The controversial stance of Conor McGregor it bothers not only his rivals in the featherweight division, but also fighters from other weight divisions.

Current lightweight champion, Dos Anjos stated that, if the fight between them gets off the ground, he would guarantee that he would crush the controversial fighter. “I think if he beats Aldo – which I think is very difficult – I would be happy to welcome him. He has a huge mouth, he speaks well to people. He is a comedian and manages to get the attention of the press. If he comes to the lightweight division, I'm here and I'll make sure I crush him”, said Dos Anjos, to the German website “GNP1”.
