Conor McGregor has one sweet, simple message for Nate Diaz, Frankie Edgar and the rest

Perfect

Get down on your knees and tell me you love me.

“When you sign to fight me, it’s a celebration.”

Conor McGregor doesn’t seem too bothered about who wants to fight him.

It comes with the territory.

He knows he’s a cash cow for the UFC and he knows that other fighters know that too.

“You ring back home, you ring your wife: ‘Baby, we done it. Conor McGregor has made us rich.'”

Yes, it comes with the McGregor territory anyway but, now, as the undisputed champion? Jesus, it seems to be coming from every corner of the MMA world.

Frankie Edgar, only on Friday, got so sick of watching The Notorious’ rise that he uncharacteristically reverted to calling him out pretty crassly via social media.

Nate Diaz wasted no time after Saturday night’s victory over Michael Johnson either when he launched a foul-mouth tirade down the camera: “Conor McGregor, you’re taking everything I work for, motherf**ker.”

Well, in that case, the Dubliner has just one simple message. If you want a shot at the champ, beg for it.
