Conor McGregor is feeling supremely confident coming into his fight vs Chad Mendes, so much so that Dana White says that McGregor was willing to bet 3 million dollars with him and Lorenzo Fertitta that he’ll win by knockout in the second round in his UFC 189 fight Chad Mendes.
White told Jim Rome:
“I can’t even believe I’m going to say this, but, he told Lorenzo and I the other day ‘I’ll bet you $3 million I knock him out in the second round.'”
“I like to bet, I don’t know if I’m that willing to take that bet,” White said. “When I tell you how extremely confident this guy is in himself, it’s fascinating. He is a very unique, fascinating person to listen to. Fun to listen to, and fun to watch.”
“You want to know how confident this kid is?” He is a very unique, fascinating person to listen to. Fun to listen to, and fun to watch.”
