McGregor tells Ryan Tubridy he's 'too damn pretty' for UFC Dublin opponent Cole Miller

The Irish fighter isn’t lacking confidence heading into his upcoming fight. But you already knew that, right.

IRISH MMA FIGHTER Conor McGregor made his third appearance on the Late Late Show since shooting to fame last night.

The 25-year-old headlines the UFC event in Dublin’s O2 Arena on 19 July after recovering from a serious knee injury sustained in his win against Max Holloway in Boston back in August.

McGregor has been been talking down Cole Miller’s chances and labelled the American “ugly” before telling Ryan Tubridy he is “too damn pretty”.

    If his goal really is to win another champions league (that’s obviously not going to happen at United in what’s left of his career) then what genuine competitor for the tournament could afford him and more importantly actually want him?

    @Gareth Keenan: i think he just wants to keep playing in the champions league, not necessarily win it again. Maybe he should consider an immediate loan spell with Rovers and help us push through to the group stages of it.

    Big Cristiano fan throughout the years but surely even he must recognise that the equation probably won’t add up the way he wants it too.

    Big money + competitive champions league team + automatic starter in every game.is not realistic in my view.

    He could probably find some good situations where he can get 2 of the 3.

    Will be interested too see what happens. As a utd fan too I think that he might have to find a bit more humility I’d he is to stay relevant in ETH’s plans. Still great on his day.

    Even with this Dr Evil demand level of money, with his level of skill even at this stage in his career the Saudi League would be like if he rocked up to an adults five a side match in the park on a Sunday. He’d be richer than rich but no way would he be satisfied professionally
