Even without Jose Aldo to trash talk now, Conor McGregor is giving deadly interviews.
The Irish superstar, fighting on July 11 for the interim UFC featherweight belt (if you didn't hear), appeared on ESPN this evening and gave a colourful insight into life pre world hysteria.
McGregor recalled a tale of why he took up fighting after he was jumped by four men in Dublin over the head of a girl.
He even spoke about his tougher days on the plumbing sites having to leave for work at 5.30 every morning and what motivates him to be better.
Of course, you still have the classic bravado that we have grown to love from The Notorious but there are some nice gems in here that makes you just think, fair play.
