ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER HAS already shown he’s a big fan of Conor McGregor but, ahead of UFC 189 on 11 July, the Terminator star has made it clear just how much he loves the Irish fighter.
“Conor is one of the greatest athletes probably of all time. He has the right combination of the mind and the body and the talent. The two are connected so well with him, which I think is so important in athletics, that you believe 100% in your victory.”
And, ahead of the new Terminator Genisys movie, the actor also defended McGregor’s reputation as a loud mouth, saying he backed it up in the octagon.
“He reminds of me a little bit of the way I always was when I grew up in bodybuilding. The only way you get noticed was if you say outrageous things, and he does that to get noticed.
“And because of that, because he’s a great fighter and because of his personality, he is now becoming the hottest ticket. His fights will be sold out everywhere and he will have the highest viewership.”

Has Pep enjoyed unparalleled success with Bayern? I know it’s hard to follow someone who won the treble, but Bayern have never looked as dangerous playing the ‘Pep’ way as they did when they tore Barca apart playing direct, fast, powerful football.
He’s been great domestically but Dortmund did sort of fall apart around the same time.
Good to see a manager posting some common sense re cultural tactics. Shame LVG is too arrogant to admit his approach doesnt work in england. Leicester have probably the lowest possession stats in the league.
Hiddinks style is working well anyway…
It’s always surprised me why Guardiola has gotten the credit for a system started by Cruyff. I remember when Guardiola decided to leave Barcelona as a player. He had trouble finding a club willing to pay what he thought he was worth. He’s always had an inflated ego.
