day and we will be neck and neck. Maybe somewhere along the line, I will take that lion’s share. But we will always be together. Loyalty is what I have. They gave me this. They are helping me with this and I am helping them. We are a team.”
When the interviewer asked whether McGregor felt people were too quick to suggest that McGregor was picking and choosing his fights, the UFC featherweight champion replied: “I am taking what I want and I am doing what I want. When you can rack up $400 million in revenue for the company, you can do whatever the f*ck you want. I’m living the whatever the fuck I want life. That’s the life I live. Whatever I want, whenever I want. And I have earned that through hard work, through sacrifice and that’s it – through victory.”
