“If you notice the stare, I felt his right hand was shaking, which was a sign for me. He's ready to let go of that hand, but I feel like this could be the end for him. If he lets go of that right hand, he won't find me. I will simply enter the way I enter and that will be enough. They want to overextend or shorten the distance, but either way it won't be good for them. I'm going to create traps and a dead space inside that octagon and I'm going to take him to that dead space and, suddenly, he'll be in danger”, guaranteed McGregor, in an interview with the “Fight Network” website.

At the press conference after the event, the episode was recalled by the reporter who had interviewed him and McGregor returned to comment on the topic. “If you can see it here (in your head) and have enough courage to speak out, it will happen. I see these images, I see these sequences and I don't repress them. Many times people believe in certain things, keeping them to themselves, they don't put it out there. If you really believe it, if you start to vocalize it, you create this law of attraction and it will come true. I felt like he was going to let go of that hand, and I wanted to take a short shot to get that pressure almost to make him back away. And then he let go. I pulled, his left hand went in clean. No force, no pressure, it just clicked. It was precision, timing. If you fall for a scam like that, you’re going to sleep,” he said.

At 27, Conor McGregor has a professional record of 19 wins and two losses. New UFC featherweight champion, Conor has two paths to follow, according to president Dana White: vacate his title and move up to the lightweight category, where he will have an immediate shot at the belt; or stay in your category and face Frankie Edgar.
